Can anyone recommend a set of flip flops that are durable and last a long time? I had another cheap pair break the other day, and I'm looking for something more durable.

I can't bring myself to wear them. I'm usually function over form, but I just can't.

understandable but once you wear a celery stalk like a necklace all day. nothing phases ya.

You both have valid points. This kind of civility and open-mindedness is fantastic, but it's not going to make a croc less ugly. A croc is all the bad shoes ever made, rolled into one and dipped into the powdered sugar of despair.

Can't argue that they aren't ugly but im the kind of guy that is utility and function are all that matter. Much to my wifes chagrin. I have a black pair I call my bussiness crocs for the office.

Like on a chain or wrapped around your neck? Does it ward off vampires like garlic or were you trying to sneak a snack into a movie?

Wasn't it a piece of broccoli??

To tell the truth. Im not sure. I remember it as celery stalk but I mean they are both green vegetables I was not wild about eating as a kid. It could have totally been broccoli.
