New shoes

I really shouldn't be buying things I don't need right now, primarily because I'm more grossed out by capitalism and consumerism than ever before. Sadly, though, I did grow up in America, so when I see something I like all sorts of U.S.A.-approved rationalizations enter my head, like "Oh, why not!"



I guess that's not really a rationalization. I did actually need a new comb, though. (And look, the shoes came with alternate laces!) They also came with a soft bag touting some lofty principles. (I think "groovyness" should be spelled "grooviness." But otherwise, yes, Mr Fluevog! I agree with you wholeheartedly.)



I have a feeling that bag is just going to end up full of fabric scraps.



Damn, this is what I get for walking home across Spring Street and taking an unintentional detour across Prince.

And now I'm not so sure about the shoes. What do you think? Yea or neigh?

Do they biodegrade?

It's true, I am recovering from at least five nasty stab wounds in my back so I guess I do deserve some new kicks. Unfortunately they're not made of apple cores, though, and shall therefore remain on this earth forever, Pudgie.

I find them awesome in every way. Except for the fact that they are not made from apple cores.

Yay or "neigh?" Those are the choices? So, we either approve or you turn us into horses?
