[Culture] Heelys are dangerous

Am I getting old? Well, wearing shoes with wheels at your heel is sort of dodge to start off with. Coming down stairs, walking down an inclined slope. My fiancé mentioned today when he noticed a kid being dragged by his dad, does that mean kids are not getting excercise. Heh. He's got a point there. Plus I saw a girl with the attachable wheels to normal shoes, and she was walking around like she was wearing high heels, except the high heels are wheels. People will compare it to rollarblades, skateboards, but these are meant to be like normal shoes, and an instinct will be to walk with heel down before the rest of your foot. It's even made it to the 2006 most dangerous toys list.

Well, back in my day.... ROFL.
