Weird Things That Happen On Flickr

I am a huge fan of Flickr. I can spend hours on it and I can't tell you how excited I was when I finally decided a few of my own photos were worthy of making my own account. I get very excited whenever I log in and see how many people have viewed my pics and even more excited with the occasional comment. Today I logged in to a little surprise though... Someone had added me as a friend! That almost never happens- I excitedly clicked on their name and linked through to their pictures to find... Shoes. Pink shoes. A man in pink shoes and purple roller blades and baby blue nikes. Hmm... So I looked at his profile to get a little more info, sometimes I don't catch on to artsy things, maybe this was art? Nope, not art. He just liked to wear women's shoes.   He belonged to tons of groups about men wearing women's shoes and about men who love female bondage. Needless to say I blocked him immediately. 

Weird people on the internet... Weird people. 

Ironically enough I had just bought my own pink Nikes (and subsequently returned them yesterday...) and posted this pic on my Flickr, I can only guess that this is how that odd little man found me... 

Lesson learned. I don't know what lesson, but lesson definitely learned.
