Fashion CAN Save Your Life
Posted by charley on July 5th, 2008Flip flops have been the staple in the fashion diet this summer, well they have been when it’s not been raining!, and I’ve appreciated the times when i can wear them.
They just look so good with a pair of leggings and a nice primark smock, and i had my eye on a lovely pair from Office before someone ruined it by saying it looked like they had anal beads stuck on them…but there’s one woman who appreciates them for more than their ability to make her look good.
Marie Drackert got more than she bargained for when wearing her flip flops whilst watching TV, granted they were cheap old kicks, but she believes they are the reason she didn’t die that night. She’d settled down in her favourite chair to watch the weather on the telly box, only for a huge bolt of lightening to crack its way through the sky and shoot down her chimney! It almost frazzled the poor woman, and burnt out her washer and dryer, television, telephone, stereo, microwave, toaster, coffee pot and a brand-new air-conditioning unit. The rubber sole of her trusty flip flops had grounded her as the electricity bolted through her body and saved her from a good frying! She thought it was a plane crashing into her house, but felt extremely lucky when told it was lightening, and survived with only half a damaged house and a frizzy perm! I would imagine she looked something like Joshua Von Grimm, but since i try to make my hair as wild as that for a night out maybe i should take tips from Ms Drackert.
You really cant make this stuff up…
