I'm kinda freaking out lately because I realized that my favorite pair of earth shoes aren't findable anywhere. I've had them for years and years and I love them a lot, but they're getting old and tattered and I'd really like to replace them with the exact same shoe. If someone could help me find them I'd be super grateful and I'd return a favor (I dunno, if you want me to draw you a picture or help you with your homework or something, I dun care). I just need to find a place online or around Pinellas Park, FL where I can buy these shoes. Look like this (yeeeaaarrrs old picture- wasn't kidding when I said I've had them a long time): [img]http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/168077_126256037446565_126238304115005_185777_8092559_n.jpg[/img] They're earth shoes and they're a size 8. They're not on the earth shoes website or anywhere I see. Please please please pleaaaassseeee help me because I REALLY love these shoes and I would be really really appreciative and owe you forever. Thank you so much. c: <3
Dude you wear women on your feet?
I think I saw them at the corner of 5th and 32nd but I'm not sure
I never expected you to be THAT sexy i mean, come on, im bi, leaning towards guys first, and you are sexy.
... I can't tell if that's sarcasm Meow... because I'm, like, little in that picture...
[QUOTE=ConvolutedLogic;28394329]... I can't tell if that's sarcasm Meow... because I'm, like, little in that picture...[/QUOTE] no im serious. You are still really sexy.
Oh! Uhm. Thank you? That's a bit concerning since that was 2007... making me... 11 and 1/2. x) Here, if you think this is sexy, this makes you less creepy because this is me now: [img]http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/185667_129569943781841_126238304115005_206499_7860411_n.jpg[/img] [img]http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/189297_129569787115190_126238304115005_206494_3032539_n.jpg[/img]
Attention whore with fried hair? They are called sandals darling just get a pair.
Nahh, just thought I'd make him feel less creepy. It's a bit more socially acceptable to complement a 15 year old than an 11 year old. And they are hardly just sandals. Those are the neatest, awesomest sandals on the planet.
You might want to ask the ladies chat thread. I don't think most guys will own a pair of these shoes. Unless some FPers steal their sister's shoes
Problem is though, I really haven't met anyone else, men or women, with my shoes. So I'm kinda just looking for anyone who is good at searching. I mean I even had a dream about these damn shoes, c'mon.
They're just sandals. Do they have some sentimental value or something?
Honestly, yeah, they really do. I mean I've had them since I was a kid. They've been with me through a lot. But beyond that, just the particular way the shoe looks is just so unique and fun to me.
Pic in OP was hotter.
But wait, if it has sentimental value, how is that value carried over different shoes that look the same? Aesthetics is fine, but I have to ask why would you post your entire picture and not just the shoes. That coupled wit hthe other two pictures makes me wonder if you aren't indeed an attention whore. Nonetheless, no idea. Why not get them to a traditional shoemaker so that he can tr yand replicate them for you?
Because I dunno, if they looked the same, felt the same, they'd be the same in my brain. For one, because I'm too lazy to just take the shoes. Second, I kinda wanted to make it less creepy than some guy thinking my 11 year old self was hot. Thirdly I'm taking a bunch of new pictures lately since I'm auditioning for modeling agencies soon and I like showing them off. :D It's more about the pictures than of myself. If that makes me an attention whore, oh well. Hmm, that's a good idea, but I have no clue how to go about doing that. Would it cost more?

But they aren't the same, you can't just run with what your brain thinks of, even knowing it's wrong, can you? And it doesn't make it less creepy, he's still lusting after an image of a 12-year-old, which doesn't necessarily have to be bad, depending on what age we percieve the girl's/boy's body's age to be. If your body is that of a 20-year-old (Or what your brain is programmed to think is that of a 20-year-old), the fact that it's controlled by the mind of a 12-year-old doesn't change hr physical appearence. Doing something to the girl, however, is reprehensible, since you're not als ofucking a 16-year-old body, you're also fucking a 12-year-old mind. Also, I'd advise you to look into a reliable source for those shoes, so you don't get stuck in the same position again.
God damnit I didn't know she was about 12 in that image She looks older in that image, about 15ish God damn I didn't mean to start a shit storm, fuck
Wow, MountainWatcher, what'd I do to you?
You have pretty feet
Oh why thank you. C:
Have you considered visiting a cobbler? Wikipedia says that [quote]A different firm with the same name is now in existence, and has recently introduced shoes with negative heels in a variety of styles ranging from sandals to running shoes.[/quote] Don't know when this occurred, perhaps the shoes you have are from this new company and not the old? Do they have this "negative heel technology"? The pictures don't appear to show so.
Yeah, wow, you're awesome for probably being one of the few that actually tried. <3 I wrote to an Earth Shoes representative last night. Turns out that a branch of earth shoes switched to earth spirit. Once I searched under "Earth Spirit Comfort First" shoes I found the time, and turns out they're the "Earth Spirit Comfort First GelRon 2000." Made in 2000! I love 'em. c: Yeah... no, I already found a way to buy them! :D They still have all the beads, unlike mine.
Nothing agaisnt you. If anything, I sympathise with you due to all the shitstorms people used to brew agaisnt you in the LA.

Good thing I'm not trying to have pubescent boys masturbate to me on the interwebz. :3:
This is Facepunch, what did you expect ?
Yeah, posting bikini pics on Facepunch might not be a good idea, hate to say it Then again you could probably post in a fucking Burqa like they wear in Saudi Arabia and these kids would break out the tissues
Eh, I'm in Florida. I'm used to seeing chicks in bikinis and guys in trunks. It's just like a common thing, not something provocative.
Yeah, but it's not really your intention that counts here, but the reception. Even if you wanted merely to display an object of Petrarichian love and beauty, completely platonic, or even just a study on human aesthetics, where the viewer is to detach himself from his feelings towards what is shown, there are still people popping boners because of those. Blame just shifts a lot from your position.
