NAH! I was THAT when I didn't tell her I was a smoker until we had been dating for 3 months....she says I lied...I said she never asked....THAT is still being debated 15+ years later!
anything that covers the foot and isnt a sock is a shoe. even if there is not much to them, they are a shoe and do count. the nice thing about an ecessive amout of flip flops is that the plain ones are easier to smuggle out of the house.
You weren't wrong on the flip flops counting issue. You were wrong when you said "my wife has too many shoes!" There is no such thing as too many shoes. The end!
i personally think they count. but since Angie says they don't count- then THEY DON'T COUNT and that's all you need to know. lol.
the only time they don't count is if you're fighting w/ your husband because he says you have too many or you have agreed to limit the amount of shoes you have.
that said- i have 3 pairs of shoes. total. and husband still fights with me. he must have a death wish.

Then what in the heck are those funny looking croc things?

And yet when I tell her there is no such thing as too many beers she doesn't appear amused....

I flat refuse to fight with her....I hate losing! She will never limit her shoes but you can bet my closet space will get more limited the more shoes she buys...seriously she has 3/4 of the walk in closet...I have 1/4....she also has one of the guest bedroom closets for coats...freakin coats/wedding/girls prom-homecoming gowns...HELLL-OOO...we live in Southern California!

In a word, hideous. Sorry but I hate those things.
And I'm with you. Flip-flops do count as shoes. You can wear them into a store that has the "no shirt, no shoes, no service" signs, so they pass as shoes.
My mother-in-law to be is always ragging on me about how many shoes I own. It really pees me off. As a person who has always been ashamed of her body, shoes are the only things I could really buy that fit me and didn't make me look fat. I love shoes. Now I feel more confident in my body I can also buy clothes that look the way I want on me, but I'll always love shoes, and I'll always be super-defensive about anyone who rags on someone who they feel has too many shoes.
In other words: flip-flops do not count, unless you're trying to boost your shoe collection numbers to make them sound more impressive.
And I second the comment about computer games versus shoes. Even though I also play computer games
OH, Gary, Gary, Gary. How many times do I have to explain this to you?
You are old and you are ugly!!! You are lucky Angie didn't have you arrested or shot after you chloroformed her and drug her to the wedding. So, when it comes to Ang, just STFU!!!
Quit counting her shoes. Put in Billy Joel's, "Always a Woman to Me". Then, count your blessings instead. After all, you really don't want to have to explain to the guys on the work site how your little woman beat the living **** out of you with a flip flop.

You are old and you are ugly!!! Aren't we identical twins? You are lucky Angie didn't have you arrested or shot after you chloroformed her and drug her to the wedding.

Ya know....I told her that...STFU...a few weeks ago after a day of 12 beers...WRONG thing to say..let me tell ya....ouch!!!

Actually my mom used to wail on our little butts with her flip-flops....back when we called them thongs....she could get it off her foot and onto our butts faster than greased lighting! I still have scars!
I count them! Flip Flops included I have 30 pairs of shoes. I <3 shoes.
Right now I only have 5 pairs of Flip Flops because I had to dispose of some of the ones I had last year as they got beat up, but I like to keep them in many different colors. They can go with anything and they're cheap!

If the flip flops "smack" on the feet they are evil and should be destroyed. You should try them all on (maybe not all at once) and walk around the house to test them. If they make the annoying smacking noise then burn them in the backyard. Then you can remove them from the shoe count. Problem solved.
she has been paying $2 for years...aaarrrghghhhh
