Because walking around in your socks is just so uncool

I got a new travel bag today.  Inside were little bags to put various little things in and a pair of slippers.  Accompanying the slippers was a note that said:

Attention/Warning

The enclosed slippers are for “short term” use while going through airport security or while on board the aircraft.  They are not intended for normal “apparrel [sic] or footwear use” as they are “one size fits most” and may cause a tripping or falling hazard.

Overuse of quotations aside, I am incredibly amused by this.  The fact that the manufacturers of this bag thought to save airplane passengers from going barefoot, the warning that wearing these might cause you to trip over your own feet…oh, I’m still laughing.
