depression slippers

It's a metaphor for the wearer (person) that has the big sad and needs mental support because they are probably gay. They often feel like they are left out or lonely and tend to listen to sad and depressing music.

This is because slippers often look as if they are sloping or saggy we associate that they're sad or depressed.

((CREDIT TO KALLIE FOR FOUNDER OF THIS PHRASE.))

Person 1: Dude, why is that girl so sad?
Person 2: She has been wearing her depression slippers a lot lately.

Glass slippers

In "Cinderella", a ridiculous mis-translation from the French. The original story, handed down orally, centered around "Vair" slippers, vair being squirrel fur. But "vair" sounds like "verre", the French word for glass, and so it continued. Fur slippers make perfect sense. But glass??

Cinderella felt sorry for the handsome prince, kneeling before her. She wondered what kind of idiot expected her to take two steps in glass slippers, when the beloved pair she had lost were made of fur. "I mean, glass shoes? Really?"
