When reason "x" is "because we don't like your kind" it IS a hate crime. BTW, enormous red fonts were used to convey the point that the issue has...
Certainly true for Europe. Here in the Pacific, however, we've little choice, as it would take weeks to get anywhere at all by boat. FWIW, I've...
Time to get another tailor. I can't imagine any of them are so flush with business right now that they can afford to lose a paying customer....
Welcome, costals! Thanks for the link and for posting your views on the barefoot lifestyle. I often relate barefooting as a type of sport, as...
Great comic, ganesha! bige1030, if someone were barefoot in a suit, people would probably think that they were Paul McCartney :)
True, and I agree that putting one's feet up is rude, but the bottom of the barefooter's feet are likely cleaner than the bottom of the shoddie's...
An exaggeration at best. As Myranya mentioned, there's a great deal of flexibility these days. Furthermore, the increasing trend towards...
Although not shoe-related, another bit of bizarre kit seen recently are these keyboard pants: [IMG] One has to wonder how long it will be until...
+1 Myranya, you are a great asset to this forum. Your research, writing and objectivity are absolutely superb. :cheers2:

All hail Ganesha, now pay your tithe! I never had an issue here (graduated in 2003); the other students completely ignored it; of course, at...
Bah, I think you're just stocking our members and then spinning a yarn - that really ankles me. Now stop being a heel and toe the line or it'll be...
Your rep is fine with me, jagerhans. While I don't eat mammals, birds or reptiles, I find the hypocrisy of those who do, yet condemn hunting as...
We're very fortunate not to have snakes here. I do hikes quite often and the benefits go beyond the bottom of your feet. A correct gait over...
QFT. Anything under 20C and I'm looking for the next flight out...:p
For me, the whole issue is turned on it's head, as white folks here ARE the minority. Depending on the location, when you show up barefoot, you're...
Your response was right on the money, barefootjaime. There's absolutely nothing she can do, as you're completely in the right. Who knows, perhaps...
A rather surprising announcement, given the UK's reputation for barefoot tolerance. Perhaps it's time for UK barefooters to mount a challenge...
