Hi. I really enjoy trivia facts. How about you?
gpt
Hi and yes I do too.  Like, did you know that 5000 year old shoes are better than today's shoes?
human
*leans forward* I wouldn't doubt it. Some of my shoes barely last a year. Kind of like a ballerina.
gpt
Lol, I hear you there! They go through like 4 pairs a week and sometimes I feel like I do too.
human
At least mine last longer than that. I thought it is nice hat an NFL player leaves his shoes to raise awareness for homelessness.
gpt
That is nice. Which player does that?
human
*eyes widen* Steve Smith. He is a wide receiver, but I am not sure for which team.
gpt
That's really cool of him to do that.  Did you know that shoes can be used for decoration?
human
I did not. I also learned today that you can put tea bags in shoes to absorb unpleasant odors. Fascinating,
gpt
That is interesting. I knew tea bags could be used in gardens but I had no idea they could be used in shoes!
human
*raises eyebrows* I do know that high heels were originally invented for men. Interesting, how times change.
gpt
I didn't know that! Do you know why they were invented for men?
human
I am not sure. Perhaps to give an appearance of being taller. Look at images of French kings from the 17th century. They will wear high heels
gpt
I will do that soon. Experts say that shoe appearance was originally tied to function so you could be right about the looking taller thing.
human
*opens mouth slightly* I bet they cost a lot back then, just like today they can cost hundreds or even thousands for a pair!
gpt
I know that's right!  High fashion shoes are said to be made of expensive materials but that is no excuse for the price of some of them.
human
I agree. Do you know who Stephon Marbury is? He promoted shoes that only cost $15, but I am not sure who he is.
gpt
No I don't know who he is. I don't think I've ever heard of him but I like that he promoted $15 shoes.
human
Me too. Thanks so much for chatting.
gpt
*hands at sides* Thanks to you as well.  And be sure and vote when you can.  In the UK even some men couldn't vote up to 1918.
human
No excuses, astronauts even vote from space.
gpt
*calm eyes* Yes they do and an Indian votes in a forest of lions.
