Okay I'm showing my age here, but are Rainbows to today's college kids what Birkenstock's were to mine (early/mid 90s). Basically expensive but indistructible sandals that mold to your feet that you never want to take off even though they look like crap?

I think Rainbows are cuter than Birkenstocks.

Personally I never wear flipflops although my D has way too many pairs to count. I find it uncomfortable to have something between my toes.

I'm no racist by any means, but what is it with black guys and sneakers?

Nice comeback. I think we've found our newest candidate for the ignore feature.

Oh I think I forgot that we can only talk about what white people do, not black. Sorry!

^^^ See, that quote right there is a result of miscommunication. I responded to cuteASAbug's comeback with:

I actually meant that her comeback was nice. When I thought we had someone to ignore, I was referring to omegaland with his dumb remark about white people and flip flops. That's one of the dumbest things I've read in some time on GC. Flip flops are universal and comfortable as all get out. Some folks pay more than others, but that's what they can do.

Some folks like controversy, but that's on them. I like flip flops, and so do millions of others. No racism on my part.

Recently, I've been hearing that black people don't wear flip-flops. WTF?! I know that DMX gave Jay-Z some static for being seen wearing them, but an entire race of people don't wear them at all?

That means I have to get rid of my Havaianas!

I see people of all colors wearing flip flops. My kids go to an ethinicallly diverse daycare and they had to ban flip flops because so many of the kids were wearing them and getting hurt when they played outside.

Birkenstocks have a bad rep now of only being worn by hippies or lesbians

Now...but I do remember them being popular 10 or so years ago.

No because they don't look like crap. People wear flip flops to clubs and lounges. You wear birks if you smoke the pot, are a vegan, and you know, enjoy sex with animals.
