Heh, tommyrot -- I think NoiseDesign has a pair just like those.
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I have no idea what brothel creepers are, but I'm pretty sure that winkle pickers are super-pointy shoes.
The brothel creepers look a lot like Hec's flamey sneakers.
It looks like winkle pickers are similar to cockroach killers in this country.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Whole page of super pointy-ass winkle pickers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think I like pointy toed men's shoes more than I like pointy-toed women's shoes.
Perhaps because I don't wear them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Heh, all this pointy shoe talk makes me think of "Boromir's" death in BORED OF THE RINGS:
"... Bromosel started to sprint, but catching his feet in his sword belt, he tripped and impaled himself on his pointed shoes. "Ye doom is ycomme true," he groaned. "

Now tagless for your comfort.
If I can EVER avoid medical treatment at Ohio State University's hospital, I will. Between August (when I had an ultrasound there) and October, I got no fewer than FIVE phone calls over a $35 bill.
I dragged my feet because I knew I had a second appointment and wanted to pay both bills together (since I'm getting a reimbursement from my flexible spending account).
Now I just got my first call for my second appointment--I just got the bill last week for $46.
I wonder if this is cost effective and increases their rate of collection on bills. Because I'm inclined to wait as long as possible to pay this I'm so annoyed.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Now they can ask her who she was talking to.
And then, what she was doing near my home.
