Always American

You know, I frequently come on here and blast white Americans for stealing black Americans style such as giving a pound (fist-to-fist acknowledgement), the famous but fading "you go girl!", and the hand shake with the finger snap.
Well, as proof of American's willingness and desire to conform with each other, Glueman saw a brother of Hershey's chocolate skin, shoulder-length dreds and a really nice suit. All completed with a pair of matching flip flops.

A suit.

And a pair

of fucken

flip flops.

Those of you who know me know I can't STAND to see anyone in flips who aint on the beach. I mean, we are on the East Coast in the spring. The hottest day so far has been 80 degrees. How the hell can you rock some flip flops? And brothers should just know better. I dont remember my grandfather or father EVER wearing them so its not like its a fashion thats resurfaced. Sandals, yes. All day long. Flip flops. Please. Men need to keep those for the beach or the locker room as shower shoes.

American Conformity. Hoorah.....

A person should never rock flip-flops in a suit.

That's just wrong!

A crime against nature...

Yes, I will go on record with that.

I understand that flip-flops are comfortable. I may give you a pass for wearing flip-flops when walking from your job to the train or something...

Even then...

Okay, I will be nice and give a pass for flip flop wearing, for the LADIES ONLY (girls are the ones who have to wear uncomfortable shoes) during the commute to or from home. But, once you step foot in the office, or meeting with clients, etc. there should be no flip-flop wearing with a suit.

None!

That is just wrong!

I'm againt' it, I say! ;)

Flip flops have replaced people wearing sneakers going to and from work.

It should be a crime.
