When you hear the word ‘crocs’, what do you think of? I think of a game I used to have as a child. It was some kind of Hungry, Hungry Hippos rip-off, except that it featured hungry crocs instead of hippos.
In an attempt to rip off Hungry, Hungry Hippos as much as possible, the crocs were these cartoonish, oafish looking creatures.
Everytime I see crocs, I see those dumb, happy – and let’s not forget – hungry, crocodiles. They’re like an animated version of a clog shoe – jelly shoes for a new generation, minus the painful blisters. A cartoon shoe, possibly inhabited by an old lady, I’m not sure.
There’s just something silly about them, and plastic shoes in general.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my crocs, they’re super comfy, and who doesn’t want to wear a cartoon on your feet? However, they’re definitely they type of shoe I wear paired with a nest of hair and sweats while I’m making a run to the hardware store when my toilet is clogged.
And let me tell you, with the optional backs trap, these crocs cayman are excellent for running in the opposite direction when I run into that cute boy while looking like a mess.
