    Slippers v your age

    When my partner reached the grand old age of 43, I bought him some slippers to let him know he's (exactly 3 months) older than me :
    What I didn't realise was that they came with a detatchable black and white hairy/growly thing - our 18 month old Jack Russell. The damned dog just loves grabbing any slippered foot passing, then clings on like a demon until shaken off or bashed on a door frame. He's not exactly gnawing to the bone, but he's determined

    Anyway, are slippers an old man thing?
    Go ahead, admit your slipper wearing secrets

    I'm 25 and been wearing slippers for a good few years. When you're a student they're advisable as there's always crap all over the floor
    You're so beige, you probably think this signature is about someone else.

    I've worn slippers since I was a wee kid. So long as you don't wear them outside the house, no problem.

    I've been wearing slippers for years... Although the current pair, Homer Simpson heads, are in desperate need of retirement now.

    I have some nice pink Jack Wolfskin slippers. We have a concrete floor downstairs. Our kitchen currently only has a lino flooring (because it was free) but it also means your feet can become like iceblocks after a while if your cooking or cleaning without your slippers on. There's definately nothing wrong with wearing slippers.
    My phone has an alarm clock! Ner Ner! :p

    A Finnish company has made an 80 year old slipper design a fashion item in Finland. Even teenagers wear them:
