Death by vanity

It seems that the soapbox I am on as of recently is a preachy, moralistic, "I'm better than you because I don't eat read meat" kind of spell. This is not intentional. For the record, I am a total walking contradiction and a full-blown hypocrite. I wear leather. With that off my chest (it was a burden, I tell you) I wanted to say that I hate these stupid boots that girls are wearing everywhere. On every streetcorner, on every bus, in every mall you will find such hideous displays of vulgarity. I bet you the girl next door has a pair. The reason I am so outraged is perhaps the fact that these monstrosites cost roughly $300 (of course there are knock-offs which are even worse). I was at the mall a couple of days ago, hoping to run in, find an awesome pair of boots and leave as quickly as possible with minimum damage done to my wallet. All I could find after roaming for about 2 hours were these ugly, stupid, furry, Sasquatch-y boots.


Not only are they disgusting to me because it looks like you harveted your pet bunny to make them, but they look ridiculous on (unless you're going for the Yeti look). I could not find a single pair of decent boots anywhere. And what is even more disturbing is how can anybody possibly find such boots cool? Perhaps it's the sheep mentality which pushes us to any trend, regardless of how ridiculous. I thought I saw the worst of it last year with the Uggs epidemic. Then again, how can you ever account for spandex? Valid question I'll say. But anyway, back to my mall story. I left mad because I wasted 2 hours, accomplished nothing and realized that we girls are mindless robots. Now I have wasted another fifteen minutes of my time writing about it. So I hope that none of my friends have bought such boots. You cease to be my friend as of now. I'm off to watch Top Model.
