On skate shoes and possible shenanigans
Another [info]customers_suck wank:

[info]tijay makes a lengthy post about a kid coming into the store wearing heelies. Kid, while skating, apparently trips over the steps on a nearby escalator and bangs his head.

Result? 911, kid half-dead, in coma (prolly and hopefully died on the way to the hospital, he bleed all over the escalator making 4 people clean up after him. Bitch. His mom is crying and yelling at everyone, escalator gets stopped. People complaint about elevators that are slow and that we need to fix our escalators.

Then we have team meeting, and at least three people confess that they told him and his mom to stop skating. Making our liability 0. At least now, we have banned these goddamn shoes.

That incident just made my day. I will remember it on the bright side for the rest of my life.


Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand they're off. 324 comments and counting.

Edit: The wank, it hits stupid_free--many thanks to [info]hangingfire for the link.

I've been secretly coveting a pair for quite some time

My dislike of those is due half to their being obnoxious and half to the fact that I'm still mad they didn't make those when *I* was 8.

(Of course even if they had made them when I was 8 my mom would never have gotten them for me.)

Same here. There's a store at my local mall that has them. And I have tiny enough feet to fit into a child's size 4(which is actually surprisingly close to an adults 6 1/2 btw) I keep thinking it'll be more fun to skate around a college campus in heelies, then walk or worry about chaining up a bike.

I love mine. ^_^ I wear them to the movie theater, I wore them to MegaCon, and I wear them at work where the floors are practically polished.
