What IS the fascination?

Before half term is upon us, and looking at another thread currently active I wondered what the fascination is with the VERY frequent posts we have about the price of plimsolls etc?

I mean , here we are , a group of usually older people, the wealth of the world's wisdom at our finger tips and a group of people think its funny to witter on about the price of school uniforms and plimsolls?

Its not like its contentious- its not about sex, or drugs or rock and roll- its about footwear normally? So its not like they are looking to shock....maybe hoping to bore a few of us to death maybe?

If anyone has an explanation for this phenomenon please share?

I wasn't being precious, it's just that I'm aware of being an Olympic standard witterer. blush

I'm losing my faith in human nature here. What is the world coming to when you can't even rely on an ugg boots thread? sad
