Is it just me, or does the entire world appear to have been taken over by the deadly curse of Fisher Price Feet? Men, women and children all over the country, and indeed overseas - the virus appears to have spread worldwide - are walking around with their hooves encased in plastic toys.
For those who have managed to escape this scary phenomenon, I present to you Crocs.
Plastic shoes in a variety of garish colours, which for some reason the accompanying words 'comfy' and 'colourful' have managed to cause grown men and women to abandon all sense of style and reason and wear these items with vigour.
Now don't get me wrong, I am all in favour of comfy. Even colourful. (Blue Suede Shoes anyone?) I mean I own many pairs of flipflops, and there is even a pink stripey set in the pile somewhere. However, there were, I thought, times and places for such attire, and only the few delighted in regularly startling their peers with mad footwear.
It seems I am wrong. Gone are the days of a simpler time. Black, brown, navy. White if you're from Essex, or you're a girl and it's summer. Red if you feel like scandalising the office. Now an entire nation is being bombarded with yellow, orange and lime green, worn with reckless abandon and without a moment's hesitation. How long can it last I ask myself. How can people be that happy when they are wearing shoes quite that ugly?
And then I look down at my own worn trotters, scarred and blistered from those very pretty shoes and wonder if it's worth it. Pah, of course it is.
I shall wait earnestly for the rest of you to come to your senses.

I'm completely with you. Crocs are everywhere over here, hadn't realised they had made it over to the UK. There isn't an excuse that I can see for them - bring on the red, strappy heels and to hell with the blisters!
It's insane, they're all at it. Oxford on a Saturday is awash. You look down and the floor looks like a bag of skittles. Utterly bizarre. Btw, thanks for the tag - I'll take that up next. How do I tag others?
Why would you want your feet to look as though they are encased in a brightly-coloured pasty?
To tag someone, just add their name at the end of the meme, or in your intro to it, and link to them.
Now all became clear, many thanks for the help in this question.
