You’re over reacting.

Ballet slippers won’t dent a car.

Actually the car-kicking anecdote I shared, which for some reason Eaker decided to take personally (since I guess he must identify with the kind of aggressive driving I decribed) occurred when I was in my early 20s and was on my way to work installing commercial garage doors. So no, it wasn't "ballet slippers". Steel-toed boots are naturally required for such work (in case your foot gets caught underneath) and so I likely put a nice-sized dent in that car that almost hit me.

Although I believe ballet dancers happen to also be exceptional athletes, and could likely dent a car just as badly in just their slippers.
