Ugg (ly).

Granted, the Ugg/Uggly joke has been made far too many times already, but really, just take a look at them. Wandering around campus, it appears sometimes as though the ubiquitous boots themselves have sprouted legs, marching their oversized Jackie-O glasses/Lululemon yoga pant-wearing owners to the latest hotspot. Heel, lemmings. Plenty of sole, but no soul.

Then, when I didn't think one could have worse taste in footwear, along came a rash (with no apparent ointment) of fur trim and fuzzy tassles. Obviously trying to get a foot up on the competition and reclaim their position atop the pile, Ugg have now come out with a crocheted version of the boot. I must be out of the loop here -- when did crocheting become cool?

And even with the warmer weather, they don't go away. Ug(g)h.
