I couldn’t think of a better blog title than that, but I’ve been making notes in my PDA about things I’m seeing and incredulously trying to figure out the logic behind..
Et voila, here’s the list!
Crocs in Winter
We got a crazy amount of snow in Canada (thanks Texas!) and I went back for a bit to kind of walk around and take in the sights, and breathe the smog-filled air again.
It was definitely minus 20 or so, windchill, and huge snow banks (with snow still falling) in effect.
I saw a girl wearing a pair of bright orange Crocs.. with socks. In the snow. With the slush. With the ice. With the salt. Everywhere.
Dude,.. WTF!?!?!?!?!?
Enough said.
Sunglasses Inside
I have NEVER understood this. Unless you have some seriously awful problems with your eyes and you’re sensitive to light, I do NOT see the reason why girls especially, have to wear sunglasses inside.
This one princess got on the subway, and she was decked out in her Juicy Couture, had her headband in, makeup slopped on so thick it looked like a second skin, and UGG boots (which by the way I’m starting to almost think are a good pair of boots)…
And the biggest pair of sunglasses EVER on her face.
I kept staring at her, totally incredulous (the subway lights weren’t bright by any means), and it was clear she was uncomfortable because she knew I was staring at her, and she kept shifting in her seat. I just kept thinking: I hope you’re not wearing them inside just to make a statement that you’re like a celebrity…. but not.
Right I’m no fashion guru, most of my wardrobe is 5 – 6 years old. However Crocs – never ! Whatever the weather. Saddest thing is when you see a whole family wearing them together – shudder. Lego shoes. I understand the comfort practicalities, it’s just the external shell that I can’t comprehend.
No offence intended to die hard croc fans but they just don’t float my boat.
Oh quite possibly. Maybe I’ll tell him that next time. Haha. He’s a stubborn SOB, you can’t talk him out of something if he’s decided he likes it 😉
Val: True, but I don’t think that was it… *shrug* Could be right!
Athena: I don’t find Crocs particularly comfortable either. I don’t know what the hype is all about..
Laura: Doesn’t that make his eyes get bigger to let in more light, and screw with his vision? I don’t get it…
Mel: I wear my sunglasses anywhere there’s really strong sun light, but never inside.. :\ I find it strange…
I’m with you, FB. I don’t understand Crocs even in the summer time. Of course, I live in the South and last week was in the upper 70’s to lower 80’s and they were out in abundance. I can tolerate them on children (ages 7 and under) for the summertime but under NO circumstances should ANYONE wear them in the winter.
I admit, I’m OCD about wearing my sunglasses, but only when I’m actually out in the sun, never indoors or at night, but each to their own. 🙂
I’m with Athena on the crocs. Hehe. And I always bug my fiance because he insists on wearing his sunglasses inside dark bars at nighttime! He never gives a reason why but he sure isn’t a celebrity (yet anyway… lol). At least they don’t make him look like a bug though. I never really got into the oversized sunglasses thing.
Oh hey that was me!
Just kidding 🙂 I agree with all your observations. Actually, crocs don’t make sense to me even in the summer. *Maybe* while gardening, but that’s still pushing it.
I wear sunglasses in the grocery store when I’m not wearing any makeup. Its slightly ridiculous, but a nice cover-up. Or maybe she had a black eye? Pink eye? You never know.
