How Could it Get Worse?

I don't claim to be a fashion guru. I don't know what color is "in" this season. I could care less if you wear white after Labor Day. But there are somethings... just so horrid, I don't know how a person could let themselves go so far.

I saw a man wearing socks and sandals.

Sandals were made with the intent of not wearing socks. Don't mess it up with socks! That's like wearing a beanie under your visor.

But that wasn't enough for some people. No. Someone had to create *gulp* Crocs.

Yes. Crocs. Not only does the name not sound appealing, but have you seen them?!

Yet still, someone had to take it a step farther... just when you thought it was safe to go to the boardwalk, someone's wearing: Socks 'N Crocs!








Though I don't condone the hideous footwear, I would hope that the American people would have the common sense to not wear socks with them. This is a crime and people should be fined.

Okay so now our paylesses have been infected with crocs. I guess it can't get any worse. Unless...

Yes Unless someone decides to create an item so useless, so dumb, that the Crocs customers could only buy into it.

Jibbitz.

Some guy in a business meeting said, "You know those holes in the Crocs, what are they for?"
"Nothing really."
"Well what if we got something to stick in them, and have stars, and clouds, and cartoon characters on them."

AND someone said, YES. That's a GREAT idea!

Jibbitz are like charms on a charm bracelet, but for the holes in your Crocs.










Crocs and Socks and Jibbitz, Oh FUCKING My!

Some may argue for Crocs...

They're comfortable, they're accessible, they're convienent...

SO WERE FANNY PACKS!

Crocs are the New Millenium's Fanny Pack

I suppose they're okay for children, but they are not something for adults.

The next time you think, "Hey, I think I'll try a pair of Crocs out." Imagine yourself wearing a fannypack, and never getting laid again.

The great tragedy of all this is the inventor of the Jibbitz will become wildly rich and successful...

jibbitz was acquired by crocs inc for 10 mil... with an additional 10 mil payment possible. Jibbitz was started by a mom in her basement.
