Foreigners footwear

hallelujah

Has anyone notice that you can tell a foreigner by looking at their footwear? I know they have different cultures / styles to us but it is a good way of telling, I find. I dont like their taste in footwear.

"Their" as in all foreigners. This is a piss-take, right?

Yes all foreigners. I dont like their taste in shoes. Unsurprisingly, instead of thinking about what I have posted, posters have thought 'Oh he/she is generalising and saying something negative about foreigners, therefore he/she is a racist'.

Just to make it clear, the racist comment was in jest.

Although I can't imagine how much thinking anyone can do about what you have posted. You don't like the footwear of foreigners? I really don't know how anyone is expected to waste their thought process on that.

There's a joke in there but I don't get it. Explain it to me, hallelujah. Please! Would you include British people, Americans, Australians and New Zealanders in the category "foreign". By the way, I'm not querying whether the post is a pisstake because I think it's racist. I'm querying whether it's a pisstake because I think it's simply very stupid. Also, you are generalising.
Final edit, I swear: Think I hear the sound of a padlock.

I'll call New Zealanders foreigners, wouldn't you? I can't shtand those jandals they wear over there, they are hideous. As for Aussies, last weekend I saw an aussie wearing Birkenstock Arizonas at the cinema and the following night he was wearing campers with shorts and ankle socks. :eek: But he was a fag so maybe that explains it

Well, I'll leave this open for the moment providing people stick to discussing differing footwear fashions around the world. Keep the discussion on racism etc for the Humanities board.

From footwear to racism to homophobia. I can definitely hear the sound of a padlock!

Right... this thread is going nowhere. Locked.
