274.9 meters of shoes? How many feet is that?

My little sister once claimed that Crocs are edible. That colors my opinion of anyone I see wearing them.

I cant wait until I see the fat chicks start wearing these split toe shoes, so they really will look like cows.

I'm not a violent man, but if I saw someone wearing those shoes, I don't think I could stop myself from punching them in the face.

My company buys them by the dozen. They are, apparently, fantastic cleanroom shoes.

I bought a pair of Sloggers (new window) just for use in the yard, scooping dog shiat, etc.

They are comfortable, light, and the relatively aggressive bottom sole somehow doesn't get clogged up with dirt like some other shoes. They're perfect for that specific use. I'd never consider wearing them for anything other than that, though.

Technically you can, but I would HIGHLY recommend against it. Of course, if any of you have any questions feel free to ask.

274.9 million dollars spent by broads informing everybody to RUN LIKE HELL THE biatch IS CRAZY seems like a good idea.

I have a pair that I use for house shoes. They are never on my feet in public.

"they made $____________ last quarter".

I can understand the draw for crocs, I don't have any nor do I want any of them, but my daughter loves hers - she can easily put them on and take them off, they don't get soggy when wet and they clean easily. Of course she is 3. For adults? Not so much, but whatever.

The fad I don't understand is Uggs. Why would anyone want to wear those things south of Alaska?

Not that I am aware of but we do have some openings.

Open positions.

And none taken, the clogs are pretty.. blah. Personally I only wear the sneaker/loafer versions. These, are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn and they are about 8 oz's or so.

It's an urban myth type thing. Some camp counselor in Southern CA (Can't remember which off the top of my head) bet the kids that if they could complete some tasks before the summer ended he would boil his (orange colored) crocs and they would eat them. From a technical point of view, you can eat them. You can also eat glass. I wouldn't recommend either.

Is it true that Peter Forsberg invented Crocs as revenge for the foot problems that ended his NHL career?

If so, couldn't he have just poisoned our drinking water instead?

Just not in public, but around the yard and what not.

Yes, but they're classically uncomfortable.

My daughter loves her crocs something fierce. She's two 2 1/2 and will tear up her room when she can't find her blue crocs with the big white croc logo on them. They are great for kids... now me..I dunno.

These shoes are really popular in the medical community. Every time at the doc's office or the hospital, everyone in scrubs is wearing them.

Kind of. I would go into detail, but I won't.
 
2011-10-29 12:43:33 AM
I always hated the things, but ...BUT once I wore a pair, they were the most comfortable things I ever had on my feet. And I constantly have feet problems. Except when wearing the fugliest, dumbest looking shoes ever. Not counting the ones with toes.
At this point, I could give a fat fark what you think of my shoes. My dogs don't hurt, and I can kick them on and off.
Best 5 bucks I ever spent.
