    no more, no less, @42_words

    my wife yelling at me about the shoes all over the floor by the back door and then her suddenly stopping mid-WORD as she realizes that all the shoes are hers might be the single greatest moment in my life thus far

    My wife would have finished the phrase and I would give her the “you don’t really expect me to do that” look

    Men have one pair of shoes (and underwear) they wear until they turn to dust (at least most of us). That should have been a clue right there they couldn’t be your shoes. But I’m a bachelor, so I haven’t any idea what my floor actually looks like (it’s covered in other kinds of soiled clothing most of the time…)

          I think perhaps he meant that, as part of the collection, there is a pair of each that you just can’t part with. I have a pair of shoes that probably could go (in fact, I have a much cleaner, less used pair of the same shoe), but it’s good to have them for rainy days, going to a concert, etc.

          The underwear, as I’ve grown, if it’s got holes and stringies, it’s going. Maybe when I was younger.

      I think the single pair of underwear contributes to the bachelor status, or at the very least they probably share a root cause

        I’m gonna be honest, I would prefer no underwear over the same pair 24/7. Unless homie is washing this shit every day, that gets gross fast.
