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!

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

And to think that's all I wear. I tore all the muscles in the bottom of my foot and hyperextended my knee last summer. Those are the only shoes that feel good. I have a lot of different ones though.


I also have a pair that are very similar to this, but have cute tassles.


I am not a lesbian... and not a hippie!

Those are really cute. Much better than the "Jesus Sandals" Birkenstocks that we used to wear. And those are much cuter than the Rainbows from page 1 (in my opinion).

I'd rather cut off my legs and ride in a wheelchair. You should reconsider.

Are you that guy on Jerry Springer that cut his legs off for no good reason? Just sayin'...

I only wear Birks too! (although I am somewhat of a hippie) My sisters were shocked when I showed up to initiation in a pair of regular white dress shoes - it was the first time they had ever seen me in ANYTHING but Birkenstocks, lol.

^^^ 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.

When I first read it, I construed the "Nice comeback" as sarcastic. Then, as I thought about it, I figured out that you were being sincere. Especially since that omegaland has proved to have the posting ability of a 5 year old. But I do see how people got confused. When you quote someone, and then mention putting someone on ignore, it's assumed that it's directed at whomever you quoted, unless otherwise clarifed.

In short (I know, too late), I read it and could see how it could have been taken both ways.

I can read, you just need to structure your sentences a little better. It truly looked like you were attacking CuteASAbug.

You're the only person who read my sentence that way (unless others chose silence). After all, why would I want to put CuteASAbug on ignore when she's been here for some time and she's not mistaken for TomEarp or other "troubled" persons?

Again, pointing to literary analysis or at least basic use of context clues, I'll assume you can't read just as I can also assume you can't construct a sentence well because your first "sentence" is a run-on with the comma instead of a semi-colon. (Former English teacher... )

I'm done with this before it turns into an English debate.

Flip flops are cool and all, but I'm not ready to spend double digits for shoes I might wear in the shower. I've seen some suede flip flops that were cute, but I guess I'm not gonna hear anyone on expensive flip flops considering I'm not into names like that.

I love flip flops. In the summer, they're practically the only things I wear. I don't think I would get suede ones though, since I hate suede footwear and bags. I needed to replace a brown pair, so I went to J. Crew yesterday. Walked out with four pairs. Admitting you have a problem is the first step. I haven't gotten to it yet.

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!
