the absurdity

"... how inappropriate be your footwear!" said he, as he observed the shiny tips of an expensive boot.

"Did u bring them along as a serious pair of footwear ...?...u do know we are in the bush and quite far from any place that may know to appreciate that pair?

A pair of flats would have been the best choice and maybe...care for my walking stick?...will help u contemplate the uneven sandy road ahead."

There it was, the absurdity of packing a pair of shoes that even city living demanded a certain skill to walk in for, the uneven sidewalks knew to chafe the heel and make them unwearable with one single wobble!
