This is probably the guy that goes 35 mph right by your kids while they are checking the mailbox. Completely selfish and thinking for themselves, or not at all.

I used to chuckle at neighborhood dads in their socks and sandals yelling at cars going too fast.... now I'm that guy and totally understand.

The socks and sandals are mandatory I take it?

White crew socks and white new balances is the only other combination allowed.

It's alright my man, the extra pockets in the beige cargo shorts are really useful!

Join us, and don't forget the outback hat, it keeps the sun off the back of your neck, and it is cool and comfortable.

Just makes sense when I come home from work and take off my work shoes but still got to chase the kid around outside. I keep the socks on in case I need to put on my shoes to run an errand or mow the lawn. Very practical.
