How is this satisfying? All I can think about is how you have to carry that damn hook everywhere!

Much more fitting, and don’t call me Shirley!

I don't often audibly guffaw at reddit comments, but I'll be damned if yours didn't make me guffaw.

"guffaw" that's a new one and rather fitting.

A gentleman never takes their shoes off other than the privacy of their own boudoir. Not even their wives are allowed to see their delicant ankles, least she leaves him for a thick-ankled commoner.

All I can think about is how you can't adjust the tightness like you can with laces.

All I can think of is how ridiculously long it takes to put the boots on. Fuck that, if I can't slide my foot into my shoe and go, I'm out. My shoes are pre-tied for maximum efficiency.

I also put button-up dress shirts on like a t-shirt. Why do I have to button all these damn buttons?!

Why? You leave it at home, everywhere else your boots are staying on.
