Ask Lorelei

Dearest Lorelei:
What kind of shoes should I wear to a butt-kicking contest? Do I need a combination of sturdiness and lightness? Or should I concentrate more on style and fashion?
Confused in New Hibernia

Dear Confused in Hiberia ha ha ha,

Always style and fashion!!! I cannot stress this enough. Let me explain.

It's like when your Momma said you never wanna be caught dead or in an accident in dirty underwear. Well just on the off chance that you might get your butt kicked in the contest, you wanna go out in STYLE. Either way, win or lose the contest, you come out the winner in my book! (Not that you would get your butt kicked, but one must always be prepared for the unexpected.)

Where is our shoe corporation? We dont see one implemented yet.

Lorelei: Rofl, Yeah, my Ma said that too. Did yours say "If everybody jumped off a cliff, would you?"

Lol, like any paramedic, nurse, doctor or undertaker is going to worry about your Y fronts.

My mum told me if I pulled funny faces the wind would change and I would be stuck like that!

Funny thing...she was right.

Dear Lorelei.

Are sandals over socks acceptable in any circumstance?

Your greatest fan, CC.

Dearest Anthony,

I have had that exact same question for all my years in Simcountry. I preach on shoes, I post on shoes, I've asked for shoes....NADA! I'm posting subliminal messages to the GMs daily to make them eat, drink and sleep shoes and they still not getting it. OUR SIM PEEPS NEED SHOES!!!! Oh we gots clothing, cars, jewelry. We have soybeans, for Gawd's sake. Yet..... we have no shoes. They could serve as a duo purpose in this game - used as a means to protect our feet and to be used by our militaries as weapons.

So, I beseech the GMs to please hear our need!

Thank you, Anthony, for echoing my sentiments, exactly.

Dearest Maclean,

You ask, "Lorelei: Rofl, Yeah, my Ma said that too. Did yours say "If everybody jumped off a cliff, would you?"

Yes, she said that all the time. My answer was Yes, if I saw someone wearing a pair of shoes that I wanted. I would jump right after them.

Dearest Crafty,

I had to take some time to respond to your inquiry, as the thought was so disturbing, I was traumatized. I even had a restless night last night. I will say this after much thought....a big HELL NO to wearing sandals with socks on!

OMG! The ONLY pardon I give you for even doing this and I'm sure you do since you asked, is that you don't actually put your socks over your sandals. You being a Brit I would have expected even this, seeing as y'all do everything backwards and weird over there.

I'm watching you, buddy boy. You already #3 on my list!

Oh, well. You never know, they might put one in the next new update or any time soon. Then we all can jump on them. It might just as well fix our depression problems after all. It'll be cool. Just for laughs.

Dear Lorelei.

You miss understand me dear. I do not wear sandals at all. But the odd lobster can be seen on Uks beaches commiting such fashion suicide.

CC, sworn member of the fashion police.

Dear Crafty,

It is quite apparent now that I need to revisit your great country and make some MUCH NEEDED changes! I've seen such gawdawfulness over here, too. That was probably a direct result of British influence (SCOWLS).

I am relieved to know that you do not commit such horrors. But......

You still on da list. You said I had a big butt and honkers for feet. And you are a SPURS fan. You in trouble - ALWAYS. :-P

Dear Anthony,

Yes, I am lobbying for this change to the game at once. But I am leery, I ask for simple shoe corps......this could grow into much much more. Look what happened to changes in war!!! Well, that is just the chance that we shoe lovers have to take. Thank you for your shoe contribution, Anthony. We must band together for CHANGE!

yeah, looks like CHANGE is all you spent on your shoes too Lorelei...

You never know Lorlei, with the power i have and i have the feeling they're going to put in the shoe corporation, although, don't rely on me though. Just a thought and feeling it will happen.

HAVING HEART PALPITATIONS OVER HERE!!!!!!!!!

Did Crafty just insult my shoes?????

Dem's fighting words!!!

Do those vampire fangs grow out while in blood lust?

Indeed they do. ha ha ha

i think ill stick to wearing boots... I have

Running boots(Black 511s)

church boots(Bulky Georgia Boots too heavy to wear except on special occassions)

Spare/Work Boots(Old Red Head Ranchers)

round-da-howse-boots/everday boots (New(er) Red Head Ranchers)


The EPITEMY of South Georgia feet fashion. and yes round the house boots hense even if im sick to the point of death in my pajamas... i'm wearing boots.xD

Dearest Luke,

You are to boots as I am to shoes in general. Good Luke. You make Lorelei proud! Good thing you decided to not go the sock/sandal route. I'd have had to put you on my list.

ive actually used the trash talk line:

Have you ever seen me without boots on?
No.
Well your bout to when i have to take it off bc its stuck up your @**.

xD

Sandals: without socks.
Shoes: short socks.
Boots: long socks.

In that order.

Boots short socks... actually depend on the boot... Red Head Ranchers are Suede and have a inner lining the is actually softer then socks so when i wear tem i wear short shocks... cooler(Temp wise)

Dear Autey (or should I call you 'The') and Luke,

Very good.........very good indeed. The Lorelei Way.

Well, "Sir" would suffice, but lets keep it informal, shall we? :D

I only wear boots when its snowing. So its always about keeping warm. :P
