Someone just gifted me some Trump Scotland slippers

[hamsterjill]

What should I do with them? This person knows I am a Democrat and a fervent Hillary supporter, and I guess they thought this was funny.

I need some creativity, DU. But if It's anything having to do with my cat's litterbox, I've already got that idea covered.

1. Please post a photo.

We'll think of something...

[hamsterjill]

2. Sure, but can you tell me how to post a photo?

I just never do it on DU.

I need to learn.

6. Open an account on a free photo-sharing site like Photobucket or Flickr.

Take the picture, send it to your computer and upload it to the site. Then paste the link the site gives you for that photo into your post. There's a little busy work getting the photo hosting site set up but once it's done, posting photos is quick and easy.

8. I'll try it when I get a little time.

(I'm at work right now).

In the meantime, they are normal, ordinary terry cloth slippers with "Trump Scotland" monogrammed on the top in (what else!) gold script lettering.

Pretty cheesy, actually.

10. If you have a cat, you could wear them whenever

you might expect to step in cold cat vomit in the middle of the night.

[hamsterjill]

15. Oh, I have cats!! LOL

I do cat rescue, so I've got plenty of possibilities.

Photo posted down thread.

16. Then you must be very familiar with the phenomenon

of cold (or warm, eww) cat vomit between your toes in the middle of the night.

[hamsterjill]

19. Too familiar!!!

LOL

3. Thank them for the matching kitty litter scoops! How thoughtful!

[blogslut]

4. Ditto about taking a photo

Look for a tag/label/imprint of where the slippers were manufactured. I'm betting it ain't Scotland.

[hamsterjill]

5. I'm sure you are 100% correct.

There's no tag on them. They are in a sealed plastic (cheap looking) bag and they don't appear to be made very well.

[blogslut]

7. With footwear

...the manufacturer info is often imprinted on the insole or sole.

9. Like these?

[demmiblue]

12. OMFG!

[OhioChick]

17. Aren't those Gucci?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

18. My cats would try to kill those.

[hamsterjill]

24. Damn. I'm sorry, but that picture is

U-G-L-Y!!!!

35. Jeez Louise!

[IcyPeas]

20. these slippers are very classy...

they are fantastic, they are terrific, they are unbelievable, they are incredible, they are amazing, they are tremendous.

I read on the internet that Ivanka looks great in them.

These slippers are going to make Scotland great again.

[hamsterjill]

22. But, of course!!!

LOL

I should have known. And these slippers have friends. Wonderful friends. Great friends. People that love them. Trillions and trillions and trillions of people that love them.

21. Don't you have to traverse a meadow somewhere?

One with lots and lots of dairy cows?

[hamsterjill]

23. You know, I just might have to.

Might have to get to that meadow via that pig farm down the road, too!

[gratuitous]

25. Don't forget to send them back afterwards

Wrong size. Or something.

[hamsterjill]

26. Kind of "Re-Gifting"

In the crappiest sense, right? LOL LOL LOL

[irisblue]

27. fly swatters? mosquito swatter?

those are a ....wow.

[MerryBlooms]

28. Auction them off and then donate the proceeds to your favorite charity.

[hamsterjill]

30. Not a bad idea!

N/t

[MerryBlooms]

31. .

But you gotta strike while the iron's hot.

[eppur_se_muova]

32. You could turn them into planters ... grow a little catnip in them.

"Catnip" to be interpreted as you will.

[MichiganVote]

33. Give them to the nearest homeless person/shelter. They prob. won't wear them either.

[lame54]

34. I'll take 'em - i ran out of dog waste bags

[no_hypocrisy]

36. E-Bay
