inkman Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) Not sure how but the shoes on my feet are not mine. It started Saturday, I wore my "work" shoes out to dinner and just thought my socks were thick or my gout was flaring up but upon further inspection, these aren't my shoes. They are severely worn, mine were just purchased, and they are a size too small. My wife thinks I'm crazy but I think one of two people are wearing MY shoes. Her father or a friend of ours. I think I'm just going to call it a day and get another pair on my lunch. They weren't very expensive or anything. Edited November 3, 2014 by inkman Quote

sabills Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 Would you say you've walked a mile yet? Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) Have you talked to the police yet? I bet the person that has your shoes is committing a crime in them and framing you Edited November 3, 2014 by bob_sauve28 Quote
Robviously Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 Look, what's done is done. The shoes are gone and they aren't coming back. Does it really matter who has them now? You deserve a new pair anyway. Plus, I'm going to be a lot more productive now that I finally have some comfortable footwear. Everyone wins. Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 Would you say you've walked a mile yet? That's funny shite...... On a side note, when i first saw the thread title, I thought it was going to be a tough decision whether to concentrate on this, or the girl in the day of the dead costume..... Quote
inkman Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) Would you say you've walked a mile yet? It feels like 10 miles. They are a size too small. I'll be leaving for my lunch soon to get replacements. How on Earth does this happen? Even if I did know who, I'll save them the embarrassment and just get the new ones. If you did the same thing (On accident) would you cop to it. It really sucks because I just got those broken in and they were really comfy. Now I have 2 more weeks of the shoes breaking in my feet again. Argh! Edited November 3, 2014 by inkman Quote
shrader Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 It's better than finding out you're wearing someone else's pants. I won't get into the story. Quote
nfreeman Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 Would someone who isn't a vagrant really take someone else's shoes intentionally? i.e. he is leaving a party, spots a better pair of shoes than the ones he came with, sees it as an opportunity to trade up, and just takes the shoes? Does that really happen? Quote

I can't imagine wearing shoes a size larger is particularly comfortable. I'd want my shoes back! Quote

Stoner Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 I'd cop to it. I can't imagine wearing shoes a size larger is particularly comfortable. I'd want my shoes back! Right. See, if his shoes are too small on ink, then it would follow that ink's shoes are too big on him. I'm all over this. Quote
inkman Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Posted November 3, 2014 Wearing the replacements now. Spent an extra $10 as that is all that had in the style I wanted. Worth it as they aren't rubbing my heal raw. Quote

Was out playing pitch at a friend's house after work and a friend took one of my shoes when he left. So he was wearing 2 different shoes. I called him out on being a drunken moron immediately. Quote
LastPommerFan Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 What if Ink is the one who stole the shoes? Quote

Does that really happen? I've done this to a friend of mine who had the same sandals as me, only 3 years newer. Those sandals had great accuracy and range for kicking at people. I wish I still had the newer pair, mine broke. As far as people doing that to keep the shoes... uhhh maybe if they're a total scrap? (like Robviously) Quote
darksabre Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 It's better than finding out you're wearing someone else's pants. I won't get into the story. Or that the car you're driving isn't yours. That's a funny story about worn out keys and two identical green Hondas. Quote
pastajoe Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 Have you talked to the police yet? I bet the person that has your shoes is committing a crime in them and framing you I hope they're not size-12 Bruno Magli shoes. Quote
sabills Posted November 3, 2014 Report Posted November 3, 2014 Or that the car you're driving isn't yours. That's a funny story about worn out keys and two identical green Hondas. Yup, my cousin did this once. He borrowed a freinds car, drove 30 or so miles, came back and couldn't park in the same spot (street parking) so he parked a block or so down. Friend asked him later why he never borrowed the car, as it hadn't moved. Turned out it was someone elses practically identical car. What I would pay to hear the conversation that person had with themselves/whoever they were with. "I swear to god, it was right here. How the hell..." Quote
inkman Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Posted November 8, 2014 So it looks like the culprit has been located. My big hearted wife used to work in group homes with developmentally disabled folks. She's maintained contact with some of them throughout the years as many times they don't have anyone there for them. One of her guys was over at our house last weekend and must have mistakenly put my shoes on instead of his. So for the crude and rude and a re##### has been wearing my shoes for the last week. Quote
