Recently I saw an article on the 50 worst inventions of all time. I wrote a bit about it, stating that I didn’t think Crocs deserved to be on the list, alongside the likes of Agent Orange and subprime mortrgages.
Anyway, after writing that I discovered that much like feelings about me, Crocs elicit only one of two very diverse reactions: LOVE THEM!!!- I have 3 pairs or HATE THEM!!!- I’d rather walk barefoot over broken Coke bottles than be seen wearing them.
So for all you Crocs haters- and you know who you are- I thought I’d show you this. I knew you guys needed a laugh.
Now, after seeing that, I assumed that all male turtles had really good taste since he chose a Croc for his love interest. However, I discovered I was wrong when I saw this just a couple of minutes later.
Apparently any old port shoe in a storm you know–and it would appear there’s no foreplay to boot! It’s all about them you know.
I guess if the female turtle in a couple dies, they could just toss a bunch of old shoes out there with the guy left behind and he’d think he was Hugh Hefner. Men.

i use a combo of shea butter and aloe vera moisturizer. Works great. I use shea butter on my lips, around my eyes and nose (dry areas), My father swears by vasoline.
p.s. I dropped your name on Gina's post, Barb. ;)
I spotted that tortoise and his Croc out to dinner several weeks ago; the tortoise paid the check and neither of them texted or used their cell phones during the meal, focusing entirely on each other’s company. It looked as though it was a celebratory meal of some sort. He was very well-dressed and looked very handsome; she–well she did the best she could with what she has to work with.
They seemed like a very nice couple, and it’s kinda disappointing to see that they have a sex tape all over the ‘net, but these days who doesn’t?
Be happy (wearing your ugly-assed shoes).
I don’t even have them on today thank you very much! I was thinking of you when I saw this. I knew you’d enjoy it.
BTW- I’m waiting for them to come out in stilettos. Maybe then I could actually walk across the bedroom in 5″ heels. Doug would be so happy.

Just be careful you don’t run into a horny stiletto-fetish tortoise. BTW, who knew tortoises were so well-endowed? Yeah, I know; I’m seeing my psychiatrist in 15 minutes.
Love ya.
Be Happy.
Thanks for my laugh of the day…..they have been few and far between today!!
What’s up, or down in your case today Sunblossom?
Just job stuff….working with a substitute wedding planner for the church I work for…..she didn’t think I did my job exactly right and e-mailed everyone she could think of to report it as so…..primarily to cover her own butt….like I don’t already have a lot of headaches here already…..I know I know, how hard can it be working in a church…..well let me tell ya…………….what a croc….
Sunblossom, don’t stand too close to that wedding planner–lightning bolts and all, you know. So you’ve got to counter her e-mail campaign with one of your own reminding everyone of your sterling reputation and satisfied brides. That, or leave her to Heaven.
Be happy (and I’m happy I gave you a giggle).
No worries about that…..everyone already knows how great I am…ha…..and what a pain she is……her reputation precedes her most of the time…..I’m better today in any event….my youngest child (25) is home for a brief visit…..craving a hug from him when I p/u at the airport in about two hours….yay
Should I send Mae to her? That’ll fix her ass.
Excellent suggestion…I actually have a list…Mae could just go from one to the next, fixin’ everyone!!!!
I’m glad to see you’re doing better today.
Way back when when I was self-employed and it was still a man’s world in business here, I actually started taping some of my phone conversations with certain people just to cover my ass.
I had strongly urged one man to get 5K extra copies printed of his brochure.(Most of the cost of printing back then was in the set-up.)
Anyway, the skinflint ordered just enough to get by. Then when he needed more he bitched and said he’d ordered more. What was wrong with me? He should’ve done business with a man!
What a shock he had when I played the conversation back to him with his voice on it, placing his order. It was fabulous!
A girl after my own heart…..pre-e-mail I used to snail (or should I say turtle) mail schedules to a particular group, who when they “forgot” to show up as scheduled claimed it was because they never received their schedule…..I got so sick of being blamed for their sorrowful planning, I actually started copying the envelopes with their names and postage on it to prove I mailed them, how sorry is that……but it did give me proof and cover my butt a couple of times
Back then at least, trying to blame a business problem on a woman was not that uncommon. I fixed his little red wagon though.
I’ll keep on the lookout. I’d hate to run into a tortoise with a fetish.
I agree his guy parts were impressive. Do you think they make Extenze for tortoises? Did you hear him squeaking? That was a hoot.
Have a good shrinking. I go next week.

Hi Meigler,
Cute blog post! My husband is a reformed Croc hater. Seems pretty much everyone wears Crocs in the Mexican beach town where we go in the winter…and most of these folks were gettin’ on and looking pretty creaky in their Crocs. I think my husband thought resisting Crocs meant he was still ‘youngish’. He also wasn’t into the garrish Crayola colors. However, that all changed when we wandered into the Crocs store in Puerto Vallarta and he tried on some low key, beige, suede-finish Crocs. Between this newer style and the comfort, he was converted.
Hi Lisa, thanks for the compliment. Glad to hear about your husband. I think there are actually a lot of Crocs converts; however most are still on the downlow. LOL
Would I wear them to somewhere posh? No; but if you’ve got to out all day, they are a really good choice unless you’re going to be carried about on your throne all day by 4 buff guys and your feet won’t touch the ground.
In that case, I guess you could wear whatever shoes you wanted, even if you couldn’t stand for very long without your feet killing you.
What were we talking about? I got distracted.
horny little creatures. Typical male, has to stick it in any hole he can find. I HATE CROCS… bought some for a friend who loves them, but you will never see me w/one of those things. I have thin legs, i would look like Herman Munster.
Your utter disgust with all things Crocs is known far and wide Miss Lynette. I’m amazed you bought a pair, even if it was for a friend. (You know once you touch a pair you carry the mark for life.)
You looking like Herman Munster. now that would be a site!
Yes, I know Crocs are fugly!!
has anyone out there bought the new wedge sandals made by Crocs. have seen some ads for them – but haven’t gone looking in the stores for them. if they are comfy like the originals (i have 3 pairs!) might have to get a pair – more attractive looking also!
Hi Ladysmith. Glad to meet another Crocs lover! I haven’t tried them yet, but I’m thinking about it. If you get a pair before I do, pls let me know how they are.
Oh no, tortoise inbreeding – I knew there had to be another way to make these shoes less ugly.
Darwin would approve!
Have you been talking to Yakkity Miss Scuba?
Yeah, she introduced the two of them.
I have the turtle, but not the Crocs! Looks like I should buy a grey pair to keep Buster company.
Hi Sugisme. I wouldn’t worry about gettinga new pair. I’d probably just go to a resale shop. Besides Buster would probably want a partner with a little experience, unless he’s one of those nut jobs who thinks he can only be with a virgin. LOL
You’re right. Poor Buster is a virgin (we’ve had him for 19 years now). I’m thinking that a USED croc may be worked in & kinder. Oh, this is bad! I’ll stop now. ha!
I have a good friend with a Greek land tortoise who is 33, I think. Perhaps Belinda and Buster could hook up; then he wouldn’t need the Croc!
Don’t worry about stopping now. The best of us are just a little bit off I think! At least we’re not boring…
That woman will do anything to get more Crocs off the street! She thinks it’s a mission from God. I’m surprised she hasn’t started taking them right off people’s feet. (She’s not well, you know.) That’s why we’re good friends.
LOL!
