Why Can't I Get Some Massive Shoes??

I am sure you can imagine my excitement when I saw this sign in a shop window? Who wouldn't be excited? So in I go...

"I would like a pair of massive shoes please." A simple request I thought. "What size are you?" the shop assistant asks. Of course I didn't think it mattered! They are massive shoes. What size I am isn't relevant is it? I just wanted some massive shoes! Imagine people at TESCO wondering where the painted footprints for the cash machine were, while I smugly stood there like Krusty the clown obscuring their view.

Apparently I had got it wrong. The sign meant there was a massive sale of shoes occurring. How was I to know? I feel rather cheated. Maybe I should get trading standards involved. You can't place such dreams of grandeur in a mans head by advertising massive shoes for sale and then smash them to pieces.

I left rather deflated, my ordinary, average size feet shuffling out of the shop. I guess I can still dream...

    Bearing in mind what they say about the size of a mans feet I'm inclined to think that there might've been an ulterior motive behind your wanting massive shoes.

  2. So disappointing for you. I picture you standing in your ginormous shoes blocking the view of the little painted footprints. You look so happy in my imagination.

  3. But would massive shoes have fit in the closet or under the bed? You're probably better off without them.

  7. Ah yes, I too love to take signs, literally. Okay, I don't mean literally taking the sign and removing it from the shop. Heck, you know what I mean :)

  11. If specific areas of your home feel cold or drafty, then chances are they are not properly sealed or insulated. These deficiencies can greatly increase the cost of heating or cooling your home and are often an easy fix. Seal any holes you identify and get a price estimate for adding insulation to thin walls.kirtan

  12. You'll be more confident about your smile if you are more confident about your breath. Test your breath by licking the (clean) palm of your hand. If you smell an odor, you should try to freshen it with a breath mint or mouthwash. Make sure you use alcohol-free mouthwash, since mouthwash with alcohol in it can leave your mouth dry.
