Today, I saw a news story about how wearing flip-flops is dangerous. I scoffed at the ridiculous study and went about my business. Three hours later I accidentally ripped off my toenail. While wearing flip-flops. FML

The irony in this FML and the description makes me want to clip my own toenails before this happens to me.

I don't think "Floridians" are the only ones who wear flip flops.

The stories that come up these days on the news.

If you lived in the Wasteland toenails would be the least of your worries.....

I know a lot of workplaces ban open-toed shoes under the flimsy pretext of safety. The real reason is that many people have ugly-ass feet with hairy toes and fungus-infested nails that no one wants to see or smell.

And the people with the nastiest feet are the ones that feel the need to show them off.

I don't wear flip flops because I can't be bothered to change my shoes when I get ready to drive. I can't drive in flip flops. Or sandals. But I'm pretty ******* good at it in heels. My feet aren't bad looking, and when my parents take me somewhere, I tend to go with the weather. The plastic on the flip flop can easily burn your foot.

I've done this before! I feel your pain OP.

Sometimes my toenails come off when I'm wearing thongs, too.

I said " what the ****?!" when I saw that comment. Then I realized in some places, flip flops are called "things" just like in the old days :D well old to me anyways

Ha, when I'm wearing thongs, sometimes my balls pop out.

Oh shit * thongs! Damn you auto-correct!

Haha yup in Australia thongs are what mericans and britts call flip flops.

If flip flops are thongs, then what are thongs? O.o

So then what do you Australians call what we call thongs?

G-strings? On "never mind the buzzcocks" they had this conversation :) not sure if it was right tho

We Australians call thongs thongs. Silly American... Yes G-Strings is correct.
