Crocs.

Let me start off by saying... I HATE CROCS!!!! Yes, inanimate objects can be annoying too.

Son of a bitch! I HATE THEM!

I am amazed at how popular they are. I can only assume this is because "But they are so comfortable!" I'm sorry, but nothing can be THAT comfortable that you are willing to wear something so hideous. Surely there are other, better looking shoes that are just as comfy. And not only are people subjecting themselves to this gawd awfulness, they are putting these horrid things on their children's feet! Why? Because it's easy to get on and off. Lazy!!

There is even a store in some mall that only sells Crocs. It's a good thing there isn't one here. I might end up on the news for throwing rotten eggs at them.

Anywho, when they first started out, they had one basic design:

*shudder*

I can't help but think these things have got to make your feet super stinky. Granted, it has air holes, but what if it rains? Screwed!

After a while sales apparently declined, because there was talk of the Crocs company going bankrupt. Oh how happy that news made me! I might have even shed a tear. Or two.

Oh, but they weren't going down without a fight. They came back and decided to come out with more designs, such as:

Want to know the name of those? The first is the "Sexi Flip" and the second is the "Sexi Sling Back". *blank face* Those are sexy? Maybe if you're a 60 year old mumu wearing crazy cat lady. For everyone else, not so much.

You want to know what really chaps my hide?

*thud*

Let me stop for a second and explain that I am a big fan of Converse. I have somewhere around 10 pairs of Chucks. And I love them. So, when I saw that these bastards of the shoe world dared put out a tennis shoe that resembles Chucks, I about fell out of my seat. Hey, fuckers! Why don't you just stick to your crappy sandals and stinky clogs, and stop stealing real shoe company designs.

I wonder how many people will be browsing through their photo albums 10, 20 years from now and gasp at the hideous Crocs that adorn their stinky feet. You know, like when I look through my childhood photos and regret the lacy hair ribbons, the popped collars, the rat tail and the leggings.

I really can't wait until these shoe abominations are removed from the face of the earth.
