When I was a younger man, these types of boots (remember, I was once a cobbler) had a very specific, action-packed name. I wonder if it's still in use?

I know I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of a swift kick from them.
We need a cobbler around here... winter's approaching, and two favored pairs of boots have problems.
My mom called my boots 'hooker boots', and she helped me pick out my first pair as a teen. I'm 40 now, and I've been replacing/repairing something like those ever since.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
My favorite quote from childhood is this one:
"I brought you into this world, I can take you out."
Also,
"Go pick a switch. You don't want me to do it." Oh, and:
"I will slap you into next week."
Mine was "go get a bath, you're not sitting at table in that state" ;-)

Very civilised. Moreso than my crazy parents.
I don't want to mop the floor...
But I probably should...

Very laid back hippies for parents, there wasn't much i couldn't get away with so long as it was legal and didn't hurt anyone. Trailing mud through the house wasn't allowed, (that included dad who was a farmer)
You should, you don't want the cats having dirty paws ...

Hey my parents were hippies too, but they were the John Denver/Carpenters/Joan Baez kind. We always had really cool people in our house.
TRUE STORY TIME:
When I actually started my period, my mom had a beautiful and very glamorous African American friend over. I remember that she wore a lot of orange and that she had on a head scarf and big golden hoop earrings on as well. Anyway, my mom told her (of course, which mortified me) and I remember that we all drank some tea and that my mom's friend kept saying that I was "a woman now."
I mopped the floor.
I guess the cats can carry on without worry now.

Yawning more than focusing on my tablet, to me that's a sign that I'm in need of some sleep.

Goodnight. I am about to go watch a movie.
It really is a good thing that they took a picture.
I had ordered a couple of very Indian rumaals from a seller in Rajasthan on Etsy.

Hooker boots is close to what we called them. It was closer to "Duck Tree Boots".
I've had a few people make the mistake that my boots were of the duck tree variety.
I've found said boot to the groin area is an easy way to correct those misconceptions.
I'm really not as much fun as I look.
Ladies boots over the knees, i don't see as attractive. The laced over the calf boots I think are appealing.
@JustGeorge , I like the boots you picked.
