I like my flip-flops...And I like wearing them whenever there isn't 2 feet of snow on the ground

I agree with what you are saying. To satisfy the people in hot climates you need to say that flip flops are ok when you are wearing shorts. If you are wearing pants and flip flops then you look like a douche.

Maybe someone in Jersey would look like a douche, but here in SD this is the norm. Most of the time you probably look more out of whack wearing shoes than flip flops.

Goddammit. Stop with the flip-flops unless there's sand or carpet beneath them. You look like a jackass and I certainly don't need to hear the sound of them scraping the ground everywhere you walk.

I live in Florida where it is 90 degrees 364 days of the year. Please go [censored] yourself.

Well said yesterday it was freezing here (70 or so) and I don't think I saw more than 10 people not wearing Reefs or Rainbows in this area...

Where's the waaaaahmbulance when you need it? I lived in Miami for 3 years. Never wore flip-flops once. Shorts year-round and sneakers were fine. But I didn't mind seeing Tevas, Birkenstocks, or other variety of sandals. Flip-flops are for dorm-hall bathrooms.

The ones from Old Navy that cost $3, yes. I think a nice pair of Reefs is perfectly acceptable in public, though.

I do agree with you in one sense though...people should pick up their damn feet when wearing them.

I guess pretty much everybody in Hawaii, Micronesia, Polynesia, and Asia is a douche then.

They should come to Americans to learn how to wear neckties in the desert.

why would you be in long-sleeve shirts and jeans in 100+ degrees w/ humidity?

[/ QUOTE ]
please show me where in my post that i said i wore this?

[ QUOTE ]
do you wear them with long-sleeve shirts and jeans/slacks?

[/ QUOTE ]
no. but i also don't get carried away when people do, its really a dumb thing to get worked up about.

basically when its hot i want as little on me as possible, end of discussion. i don't see where that is a problem, plus i spend a lot of time in my offseason around a lakehouse where my feet will be in and out of water so they are a must (if you dig up an old thread about this EXACT SAME SUBJECT you will see that peachy mentioned this as well).
