Crocs...all the craze

I read this article in Newsweek that was written by a true Croc hater. I laughed out loud. I know they are not the most stylish shoes and they are always on the "worst things to wear" lists; however, I do own a pair and I'm not ashamed to wear them. I especially liked this paragraph from the article:


If you think about it, the Crocs company should really be admired. P. T. Barnum would be proud. They've managed to separate money from the wallets of millions and millions of seemingly sane people who wake up, look in the closet, and actually decide: "Today I'll leave the house wearing these neon-green Dutch bubble shoes with Swiss-cheese holes in them. Maybe I'll even buy some little plastic strawberries or bananas and jam them in the sweat holes, just to jazz things up and make the bacteria incubate faster." That's fine. I say do whatever you want in the privacy of your own home. Let your Crocs freak flag fly. But don't make the rest of us watch.

  1. I just read that article and had tears running down my face, I was laughing so hard. By the way, I looked at all the sites you like that you have linked on your sidebar, and I kind of wish I hadn't . . . WAY too cute stuff; makes my stuff look BORING! Now I feel like I have to get new stuff :)
