I mean, fair enough, there's nothing much grosser on the sole of a foot than on the sole of a shoe. Both those shoes are unprofessional. Chemtrails and people cursing out barefoot people for being barefoot never happened. Conclusion: this particular person who prefers to not wear shoes is a fuckin weirdo

Dear Op, I went with your advice and went barefoot. In the past hour, I have lost 7 toes due to the winter elements. Enclosed is an Invoice of all expenses incurred, toes soon to follow in future delivery.

I cant speak for other places but my workplace won't let people run around barefoot in here because it's a huge store and poo poo gets broken on the floor all the time and you never know when whoever cleaned it up might have missed a shard of glass. I once knelt down to stock something on a bottom shelf and caught a bit of glass to the knee, got a nice little bloodstain on my pants. Some shoeless jerk gets unlucky and welp. Our local no shoes guy got banned from the store over it.

Sorry for the derail but I fuckin love me some racoons

quote:

Two species of hookworms that commonly infect humans are Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus. Hookworm eggs occur in the stool of infected people. If these end up in the environment, they can hatch into immature worms, which can then penetrate the skin. One type can also be spread through contaminated food. Risk factors include walking barefoot in warm climates where sanitation is poor. Diagnosis is by examination of a stool sample with a microscope.

Screaming is legal! Shops and restaurants will try to make you leave just for exercising your right to scream at the top of your lungs for no reason, but there is actually no law against it! Stand up (and scream) for your rights!

I never understood foot fetishists, do they suck on the toes, or get stepped on, or what?

rear end fetish makes so much more sense.

I see people here in Sydney walking around barefoot outside all the time in summer. I wouldn't do it myself but I'm generally barefoot at home when it's warm enough and then Uggs when it's cold.

I'm confused by this one. They want to show that ZERO laws exist? Like, are they going to start with barefoot and then speeding and then go out and murder people?

I'm also from Sydney and went back this Christmas for the first time in half a decade. There was something unexpectedly nostalgic about seeing all these bogans and surfies walk around supermarkets barefoot, shirtless, and in boardies. It makes no sense, but there's something paradoxically charming about seeing someone give so few shits that they would rather put their health at risk than spend the 10 seconds to grab a pair of thongs

Feet are loving gross as poo poo, I don't even like my own feet, if I didn't need them I'd happily chop them off, that's why I keep them constantly encased in the thickest, strongest sabatons the local blacksmith can forge, only taking my disgusting feet out of them for occasional washing, done, of course, by a pauper boy, I won't be touching them, that's for sure.

People are far too precious these days. If someone doesn't want to sleep with you because your feet are all cut up and covered in old dog poo poo then they're not worth your time, sorry. Simple as that

It's kinda cool but impractical imo. I've seen a documentary about some kind of rural barefoot runners in Africa a while ago and if you do it long enough, your whole sole becomes this hardened calloused surface.

There is a guy on my block who walks his dog barefoot whenever it's above 10 degrees, it's pretty weird but whatever.
