What in the?

The end of the world is near - just check out these boots/flip-flops (or boots/thongs if you are Karl's grandma.)

Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap! Is this seriously a fashion item? I bet Ross wears these around with his manpris, doesn't he? Waiting for his watched pot never to boil over?

I'd like to know what those poor people in the boot/thong factory in Indonesia were thinking while building these boot/thongs! Probably, "What the #%#$%&?!!??"

So that's how it's gonna be, huh Lindy? Girl, you better check yo self, before you wreck yo self.

Oh man - all the sudden my husband became an urban woman . . . from the south.

But just to set the record straight - he doesn't wear these with his manpris - he wears these for going out.

oh Lindy, you got Ross good!! Nice work, girlfriend. I gotta give you props.

Kris Tina said...

Holy crap - now Toddcat is also an urban woman from the south . . . but I must admit that's not much of a stretch for him.

I don't know what you are trying to imply, but I have never in my life lived in the South or an urban environment. So I guess the joke is on you. Oh, snap!

There are no words. There are just no words.

(Also, Lindy, ZING! That is an excellent, excellent comment.)

Well, well, well--it would appear that I hit a sore note with Ross. I can only imagine that's because only does he wear these shoes, but also he designed them. I imagine when he designed them he was living in an urban area of Little Rock, hence the slang.

Also, you better check YOURself before you wriggity wreck yourself. I must have visited Ross in Arkansas to pick up this kind of an insult.

Wow. Basically the most useless pair of shoes/boots/sandals/crap ever.

lanni said...

those are the ugliest f-ing shoes i have ever seen.

I am so glad you remembered that story about good ol' grandma, who by the way, would be horrified by these thong boots.

Huh... haven't checked over here in a while, and I must say, I am almost speechless... so is it a boot? Is it a sandal? Do you wear them to the beach? (Because they would be most useless in a snowstorm...) Exactly WHERE would one wear these particular shoes... or do they even qualify to be classified as such? Let's call them "footwear" until the verdict is in! :)

And for the record, (after the whole "Manpri-Debacle"), Ross' standing is still in question... so if I ever personally see him wearing these... sigh... Well, I just could not ever look him in the eye again... ever!
