If you stop wearing 'em, we'll stop posting 'em.

Big Bag Girl: I've spent so much of my money on shoes! I have no money left!
Ugg Boots Girl: Really?
Big Bag Girl: Yeah and it's sad because I want to buy some new really cute red Ugg boots.
Ugg Boots Girl: My Ugg boots are all I wear. In the summer, I wear them with all my skirts. It's just so cute!
Big Bag Girl: I know this guy that told me that he thinks that Ugg Boots are sooo ugly. He's like, "Any guy that dates a girl that wears Ugg boots must be retarded."
Ugg Boots Girl: Are you kidding me? Doesn't he know that we wear Ugg boots because guys think we look cute in them?
Big Bag Girl: Yeah, it's not like a girl can look cute in running shoes!

Most girls do things because they think it's what guys want... kinda sad. But if they didn't then they wouldnt get their M.R.S. degree right?

Bottom line: when you open any current fashion magazine, such as Elle, Cosmo, Vogue, etc., you DO NOT SEE THE MODELS WEARING UGGS! YOU DO NOT SEE ANY ADS WITH GIRLS WEARING UGGS! THEY ARE YESTERDAY'S NEWS, FOLKS. THEY WENT OUT OF STYLE IN 2002!

Yeah when I heard this, I almost died. I couldn't believe that they were so shallow as to think that a girl couldn't look good in running shoes...

If I may concur with the consensus here: athletic grils in running shoes are hot. uggs with a skirt look stupid (and they are SO 2003...)....

the score: running shoes 5, uggs 0

I have reason to believe that UGGS were brought to Earth by alien temporal agents from the year 3248 in an effort to destroy humanity and alter the future!

Uggs-wearing Western girls think they're SO fashionable and trendy....but they continue to wear styles that make them look like crap (e.g. droopy drawers joggin pants and tomato-face tans)AND like yesterday's news in terms of style. Bor-ing. Try harder ladies.

Who cares? If someone thinks Ugg's are cute, they're going to wear them .. nothing you people say here are going to change that

Uggs rule! Anyone who disagrees should have their throat slashed.

So heres some fun facts... Ugg boots have been in america since 1978. So, the fact that Western girls have been wearing them for the past 3 years - not such a big trend or fashion statement. They have been sold in Australia for years before that as they were made on the beaches there of - and here's the kicker - Sheepskin.

And they dont try to hide that, either. "UGG Australia has gone from a small time surf brand to the global leader in luxury sheepskin footwear." says so right on the website (uggaustralia.com). Could someone please explain to me how wearing sheepskin boots that have been around for over 25 years is trendy!

If you elect me as President of the USC next year, I promise to round up all those degenerate Ugg-wearers and place them in internment camps. This is clearly the final solution to deal with the vile Uggites. Judging by the comments here, I clearly have the backing of the people!

11:20.... please tell me that you are a female...

even if you're not i'd still like to help you on your quest to quarantine the ugg wearing population. it is also dream of mine to shave ugg boots, i think we should work together to rid campus of the ugg wearers.... or at least humiliate them....

I fear I may be part of a minority of men who couldn't give a rat's ass what kind of footwear a woman has on. They're shoes, they're the most utilitarian clothing item you wear.

If you think shoes are the thing that bridges the gap between you being cute and note cute, you have bigger issues than people thinking you're outdated.

At least they're not those stupid ugly moon boots. I think that for someone to want boots like these, their boot size is actually larger than their IQ. How'd they get to Western? On their knees wearing their boots.

I will not be defending the girls who basically sent all females back to the 1950s by suggesting that we only get dressed to please men...in fact, I sort of feel they should be shot. However, I am the proud owner of two pairs of Ugg boots. I once railed against them like all of you and I did not buy them to be cute; I still think they're ugly. But let's be honest, winter is cold and running shoes are not comfortable when snow is seeping in at the ankle: Ugg boots are the answer. Get over it, guys.

they are boots. end of story.
they don't say anything about a person's character.

ok, let me clarify... Uggs are NOT cute...simply put, they look like last night's road kill has been scraped off the pavement and wrapped around your legs... not to mention the ones that still have the squirrel's nuts flailing around on them!! And I'm sorry, but when it's cold in the winter, I prefer WATERPROOF footwear over a huge soggy piece of fur for a shoe... so please give the yeti his boots back and stop this fashion statement gone TERRIBLY wrong in its tracks. oh and to the person who RESEARCHED Uggs....wow, WAY too much time on your hands - find a hobby

pretty sad when you worry about what type of shoes a girl has on her feet. reality check, if we cared what guys wore on their feet or thought a guy with ugly shoes was "not cute" ..half of the male population would be single.

lets be serious here...if you have time to research how ugly these things are....how sad are you.?

when i first came to western, i too thought ugg boots were ugly and overdone. But over the past few years, i've gone through many boots that just weren't comfortable enough for my 10 hour days on campus...and not nearly half as wam as ugg boots. Most people don't know that you're not supposed to wear socks with ugg boots. It helps insulate the heat around your feet. The natural sheep shearling wicks away sweat and molds to the shape of your foot. Go ahead, i dare you to try them on. As my roommate Holly says, "it's like walking on clouds..."

I don't understand why so many people bash on Ugg boots. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions...and although there are girls out there like "Ugg Boots Girl" and "Big Bag Girl," not everyone who owns a pair of Ugg boots think like them.

I own a pair of Ugg boots and I LOVE them. I live in a place where it gets super cold in the winter, so they help keep my feet warm. However, I also think they're cute ( if they're not worn with super short shorts or a mini skirt ).

I personally think Crocs are uglier but I also own a pair of Crocs and they are super comfortable as well. I just wonder why more people flame Ugg boots than Crocs. But like I said, everyone is entitled to their own opinions so...

I just find it funny how heated people get talking about how much they hate Ugg boots and can't stand seeing other people wear them.

At least people that wear running shoes don't let them get full of salt stains, and they typically don't scuff their feet when they walk!

AND, what's with the LuLu Lemon tights and Ugg boot combination?! -- it's the Western uniform!

I think it doesn't matter if a guy likes your shoes... if he likes them a lot I would find another man.
