    Fetish knows no limits. If it exists, there's a fetish for it. It's no less creepy, mind you, but I'm not all that surprised.

    Dear lord... this could mean that a croc fetishist is out there somewhere, hanging around the gardening section. Hold me.

    @tailfeather: I'm just praying there's no Birkenstock fetishist out there lurking around - although it would explain the line of men I saw following me out of TJMaxx the other day.

    I do not condone the Law & Order "Ripped from the Headlines" writing. By the time they get to it, most people have already heard all about it and the plot becomes predictable. Poor writing (because they're mimicking a story) and poor acting.


    But I will always love 'Liv and Elliot.

    What do you mean "they're no good in cold weather"? Tell that to my feet. There's an inch of ice on the ground in Berlin right now, and the faux Uggs (which only come out in this weather) are stopping my toes dropping off. They also provide some grip. It's scary out.


    Oh, and I have big feet and hardly anyone make suitable, purty boots in my size, so poo.

    Go on and string me up, but I fucking say with 100% certainty that I loathe the sort of chattel who line up for this sort of thing. Loathe.


    ITALIAN LEATHER IS SO MUCH MORE SUITED FOR EVERY CONCEIVABLE PURPOSE THE UGG STRIVES FOR.


    Offense meant absolutely, you-know-who (pl.) excluded, but only just.

    I have another one of their (Uggs) styles and they're great hiking boots with support, a zipper, an actual heel and nommy nommy fleece.


    For Ugg-lovers: I recommend highly the Merrell Yeti - suede, fleece lined with a non-slip sole and arch support. And they're not as expensive.

    Yeah erm... I asked my sis if I could borrow a pair of hers for my trip to DC and she was all "go buy your own!" then she told me all excited "the outles has them on sale for $160!!!". Erm... Wha? The she added, "save your money... They're not even warm.". So... Why look like an abominale snow beast if they aren't even warm!?!?!

    By the way although they come from Aussie, your dude patented the name first, and they try to sue the hell out of the origingal makers for using the name. Only buy Aussie ones if you want a real Ugg boot, from Aussie wool. :>

    Hideousness, thy name is Ugg.


    These should never leave the house, ever. They're perfectly appropriate for padding around your apartment in the dead of winter but in public? How about SHOES?

    Is it just me, or does the type who owns Uggs seem to only wear Uggs and incredibly uncomfortable-looking heels? You know, Uggs with their sweatpants and stiletto boots with their jeans. Nothing in between.

    @pistachioRX: I know this isn't ALL Ugg wearers, of course, but I've noticed this in some of my peers here in NYC. If they're not in four-inch heels, they're sliding into their Uggs and ROARING about how COMFORTABLE they ARE.


    I'm like..."if you wore normal shoes sometimes, you'd see that your Uggs actually aren't all that, but I'm just a dork with congenital foot problems and all I can wear are sturdy gunboats with orthotics anyway, so what the fuck would I know about having to go to the podiatrist?"

    I love Uggs about as much as I love Crocs, which is not-at-all-I'd-rather-die-than-have-them-touch-my-feet intense.


    I am, however, considering a real winter boot. We've had 14 inches of show IN THE PAST 3 DAYS here in Lower Crapovia, with 6" and high winds expected for tonight and "significant snow" (whatever the hell that is) for tomorrow night. My commute this morning sucked ass and my dress booties were soaked through before I even had left my driveway.


    As much as I hatehatehate the thought of it, if Ugg makes a waterproof, snow-worthy version that would keep my feet dry as well as make them feel like they were cased in a cocoon of cozy fluff, then I'll suck it up and buy a pair.

    My mom just bought a pair of Uggs. Now I'm not hating on my mom, but this is the same woman who once sported those big puffy Reebok things and wore them well into the late nineties. That should tell you just about everything you need to know about their trendiness.
