I'd argue it's a toned down version of these. Go to any mostly Mexican party/club, and you see these.

…elongating the toe of normal boots by as much as 5 feet (1.5 m)

That’s excessive.

It's only worse with seagulls. I saw a cool big speckled seagull once and decided to google how it's called. It's called "big speckled seagull". A small gray seagull would be called a "small grey seagull". All the other animals are usually called something cool, like if you see a big beaver, it's "Johnson's beaver", or an eagle, and it's called a "southern nesting eagle".
Then a fucking seagull is a fucking seagull.
