I used to have to wash out my underwear sometimes.

Everyone has their own domestic division of labor, and whatever works for you. Don’t think my father was permitted anywhere near the washer, dryer, or ironing board.

Clogs were big for girls in the 70s. They looked better than anything I can see on a web search for clogs now, and most of them were, so far as I remember, one particular shade of blue. A web search for “clogs 1970s” also brings up Dr. Scholl’s exercise sandals that were made of wood like clogs and were supposed to exercise feet and legs. I don’t know if that was true, but it was effective advertising.

Wasn’t there a purported problem with crocs getting caught in escalators at one time?
Also, algo has the distinction of being the inspiration behind the Algore abbreviation. So something good came out of it.

I dropped one in the bathtub. I’m pretty sure it clogged my drain.

}}} They are my preferred shoe in my wood shop. Strong support yet flexible and comfortable

… And Butt-f***ing ugly as hell. 😛

}}} They should be confiscated and burned.

Nahhh. You should never burn plastics. All kinds of toxins. 😛

}}} I don’t like that “algo” shortening for “algorithm” either, but for an additional reason. “Algo” means “something” in Spanish.

So, “Algo, algo, algo… merde“, then? 😛

Those who endeavor to besmirch and denigrate crocs have clearly never worn crocs. Anyone that has to be on their feet for long periods of time would love them. They are my preferred shoe in my wood shop. Strong support yet flexible and comfortable.

Clogs are horrible. Clogging (a strange type of folk dance) is worse.

JC:

I clogged a bit in my folk dancing days. It’s kind of Appalachian tap dancing. I’d like to have gotten to know it better.

Here’s a 1965 video of bluegrass clogging that I’ve watched a number of times. It’s quite popular. It makes my heart soar and hurt at the same time.
