When I was a young man one of the things that appalled me was middle-aged men in socks and sandals. These men were at the bottom rung of cool. They had fallen so far from fashionable that they would go out looking like that. See above.

And then it happened to me. First it was just a one time thing. I had to help Bob with the groceries and my socks were on and my shoes weren’t. It was too easy to slip on my flip flops and help then for me to find my tennis shoes, slip them on and tie the laces. Besides nobody would see me. It has advanced to running chores around town because I will only be out for a minute or two and it isn’t likely that anyone will see me.

Now I just don’t give a damn. See below, me today.

Yes I have succumbed to the ultimate fashion faux pas for men — socks and sandals. Pray for me.
