Description
Oh happy day it’s done. I’ve been working on these for around 6 months(?) I had difficulty finishing because I procrastinated on Hoggle. I figured he’d kill me.
But, I’m alive and well! 
Take that shoes So…I feel like the most important factor (other than the fact they clearly display my love for Labyrinth, my favorite movie ever), is that I painted them nearly entirely out of nail polish. Yeah…So, I present to you, my hardest works, my labyrinth shoes.
Left shoe, if you'd like to view (recommended, as it's the better one) : [link]
The Right, Protagonist Shoe:
Outside: A large Sarah drawn by , a bridge, and a little party-dress Sarah in a bubble (the latter two, by me)
Inside: Sir Didymus, Ludo, and Hoggle
Front/Toe: Little ball Jareth and a mask. Jareth’s half of a heart with “such” and “sad” written on it (put together the shoes say “such a sad love”) and “But I’ll be there for you, as the world falls down” written above him.
On the back (not shown): A peach. (the peach looks crappy anyway, you’re not missing out.
Lyrics around the base of the shoe from: “Underground” and “As the World Falls Down”
Note: The glitter spray got a little close to this shoe, so a bit of the writing got smeared and had to be fixed.
Special thanks to Steph!
Labyrinth is the magnificent film baby of Jim Henson and George Lucas

I haven't seen that movie in sooooooooooo long but as I've been looking at the characters all the memories have been rushing back.
I'm very much liking how you've used typography.
I'd put writing on my shoes but first I'd have to take the mirrors off.

I'm glad these inspired memories.
I like to write something relevant on shoes. It makes them identifiable and fills the gap I guess?
Well, that's just the mirrors on the tip, isn't it? You could write on the sides AND keep the mirrors. All right!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Writing on the sides could make a good lure too. Some girl in a skirt could make a remark about the writing on the shoes and when she bent down to have a look you could slide a foot forward and see what there is to see.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dude, you’re on late. 
Please. It’s me you’re talking to!
Wouldn’t she be focusing on that foot, though? If she’s bending down to see it, I think she’d notice it move. Plus, you’re assuming a girl who doesn’t know what the mirrors are for, has interest at looking at a stranger’s shoes, and wears a skirt would be smart enough to read. You might want to stick to pretty pictures, instead.

Waitaminute...how did YOU know it was late?
Ah but you could have the mirror on one shoe and while she's looking at the OTHER shoe your mirrored foot could be sneakily sliding forward.
But you're probably right. I should just look at pictures of what's up skirts instead of trying to see the real thing.

Well, I know you live in Australia and I have another friend I talk to that lives there on the west coast and since time zones increase in time as they go east, logically you’d have to be 15 hours ahead of me or later.
But she’d see it in periphery. And unless you have impeccable balance, I’d think moving both your feet away from your torso would cause you to fall backwards.
Oh, I meant pretty pictures on your shoes, as to intrigue the illiterate, yet attractive population.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh I see. Nice bit of logic there. 
But maybe I could be sitting. 
Yeah I knew...I was just looking for an excuse to look at naughty pictures.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dude. I guess people forget about time zones in general, but still. That's pretty stupid. You'd think there'd be that logic of "different country, it's probably not the same time". :/
That's quite an ingenious plan. I also like the Animaniacs quote tacked on to it.
Well, I don't see why those naughty pictures have to be instead of the really thing and not in addition to it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I guess I could understand not knowing the time difference...but still...you'd think people would still suspect some sort of difference. 
They do know the world isn't flat...right? 
It's less work to get your hands on some pictures.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, it works the other way around, too. I’ve had an Australian tell me that my experience was “last winter” even though it had been summer here. :/ I think the last bit’s a little sad. But that’s true everywhere, I know there’s killer local shows I’m missing from other places. I’ve never seen a Bollywood movie, for example.
Gee, I hope so. 
But so much less satisfactory, in my opinion. You can’t three-dimensionally fondle a photograph or a video. Actually, what do I know? I like boobs and I have boobs, easy for me. And even though I like men, penises still kinda weird me out, so I don’t need a photo or to see it. Hmmm…
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well at least there's Aussies out there fighting back at the misconception.
No Bollywood ay? I'm knee deep in Bollywood here. There's the t.v channel that a couple times a year has a Bollywood season. 
But keep in mind that apart from Grease I don't actively try to watch musicals. Especially not musicals that go for eight friggin' hours! 
Ah...but with a healthy, virile imagination you could put yourself in the photo.
Or better yet...get the person to come out. And then get them to flip through the magazine and bring some friends too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They seem addicting. So full of energy.
If it's good, I can do three hours. A lot of musicals are, since they were originally produced on the stage. I, for example, love Fiddler on the Roof.
Haha, you've made the "Helloooo" less sexy now.
What, no pillow fight?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah...you mean like someone who will deliberately correct you on what season it is even though they know full well you're right?
Yeah. Those people sure can be a pain in the ass.
Yeah I'll give them that. The song and dance numbers they do are pretty spectacular looking. 
I think that's why I've never made an effort to go see a musical. I can't sit through a three hour movie so I don't think I'd find a three hour live show much fun. And it would kind of a waste of money if I walked out after an hour.
Nah...pillow fights ain't sexy. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, because, as I said, he’s a pain in the ass.
Haha, do you correct people on their seasons, dear?
And they usually jingle, too! Big dance numbers are usually a crowd pleaser.
Ha, I’d make you stay. “Sit your ass down!”
Pah. Fake boobs are no fun. They’re charming to look at, but there’s not much underneath and they aren’t so much fun to touch. Not like the real thing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nope. I don't correct anyone. I'm so wise that I always factor in the hemispheres when discussing climate.
You'd have to drag me to one first before you could try and make me sit down. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, I love him so I tolerate it. Most of the time, I just find it amusing.
You're such a good boy *pats*
I could do it. I may be 5 feet tall, but I'm fierce, baby. I'd get you into that theatre one way or another.
Well, I've touched the ones women wear on the outside, like to move their boobs up and still have boobs underneath. They're too tough. But they stick to windows extremely well.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah...I imagine that if you were set on getting someone into a theatre there wouldn't be much they could do about it. 
Oh right...those silicon thingies they wear on the outside.
I don't know. This whole attraction game makes about as much sense as a chimney on a submarine.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Plus I'm little and cute. You don't want to upset something like that
Yup. Same with the wonderbra. However, someone commenting on the latter made a good point of "If he's only interested in seeing what my boobs look like, he's not who I want to be with anyway." Generally, it's more of a fashion thing than a lure, really.
Would it make sense to do it the bird way and have the males colorful and do a little dance (seems to work for gay men
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmmm...well I guess that not having bazoombas myself I don't really know the whole thinking behind dressing them up. 
I think it would.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You know you love it
Hmm...I dunno. Misconceived notions of what the opposite sex wants? Every guy seems to spout the "I like girls in jeans and t-shirts" but are those the ones you ever see with boyfriends?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah I do.
Ah...you mean like the mating call of a bird or something. Yeah...I can see that. And whichever male has the sweetest song has the most success.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, now you found a Stan one, huh?
Was she before they dated?
Aw, come on, you can win girls over with "Ca-Caw!" and wild arm flappery.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Personally, I think I'd rather have the girl who is impressed by the ridiculous bird act than one who'd prefer tradition. The former seems much more interesting and would be a better companion.

What?! Clyde and Craig get ones but Kahl doesn't?! Craig just looks like Stan with another hat. :/
Precisely...so what's with that look afterward? Why so unimpressed?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I was hoping there would be one for Jimmy.
But no. Once again Jimmy gets no love.
That was a look of contempt for people doing things the traditional way.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Other than from hookers
What've you got time for?
But I'm glad they gather much disgust from you. The normies can take a hike. I doubt their truly happy in their conformity anyway. Pshaw.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's probably because he's famous.
Ummmmmmm...lots of stuff!
I think that's why the "norms" expect everyone to do things their way. Because they don't want to be the only ones with a miserable existence.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lot of pressure.
Haha. But not mating rituals, huh?
But then you have the Goths who only live through the pain in life to bring misery to the conformists.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah but he's just a kid. He has to learn things the hard way I guess.
Ho Ho Ho...make fun of my lack of confidence around women would we?
Yeah...you probably should.
YEAH! Misery to the conformists...by all dressing black and listening to the same music.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I suppose. Such dangers aren't generally proposed to 8 year olds. Also, the education in South Park is kind of lacking. Only Mr. Mackey seems to say that drugs are bad, mmmkay? And I doubt he's taken too seriously.
Haha, no. You said something like it would be too much work.
And drinking coffee, don't forget that!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Really? I've never seen them question him.
Yes you did, sir.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmmm...I think when he was teaching the class about drugs he didn't know what to say. I can't remember if anyone questioned him but I know he had to study because he didn't know anything.
See? This is why I just stay away from that whole area of life. The rules Xandi. THE RULES!!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha. Well what do you need to know? You just have to know they're bad, mmkay?
Well, if you want something, you spend time on it, right? If you want a girl, you gotta let her know she's of some importance to you. If you're not going to bother why should she?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well I'd wanna know WHY they are bad.
Exactly right. That's why I don't get involved in all that stuff. Because I'm not prepared to put in any effort.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm. Good point. But people ON the drugs will always tell you they're not doing them any harm. Pot isn't addictive, I won't get hooked on meth, blah blah blah. Stoned liars.
Then you don't get to complain or be down on yourself for lack of girl love. There's only so much a girl can do to try to show she likes you and to try to get you to realize her and like her, too. You show no interest, she'll just pack up and move on figuring you just didn't like her, however contrary to that you really feel.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Or they'll just flat out deny taking them.
Oh don't worry...I don't blame the girls for the lack of romantic escapades in my life. I blame myself for my closed off distrustful ways.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, yes they do. I think the heroin messes up their brain so the fix is the most important. Lying and telling the truth are blurred and don't matter as long as you get the drugs.
But it's so sad! You're wonderful. I'd hate to think you can't psych yourself into being around girls and are denying my gender such a great opportunity.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh it does.
I can be around girls.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oy. See, I've known cool druggies that don't pressure people to join or try to pretend it isn't a big problem, but I've also known the other type that try to recruit people to their stoned lifestyle. For some reason, it reminds me of those trying to get people to convert religiously. The druggies want you to experience their high, and the religious fanatics want you to experience their love and salvation. Not different methods, really.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't think I've known druggies that were either of those things. 
Oh I know. I have many experiences, stored in my mental filing cabinet, of times I've acted like a complete tool.
But then I got ahold of myself (giggidy) and now I don't do that anymore.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I bet it would be. There can't be anything good about a bunch of needles everywhere, especially used ones.
Lucky self.

that was my all time favourite movie until i ruined it on new years day by getting really really stoned and watch the movie ive never even been able to look at it since T.T
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, I bet that would ruin it. I'm sure it's terrifying if you're high. I've always said to myself "I need more stoner friends" because I watch such trippy stuff, but not under the influence. So it ruins not enhances, huh?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well I mean, I was really stoned and the goblin things are scary as they are, and that movie is pretty trippy as it is too... 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, I never intend to get high, thank you. *eyeroll*
