Are Dopies the new Crocs?

It's no secret that I think Crocs are stupid. They're everywhere, they're ugly, and -- up until 5 minutes ago -- I thought anything would be better than those brightly-colored monstrosities.
But then I found the Dopie -- quite possibly the silliest-looking piece of footwear mankind has ever created. While Crocs are modeled after clogs, the Dopie is modeled after flip-flops. The only major difference between Dopies and your standard thong sandal is that the strap across over the top of your foot isn't connected to the nub between your toes. That, and the fact that they come in a variety of shockingly loud neon colors -- for people who think that makes them look "funky."
Apparently Dopies are on their way to an REI near you, so do yourself a favor and stay away. If nobody buys them, we can stop this trend before it hits Wal-Mart.

Looks like this footwear should be called "camel toes." Ahem ...
