Woah, Lira, chill out. This is what happens when you don't have a collectively unanimous agreement on an issue related to you? That's kinda weak, dude, grow a pair.
Actually, I'm quite used to people disagreeing with my views: hell, I'm an atheist in a Christian country; I'm a vegetarian in a place where most people eat meat, and I can't agree with hardcore vegetarians either because I don't do it because I love animals; I don't even write with the same hand as most people, it's not like having different ideas is a novelty to me.
However, Christians only try to argue with me sporadically, but eventually give up when I don't try to argue them out of their beliefs; meat-eaters quickly forget about my existence when they realise I don't mind what they put on their plates as long as they let me eat what I call food; and so on.
I first took this thread as a joke but, after a while, it's hard to chill out when a bunch of people who are not even invited for the wedding and are in no position to judge me so harshly come forth and keep saying I'm trying too hard to do something (I still don't know what), being disrespectful (I still don't know to whom).
Really, enough is enough. Leave me and my shoes alone, I've already all I could possibly say and I'm not going to change my mind unless a party involved presents a case against it, full stop. You guys say I'm intelligent but can't trust me on this one?!
And my tolerance threshold is really low these days... I've been bleeding due to the pressure I'm putting myself, so I'm not at my personal best here.

So, basically, when it comes to "big" issues, you maintain that alacritous emotional neutrality you're famous for, but on a somewhat small (not counting your shoe size) issue, you're letting some fairly notorious goofballs grab your rocks.
And, for what it's worth, I'm 100% for Lira being Lira and wearing shoes to a friend's wedding. Okay, you're under duress, but I still don't think you're under attack, here, nearly as much as you seem to be feeling it. :)

I'm just saying, relax. Your opinion clearly wasn't very popular and the rest of the c0r made their feelings on the subject well known. Everyone knows you're a good guy, and we're not trying to hate on you, but many people would feel disrespected if you showed up to their wedding in sneakers, and you cannot refute this belief amongst many in this thread. That's fine if you choose to do it, but many also believe it reflects poorly on your character. You're still a good guy, and nobody will hold a grudge, so take a chill pill buddy. :)

Hey zip, how about you relax? Ok?
Dick.
I tell you, man. These Kentuckians. Always on edge.

You know what, ? Lebron James sucks! :mad:
Lira
All right, I guess I over reacted sorry... but I reckon Renzo is right:

At a wedding there are only two people who ought to be making statements, and that statement is 'I do'.
No occasion for oneupsmanship.
