Men wearing flipflops … arrest them!

Women carrying away dead badgers – arrest them!

I find fat birds who walk really slowly far more offensive

that'll be pretty much 99% of the female population then 🙂

Stupid lost-post website nonsense – thought this was fixed.

My girlfriend has demanded that I go out and buy some Havaianas

My girlfriend just bought me some flip flops. From this, i deduce that fusty uptight older women find flip flops repulsive, whereas young vivacious ones think they are hawt. 🙂

Our summer is not hot enough or long enough. Its just a lazy, thuggish way of dressing. I don't want to see your minging feet and pasty white legs thank you, keep them for your bedroom.

I wear the same stuff in the winter 🙂
December:

I wear these and I couldn't care less what I look like in them. Just off to pedal down the pub with them on too. With V12's 😯

Right,
Flip-flops = OK.
Action sandals = fashion faux pas, completely indefensible.

I've just come back from Tangier and quite frankly you would look a bit odd wearing shoes. There were even some men washing their feet in a fountain in the square!!!!! 😯

I said it 12 months ago, I'll say it again….. men in flip flops/birkenstock/mephisto look great. Anything else in hot weather seems so…….. repressed. Teva also ok, but not any other velcro sandal… Just make sure you cut your toenails please!

Flipflops are the way to go as long as you have decent shorts and shirt, if you wear Jesus sandals and such like then you need to be visited by the fashion police. Football/sports apparel should be banned unless your actually doing the sporting activity whilst wearing it.

Down in the Devon/Cornwall coastal area where I hail from flip-flops is a pretty normal footwear choice… generally a flip flops wearer is more likely to be sane than say… someone wearing trainers innit bruv.. sand in yer sweaty trainers is no fun shirley

my g/f waits till I'm really sweaty and then surreptitiously(surreptitiously) sniffs me

Your joking right? you don't really have a girlfriend do you?
What else can g/f stand for 😯

you don't really have a girlfriend do you?

no, she's actually a woman 🙂

flipflops on blokes = wrong
crocs on anyone = wrong
spd sandals = very wrong

What!!??

I live in them…as do all my non chav mates.

I reckon its just you city folk getting all frustrated about not living somewhere that people have more space and like having more space aroud their feet as well.

I also live in surf clobber as its all the shops round here sell.

Men's feet are not a pretty sight – fact!

Men do not have a pedicure – fact!

Men don't always cut their toenails – fact!

Men sometimes have fungal infections – fact!

Men don't always wash their feet – fact!

and this applies to most women too, i should know i look at feet all day for my job..!!

Well, I've been a wee bit naughty in resurrecting this. 😈

But, dammit, I still feel the same as last year. 😯

Thanks for joining in with the spirit in which the original post was intended. 8)

no, she's actually a woman

I imagine your relationship with a lady/woman/girlfriend to be like that of the protagonist in McCarthy's Child of God 🙂

Jeez c_g, some of us here are from Oz, Far North Queensland to be precise, and thongs (flipflops to you) are dress shoes for us. Even the hot sheilas wear them.

As far as my feet smelling because they are unwashed, that's a bit insulting. I wash my feet once a year whether they need it or not.

And as for socks and sandals, that's my winter snow tramping rig.

do tell ?

Sandals myself. I like to wear them after riding. But I have large, hairy, but otherwise quite normal feet (apart from oversized big-toes). I quite like feet actually. I think women going barefoot is nice. Could be borderline fetish!

she says:
"Charming! He was a necrophiliac and possible paedophile! Amazed they can read! And my fav Cormac McCarthy too!"

My pet hate on men has always been Pringle type jumpers slung over shoulders, it's a bit too Wham or Golf club/Rugby club and makes me cringe big time. Thongs(flip flops) I don't have an issue with if your feet look ok.

Bloody hell! Started reading the thread, saw a Rudeboy comment, realised how old it was, and skipped here to express my astonishment. Who resurrected the thread?

the original culprit 🙂

Have we had pictures of your GF's bottom yet? 🙂

Light relief innit? 😉

I gave up on flip-flops after a front of flip-flop folding/toe joint/tarmac interface whilst running along… Uuurgh – the memory of it makes me shudder! 😥

Running in flip-flops requires a special technique, as demonstrated
here.

Personally I've ridden bikes, played cricket and operated chainsaws wearing them. They are true multi-purpose footwear.

So, am I allowed to go down Waitrose in my PJ bottoms, a vest and my flip flops?

PS I'm thinking about not showering before the trip either.

I tried skateboarding in flip flops yesterday – now that doesn't work.

Me wearing cowboy boots ok?

I hate wearing flip flops. They're impossible to walk properly in and make stupid flapping sounds. No one wants to see my feet anyway.

make stupid flapping sounds

Doh! that's why their called FlipFlops, Took me ages to get used to wearing them with all the rubbing between me toes, now I have grown tougher (non fungal) Skin I wear mine quit happily, I may even invest in a new pair. 😀

As much as I now believe C_G to be a badger collecting weirdo, she's bang on the money with this. I live in shorts 12 months a year, but would never be seen in sandals/flip-flops unless I was on a beach, and that's never happened yet.
Must be an age thing on here……. 😉

Its hard to skip in flip-flops

Flip flops are great – but they must be the real deal – cheap chinese rubber ones non of your "sports sandal" or birkenstocks please.

flip flops, fine. You don't look a knob in shorts with flipflops

Just been to the park in mine with my lad – perfect
