Wolervine

  • DroppEdit has compiled a freakishly long list of Scenes in Movies and TV featuring People Wearing One Shoe. At first, I thought, “WTF?” Then, I started thinking about it, and I realized that a woman loosing a shoe is a frequently used affectation. Then, I started wondering why anyone would compile this list, and I was all “WTF?” again.
