Exclamation flip flops are a flop sometimes

The ladies have a thread on the problems that flip flops present, but this is a more universal topic. Some years ago I saw a girl on a bicycle wearing them; as she pushed on the pedals, they arched downward and caught her foot in the bicycle chain. I was driving and stopped to help; as I did so others stopped to help, too. This was just before cell phones were common.
They are fine for the beach and shower, but are not exactly protective.

I knew a French guy who always wore them to work. His name was Philippe F'Eloppe. Sorry, I couldn't resist that one!

Flip-flops are a flop ALL of the time! In fact, flip-flops are a plague on mankind. PERIOD! I was at the mall last Saturday and it seemed like at least seven out every ten women/girls I saw were wearing the g--damn things. Oh, yeah, saw more than a few guys sporting them too. Revolting! In the Navy, those things were called shower shoes because that's where you wore them to prevent slipping and falling and busting your ass in the shower. The notion of people wearing those things in public absolutely mystifies me. In short, I hate them! That said, I wish I had stock in the company or companies that make flip-flops, I'd be richer than God.

This has been discussed in a previous post, but bares repeating. Flip-flops are not ony ugly, they are bad for the feet and can be dangerous to walk in the way they dont fit on your feet.

thank u MrFoot 123, u should change yr name to dailaughing....
how many men does it take to change a pair of flip flops ?
None, cos no men wear them...
How many women does it take to change a pair of flip flops?
None, cos real women would be too embarrassed...
How many shop assistants would it take to change a pair of flip flops?
All of them, they'd all want to upgrade the customer to something decent....
