The problem is not the shoes

So. In the latest attempt to make sure that no one ever has to be responsible for themselves ever, cops in the UK are now going to give drunk women flip flops to walk home in.

Look, if you're going out drinking in kick ass heels, you are making a conscious decision to have your feet hurt like hell by the end of the night. You also know that there's a very good chance you'll have to walk home barefoot if you don't want to fall over.  I generally made sure to carry a pair of flats with me, tucked down in the bottom of the bag, so that when the time came, I could change into something more appropriate.  If a girl (because these sure as hell aren't women) can't handle her heels and her liquor, she should give up both.

1 Drunk chicks in heels are funny. The Nanny-state giving out flip-flops is stupid.

One really bad ankle and one so-so ankle prevents me from making this bad decision in the first place. Which sorta pisses me off because neither ankle was caused by awesome-bad shoes, but now I can't wear awesome-bad shoes to go with any of my nice shit.

So I wear super-awesome purses and coats (in the winter, of course)...

3 The other option is for the drunk girls to get in my car. I'll get them home. Or at least give them a ride...

If I wasn't already in love with peel, and trying to court her in a gentilmanly fashion, I would so hit on alexthechick, though if alex and peel are up for it, I guess there's enough of me to go around.

IT'S JUST THE NICE THING TO DO!

5 WP - I am touched by your nobility, truly, you are a selfless man among men.  Brad, you too.  It brings a tear to my eye. 

And yeah, I can't actually wear any of the heels I lust after due to a combination of ankle problems from cheering and an unfortunate increase in the weight/ankle ratio.  I can still lust after them though.

6 an unfortunate increase in the weight/ankle ratio.

We really have to do more to stem the tragic disappearance of so many ankles.

7 I thought the problem with wymyns drinking was rounded heels?
