He bought overpriced shoes - so he's a dumbass - and he got them from some rando instead of an actual store. I guess he never heard the term "buyer beware."
Well it only has one use and that's to be a shoe, the quality of which is perfectly available that doesn't cost 10 times as much because it's colorful or has somebody's name on it.
But it's fine I'm sure that the kids working in the sweatshops in India or China don't mind that they're only making pennies on the dollar for the product which is then subsequently enormously marked up in order to profit some rich asshole.
So yeah it's stupid because it's a shoe that costs too much.
Just because I had two opinions in the same comment doesn't mean you should get the fleet the two. If you buy something without verifying its source you are stupid. If you buy overly expensive shoes you are stupid. See they're two different things. I'm just using this case as a chance to jab at the stupidity of buying the overpriced shoes while also jabbing at the stupidity of buying something without verifying it's authenticity. It's a two-for-one.
