I don’t think anyone is assuming that, I think they are genuinely concerned that you’ll end up booted out of here when it could so easily be avoided.

I’m thinking you’re reading a bit too much.

It would be quite easy to start a thread in GD or IMHO about the shoe issue and link to the closed thread.

“Here’s a continuation of the discussion on shoe wearing” would be a good title, for example.

Then you’ve enabled other folks to discuss the issue which you say they were enjoying (which, as a non-shoe wearing Canadian - hey - it’s just not done here - I thought was sort of interesting) and you’ve kept the mods - who volunteer there time for nothing more than a lousy mug, in case you were wondering - happy.

Just a thought.

Funny you should say that; anal expulsive[sup][/sup] did come to mind.
[sup][/sup]It’s a Freudian term.

Thanks for that, Mangetout. I don’t think there’s anything to worry about.

**Never a problem. I come to places like this for my own amusement and edification. I try to find both, without dropping my principles at the door and without insulting other people. I usually succeed.
You enjoy, too, and have a nice evening, as well. **

I will, as soon as I can figure out why this speaker’s not working.

Well, given that my chosen expression was a specific reply to this: " We are all guests here at the SDMB. Polite guests defer to their host’s wishes. We’ve had tons of impolite guests who tended to stroll in, ignore the rules, and leave a turd on the carpet to demonstrate that they’re not a “follow the rules” type of person. ", what can I say, really?

It also tends to be a *no longer a poster of the SDMB thing.

Is this along the same theme as “It’s a Freudian term?”

I don’t have much to add the discussion. I must say however, that I found the shoe discussion fascinating. I can’t remember when such a seemingly mundane subject was discussed with such passion. So no matter what the outcome of this pit hootenanny might be I hope there will be further shoe/anti-shoe threads.

[jennalynn]

I’m with you, fruitbat. Dying to get back into the sole of things.

(Yeah, I said it… whatever… jeez.)

On even numbered days, I wear a shoe on my left foot but none on my right. On odd numbered days, vice-a-versa. Feel free to discuss.

Incidentally, when walking on my hands I wear modified Nike track shoes only. Many have begged me to switch to New Balance, but I am firm! Firm I tell you… except for my haunches, when are getting a bit slack from all this hand walking…

[dantheman]

Shoo, shoo, you shoe people!

Color me confused, but why does everybodykeep deferring to jennalynn’s newness when she registered (lemme see: 2001 to 2002 is one, 2002 to 2003 is…) two years ago? Granted, half of her posts are in this one thread and I’m kinda turned on by her bad girl, “I play by my own rules” personna , but she’s hardly new.

My uncle likes to tell the story about when he was in the army (stateside only), they were supposed to have two pairs of shoes and rotate them every other day. They were supposed to be laced differently so someone could tell that they were rotating their shoes. My uncle for some reason only had one pair, and he relaced them every night.

Believe me, I know how fascinating this sounds. :rolleyes: I’ve only heard the story about 9 million times.
