flip flop insanity


The Crazy Farm

Why does my daughter insists on wearing flip flops to school. It is Wisconsin. It is the middle of winter. It is freakin' cold out there and she wants to expose her toes.

When she was in middle school, she insisted on wearing shoes with three inch heels. I was constantly afraid she would fall off and plummet to the ground, breaking every bone in her body. Ok, maybe I was over reacting. That's what dads do.

Can anybody please explain this to me? I would send the question to "Useless Advice from Useless Men" but I am afraid the answer would be totally useless.

I'm afriad you might be right...

But we may surprise you. In fact, that would surprise ourselves too...

If you don't find it useless, then you may actually be a Useless Man...

What have you started?

Thanks for the useless advice useless man. I once had a useless cat but he went to cat heaven or hell, I am not sure. So now I have to be the useless one hanging around the house getting hair all over the couch and coughing up fur balls.

From this distance, that appeared to be a useful exchange.

I have no idea why they do that. My daughter (old enough to know better) wears open slides all year long. My feet would turn blue and fall off.

Thank you Useless Man for that advice. It was indeed remarkably and totally useless.
