    How about sandals, or smoking a pipe?

    How about scented candles?

    WTF and why?

    Only if they're novelty slippers and accompanied by pink pyjamas in a supermarket. Then yes. Classy and loaded.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Wearing slippers in public means

    "Oh Hi! Ive just been released from the mental".

    And if it doesn't coming on a message board and bragging about how you spent your dole money on it while people are genuinely struggling to get by might.

    You need an entourage and a smoking jacket to carry that stuff off man.
    Pipe is a possible if you're over 60 and have a ridiculously cool moustache.

    I have sandals, slippers and scented candles.

    I also have a '97 car, -69c in the bank and a press full of canned beans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,111 ✭✭✭peanuthead

    Sandals pipes and scented candles are all cheap.
    So are slippers.
    Where are you going with this,OP?:confused:

    I just picture an old person,don't know why.
    Definitely not rich though.

    first thing I do in the morning is put on my slippers. I some times wear them driving when I drop the brother to collage in the mornings. Its not cool, Its old school:pac: Im only 20btw:o

    Wearing slippers doesn't make you look rich. It makes you look like a spastic. Ask Hugh Hefner. However being 80 years old and fcuking 25 year old sluts does make you look rich. Ask Hugh Hefner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭ascanbe


    Thanks Pinkfeather. That question made me LOL, which doesn't happen all that much on boards.
    I don't think wearing slippers makes you look rich; but when you see a person sporting a pair of slippers you can surmise that they have gone to a little bit of extra trouble with regards to their personal comfort.
    This can leave you with the impression that they still have somewhat of an interest in life and so still have something left in the bank, spiritually.
    I do not wear slippers. Perhaps i should.

    Depends on what type of slippers.

    Are we talking about the thin rubber soled purple velvet slip-ons or the full Turkish cloth/velvet mix with optional clasp near the tongue?

    socks + sandals. the only way.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,104 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    Oh God no. Look rich?
    Pah!
    Anyone I have seen in slippers are usually the sort of people I tend to avoid: loud, brash, cheap, always looking for a fight, eyeballs you for no reason, seems to have a twitch which could be due to psychotic reasons &/ or alcohol/ drugs...
    You get the picture, you're thinking scummy council estate that could merit it's own Garda station because the squad car is there more so much. I'm thinking the same.
    If you're not in a hospital & you see someone wearing slippers in public then run, run as fast as your legs will carry you :p

    using a bidet to clean your ass.
    that makes you look rich.








    in your slippers ,of course.

    Of course he does.

    Makes you look foreign. Every country in Europe apart from Ireland - oh, and Pudding Island next door - people kick off their shoes and slip into their slippers with a happy sigh as soon as they get in the door of home.
