So today I met a nice woman, collecting her child from the same school as mine. I'd never seen her before (I usually collect from after school club), and we passed a few words about the weather.

Then I noticed what she was wearing on her feet, and started to wonder if I could ever be good friends with her. Confused

AIBU?

We can only tell if YABU if you tell us what she was wearing...as you can see, no-one is bothered by the philosophy behind it all!

It's like a fucking outbreak of elephantiasis (don't put it in Google images I SAID DON'T!). And people pay HUNDREDS for the privilege! I feel like I'm the only sane woman left living

Was it those Nike Trainers that look like Pigs Feet?

TragicallyHip · 05/04/2011 22:30

OMG that is wrong...just wrong!!

Designers must get really bored sometimes to come out with this hideousness!

LynetteScavo · 05/04/2011 22:35

PMSL at the thought of an adult in Lelly Kellies! I would have to befriend such a person for life! They would probably hand out small bags of Haribo on their birthday.

Still PMSL at the Hoof Boots. I would feel compelled to trot everywhere if I wore them!
