Sorry, No Uggs

A coffee shop in London, England has raised controversy with this sign...



We here at Infomaniac applaud their decision to ban ugly footwear and encourage them to do the same with Crocs.

Is there anything else you'd like to see banned from coffee shops?

    1. PRINNY: Obviously, The Mistress has been living under a rock. Until you mentioned it, I’d never heard of a Puppychino, apparently also known as a Puppuccino. So of course I had to Google it and this is what I found…

      On their “secret menu,” Starbucks has a Puppuccino. It’s an espresso-shot-sized paper cup full of whip cream. Some dogs are bothered by dairy, and your dog should probably not have one of these sugary treats every day, but for special occasions it’s fun.

    1. MISTRESS MADDIE: Just to be certain, I would have a contract drawn up stating that I never have to display nor touch Uggs and Crocs.

  6. #1. what is/are slag wellies? (have something to do with wellington, nz?)

    #2. there is an older woman at the local starfucks that feels it's her mission to make small talk with every customer, even when the lines out the door. she also needed to ask each person what their name is so that it could be carefully written on the cup. each visit, my name changed, but it was always arlene, betty, beulah, doris......

    1. NORMA: A slag is a slut and Wellies are Wellington boots or what we call “rubber boots” here.

      Therefore, “slag wellies” are the types of boots (Uggs) that slags wear.

      Arlene, betty, beulah, doris..... you’ll always be Norma to me.

    2. i never would dare speak the name
      norma in public, what if i was recognized?

      Delete
    3. NORMA: I don't think that's possible with those shades.

      Unless you're trailing a gaggle of Corgis behind you.

    4. JON: Seven minutes? I’m ready to go in five!

      Note that “How to look like a slag” is followed by “How to look like a chav.” Apparently, it takes longer (13 minutes) to look like a chav than a slag.

  8. I don't care what they look or smell like, as long as I don't have to hear them. Keep it down dicknuts! If you feel compelled to share the distressing details of your life, get a blog.

  9. If I was a proprietor of a catering establishment, I'd hire a door bitch to keep the undesirables out.

    Fatties, whether they have visible tattoos or not, will be greeted with open arms and treated like royalty, because they spend fucking loads.
