The backlash has already started

Within mere minutes of the posting of my Croc love, I received this IM from my Friend Susan Stripling well known photographer and lover of all things Fashion. She was Carrie on Sex and the City before there was a Carrie.

susanstripling (11:04:38 PM): HOLD ON A GOD***** SECOND
susanstripling (11:04:43 PM): KIMBERLEY ANDERSON
susanstripling (11:04:52 PM): WHAT THE MOTHER******* ****ALL IS ON YOUR ****ING FEET?

I've known Susan since she was a mere newbie shooting on a freaking Hasselblad. I've watched her climb the photographic ladder of success, richly deserved. I've held her hair back while she was sick in Vegas, I've shopped with her and convinced her that she should totally buy those boots that could have fed a family of 4 for a week, and I've traveled to exotic locales with her. She knows I am from MILWAUKEE.

Her Facebook update now reads

There is nothing quite like the pain of watching a formerly rational friend buy a pair of Crocs and proclaim them "jammies for the feet!"

The girl has 1556 friends and she is macking on pink Crocs from a 40-something chick from the Midwest?? Then she sends me this picture

8crocs

I love you Susie. Really.

But they are like Lifetime Movie Jammies for your Feet. Swear.

  1. BUT, oh dear one. Didn't TP himself call oh miss susan/carrie out by HER WEARING AN ACTUAL PAIR OF CROCS AT A WEDDING?!?!?!?!

    Oh, yes. Yes, he did.

    But in her defense, they were soooooooooooo NOT pink.
