I always have to order online. Most stores don’t carry 14. And if they do it’s always some expensive uncomfortable shit. I got a couple pairs of pumas from Famousfootwear.com and they fit nice.
My son wears 18s. He found more than one pair at Ross Dress for Less. Requires frequent checks, which may be a while while it’s prudent for us to sit out this phase of the pandemic.
Is 18 a typo? You guys should be listing those shoes for rent on airbnb! I think the only shoes I've successfully ordered online are flip flops, not including ones I've tried on in the store then ordered online for cheaper.

Not laughing at you man but that shit will startle the shit out of you! LOL

Ever hear of a ermine? View attachment 4564166

Super cute right? 2 years ago we had a mouse problem in the winter.....well my wife said she thought it was bigger like a rat. And one day I was getting a fire going in the basement I swear I saw a rat.......fast forward to about 4am. I woke up to what I thought was someone banging a cookie pan. I remember thinking "guess I'm gonna find a rat". Well this ermine was dragging a dead rat across some forced hot air ducts. It looked at me like it'd fuck my shit up if I took its food. I talked with the local game warden and he said I was lucky LOL said I'd see it for a few days and probably never again. They come in and kill everything and store the dead bodies in their burrows.......stock pile them. Didn't have mice.....or chipmunks or squirrels that summer. Mean little fuckers!
Weasel family (Mustelids), all are ferocious carnivores that fight way above their weight class, culminating in the wolverine. Every few years or so a weasel will stop off at my place and decimate the ground squirrel population, then move on. Watching them at work is amazing.

And when they’re not in the luxe winter coat, all ya have is a plain old stoat.

I think the other name for wolverine is glutton. My search for how much one can eat at a sitting hasn’t yielded data.

But I did find other names: skunk bear, carcajou, quickhatch. The last is a corruption of the Cree word for wolverine.

Gulo gulo (Latin for glutton). Dunno about meal capacity, but they kill way more than they can eat at a sitting; so perhaps the casual observer stops there and doesn't see the wolverine cache his kill?
