A seasonal plague has (re)descended upon us.

They're small.

They're fury.

And they're absolutely uggly:


I don't know who decided to blow the dust off the stockpiles of ugg boots and fill the stores for the apparently ugg-boot hungry masses... but what i want to know is ha-why? (thank you centex bank commercial last new year's)

Unless you're Bjork (or any other unfortunate individual that happens to live on a bit of ice and rock poking up out of far northern waters) or an Argentinean alpaca herder, there's no need to dress yourselves in raccoon and elk hide from the knee down.

I've never read the bible, but I'm sure ugg boots are right after that part about locusts.
