shoevering

The process of emergency cleaning of the floor by scraping your shoe along the skirting board to collect piles of dog hair and crumbs, without having to get the hoover out.

A anciant ritual in which you throw your old shoes out the window, so that the Shoe Reeper may take them to his plane in which he has mystical-undead-vietnamese-skeleton-children can take apart the shoes, and sew them back together with mystical-undead-vietnamese-skeleton-string and sell them back at discount prices, so the Reeper can raise enough money to get himself a (hard) ticket to Hawaii.
