Our second toe is longer than the rest.
With a weird shape.
Hey!! that’s it, though
Thx.
That’s definitely one made that size, though, not a normal croc shrunken down. It has only five holes, where the full-sized ones have a lot more.
Exactly 8 holes. Yeah, I count.
Actually the shrunken, dunked deep in the ocean Croc was me day-dreamin’, how to get…some..
Wait!
This idea was planted in my melon by a ersatz genius.
It never occured to me that styrofoam or anything would shrink down in the drink. The ‘drink’…I don’t drink.
Aaaaccckkk. I’m confused 
You are Welcome. I’ve never been called “ersatz”
I just looked it up! Fuck you!
I meant it in a kindly way.
Hey, I was talking about the ersatz genius around here. You know Son-of-a-wrek? Anywhoo.
He’s always full of shit.
And FU back, Mister Fish. What you think the universe is all about you?
Just yours, Tommy.
Uh uh. The universe don’t want me to have tiny Crocs.
See. It’s against me.
I own a pair of crocs where one shoe wound up getting too hot because a space heater was blowing on them, and the shoe shrank permanently. It looked like a kid’s shoe.
I believe they were actual crocs and not knockoffs, but I can’t be sure.
Someone I know spilt food on their crocs, then put them in the dishwasher on a hot cycle and they came out tiny (but also a bit misshapen) - they’re made from some expanded foam so I imagine boiling them collapses that structure.
Something similar happens with so-called styrofoam, like takeout coffee cups used to be made of. If you heat one in an oven (use a sacrificial plate 
), it’d turn into a teeny blob of styro-goo.
Incidentally, that’s the same substance that CD jewel cases are made from (just with a bunch of added air). And one of the key ingredients in a Lviv smoothie.
Hmmm… heat seems to be the thing that would work.
But I gotta sacrifice some of my beloved Crocs to find out.
I gotta dig for some old ones. I bet there is some here.
I’m diving in..if I don’t show up by New Years, y’all call out the posse. 
Heat almost certainly won’t shrink it down into a tiny Croc. Most likely it’d just turn it into a formless blob (it’d be a smaller formless blob, but still formless). And probably also release some nasty fumes in the process.
Aaaaaccckkk.
My parade is properly rained upon.
For a while I worked with supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, in which you bathe something in a form of CO2 that is neither liquid nor gas (nor solid) but behaves somewhat like a liquid and somewhat like a gas. It operated at about 15,000 psi. I tried a dollar bill one time, and it came out roughly 2/3 normal size.
