More Freaky Sh*t: Men Wearing Purple Crocs

Last night I arrived home from Omaha. I was at the airport and hustling my way through the terminal heading towards the parking shuttles.
It was late. Not many people around.
My head was down as I wheeled my luggage behind me.

I spot a pair of purple Crocs heading towards me.
Big Purple Crocs.
On a man.
Barney feet.
I’m sorry. Purple Crocs on a man is so wrong.
Yes you are right, they are horrible, perhaps if Gort from The film ‘the day the earth stood still’ had landed in the era of flower power he would have worn these . By the way your about page is the best Ive ever read, keep blogging.
Hi, ATM (hope you don’t mind the acronym). I have to admit that I have my own pair of Crocs. I resisted but after drinking some Belgian beer I somehow ended up buying a dark orange pair.
I rarely wear them and when I do, I look down at my feet and am appalled. They are comfortable if butt-ugly.
I thought I had accepted them and had dealt with my Croc Issues. Seeing a purple pair on a man was a bit setback.
Thank you for your compliment on my About page. I wrote it from the heart and I am glad to hear that you liked it.
I visited your blog – what a nice site design you have! How life-affirming and adventurous to move to another country!
I was with a group of people standing outside a restaurant waiting for our table to open up. A man walked by wearing YELLOW Crocs. Our conversation reverted to dead silence as he walked by.
I once saw a man wearing red Crocs while driving a Harley Davidson motorcycle.
So wrong.
‘Nuf sed.
Jake: A Harley and Crocs? I would think that one would negate the other creating an Oxymoronic Sitchashun whereby the person wearing the Crocs would vanish leaving a waxy smear on the ground the same color as the Crocs.
