The Shoe Saga: Episode II: Attack of the Boots

[Kristev]

I was thinking something quite similar, TheMike.

[Canarr]

Okay, sorry, but that is just beyond funny...

[Legal Eagle]

From my experience with school headmasters and faculty. They don't cave in to this kind of idiocy, so i would love an update as to how they responded after receiving the note.

[Soulstealer]

If the daughter is anything to judge by, I think we know what the mother means in the first story when she says she's a "nice" person.

She gives discounts to servicemen?

[eltf177]

This is worse than the pub! Something you have or do seems to attract the crazies!

Please keep us updated, somehow I don't think we've heard the last of this nutcase...

[Seshat]

Only this woman would let her daughter dress like that for school, or buy her stiletto boots and call them school shoes.

[blas]

Is their last name Bucket, by any chance?

Ohhh, I mean, Booooquaeeee....

[Kheldarson]

Sounds like the mother of a friend of mine.

She'd have her daughter go to school inappropriately dressed (daughter prefers to dress goth and mom wanted her daughter to be "sexy" prep) and then argue with the principal when the school would call to have a change of clothes sent.

[MoonCat]

Wait, so stiletto boots are supposed to be her daughter's everyday shoes?? Every day??

Hope they've got insurance, and a podiatrist's number on speed dial.

There's just no fixing stupid, is there?

[MaseMan]

What a stupid bitch.

I think you handled it extremely well. You stood up to her and presented a reasonable resolution without caving into her or losing your cool.

[Jester]

Only this woman would let her daughter dress like that for school, or buy her stiletto boots and call them school shoes.

Sadly, you are wrong. This is not the only parent out there who would allow this and not see a problem with it.

There's just no fixing stupid, is there?

No. There isn't.

[wolfie]

There's just no fixing stupid, is there?

Too late for that - even if you "fixed" her, she's already reproduced (and passed on the trait) twice.

Wish I had an update on this story. I keep going into work and asking co-workers if they know anything about it, but apparently she hasn't been back. Damn! I found the whole thing hilarious.

[PepperElf]

although i don't think this is in england... the word "chav" keeps coming to my mind.


and i'm starting to think both kids are selling their things (shoes, ass, etc) for cash

[chainedbarista]

it is; customers is english, or british, if he prefers.

from the description, they are so very chav.
