While bored to death I discovered these. Who doesn’t need these? I know I want them. Here’s my plan: gonna order loads of them. Overprice them. Talk a couple teens in to wearing them. Maybe bribery would help. They go viral. I’m the only person who has them. Yep. Imma be rich. Y’all want some? They are cool as heck. They can’t last long. Ah, yes. Repeat buyers! Me? Relaxing on a beach in the Mediterranean. Wish you were here!! ---

It looks like you tried to directly upload the picture to here, and the Dope is set up so that you can’t post pictures directly into a thread. Upload the picture to a site like Imgur, then post the link here. ---

I’m not sure if the OP is being ironic or serious. Just in case she’s serious, I have to warn you that’s not a good approach to entrepeneurialism. Don’t go into it with a “get rich quick” attitude. Also, sales are much, MUCH harder than you think. I have experience with this. Things that you think should sell like hotcakes often don’t. Things that people even tell you they want to buy if only you carried it, you get some in stock and those same people ghost you so you’re stuck with dead inventory. Follow me for more tips! 🙂 LOL! ---

> [@kayaker](#): > > Have you seen one in person? They could be as thin as a condom. Ha, they used to be called ‘rubbers’ back in the olden days, when you’d put them over your wingtip shoes before heading out to work on a rainy, muddy day. ---

I can only guess that had the OP seriously wanted to sell those… ehhh… things, she would have chosen the right [place](https://boards.straightdope.com/c/marketplace/23). Where it says: > Assuming (a) it’s legal and (b) you’re a subscriber, here’s the place to do it. And frankly: the look as if they ought to be forbidden, so (a) looks doubtful. WTF are those things for? Sweaty feet? 😲 ---

Hey Beck, I am afraid you may not be able to implement you get rich quick scheme now. See you posted it on Discourse so now you will have thousands of competitors. However, if it does work out and you get rich, there are thousands of us who would not mind meeting you on the beach. If you just pay for it 🙂 ---

You’re tips are mighty helpful. I’m not serious. Too much work involved and I like being a lazy oaf. And…the 2 inventions I thought up are udder failures. My track record ain’t good. Son-of-a-wrek likes to say my trivial thoughts are cluttering up my brain, leaving no room for serious thoughts. That’s why I’ll never amount to much. 😁.
