Just paint your foot??
I like going outside barefoot but this is just disgusting.
The store owner, standing in front of the “No Shirt, No Shoe, No Service” sign looking like:
(Btw, this is a great way to getting tetanus 🤭)
I avoid tetanus by not standing like this
Tetanus is a disease made up by corporations to sell more anti-rust “solutions”! Hemoglobin is Oxygen bound to Iron, how could Oxygen bound to Iron hurt you???
True. I never work a mask in 2020 and I turned out just fine. Don’t even understand how tiny crown shaped object or whatever woke shit they make up could even hurt me. I survived just fine. A “crown” virus? LMFAO. I wear my crown 👑 like a king 🤴, wtf is a mini crown RNA bullshit, complete utter nonsense.
/s
Yeah! I identify with the OG Frenchfries, No Gods, No Kings! I’m happy to see a comrad happy to fight a “crown” wearing royal-ass virus, probably the fault of English imperialism or papist bullshit! !!
Damn I coulda saved money on getting my soles redone
Soles redone: $IDK, ask the local Faeries whilst the cobbler naps.
Barefoot: $Priceless!
That’s kind of disgusting.
Not kind of! Lol
It’s absolutely disgusting!
Based.
Based on my understanding of the state of the ground in cities, that is absolutely disgusting.
Back in my hippie days, we would do a little trick. You get some hemp. Few beads. Whatever. Tie it around your big toe then loop it around your ankle. So it looks like you are wearing flip flops at a glance.
Did it all the time.
As a more informed person. I do not really recommend walking barefoot anywhere except a park or your own space. And beaches.
Cause dogs literally pee on every surface that exists in a city.
And also hepatitis.
Glass. Other sharp things.
Even if you have thick soles, they can take out gashes of it.
And the sidewalk is hella hot in the summer.
Go barefoot at your own risk. But know the risks. Mkay.?
i tried to do it for a summer as a kid in a rural area and my feet got very gross indeed and I had a lot of painful experiences. but I feel that’s the only way to do it safely, to be a kid in a small safe rural place where there is like grass to walk on
I’d say dog pee is the least concerning thing on the list.
Also, parasites 😬
Why stop at the feet?
I haven’t seen the most recent seasons lol
The thing about this I don’t understand is why. Is it supposed to be to exist in as much of a natural state as possible?
Not a barefoot person but I’ve heard it claimed that its better for your feet. Seems off to me but its not like we evolved shoes so what do I know?
It’s better for your feet in soft soil & grass. Our feet evolved to walk on soil, high milage walking on concrete will damage your feet.
If you wear mis-fitting shoes your feet will also get damaged.
People that walk around cities barefoot need to be avoided at all costs.
I once saw a girl very abruptly stop walking on a rather busy street, throw herself down on a nearby bench in a hurry, take out her stuff from her tote bag and just start knitting with an oddly peaceful expression on her face as if nothing happened. I was left wondering what the fuck I just witnessed. Happened in the span of like 4 seconds.
Yes she was barefoot.
Sounds like she was also mentally ill, dang.
people who care this much about what others wear need to be avoided at all costs
People who say people should be avoided at all cost, should be avoided at all cost.
No wait, I mean… 🤔
I’m gonna follow you now. So there.
Why are you walking barefoot whilst constricting your toes that’s confusing me
That’s how you pick up all the soup ingredients for later.
Earth Spice.
reverse sandals
Sladnas
“Hookwoorms, get in my feet please!”
unless you’re in a place where human shit flows freely, that is not much of a concern. stores are usually not such places.
SOMEBODY’S never been to a Ross Dress For Less, I see…
Its funny you say this because I once went in a Ross with my wife and someone had taken a monster shit in one of the aisles. It was absolutely horrific. I think about it every time she wants to go to Ross now. I don’t think I’ve gone in one with her since.
Canine worm can spread to humans and can cause blindness
City streets on the other hand
Ok. I guess this was the additional detail that I needed. Don’t walk in human shit in order to avoid hookworms. Check. Noted.
Also all the tire dust that is releasing chemicals onto the skin.
definitely don’t think about what breathing it in does to you :)
Totally!! Glad those closed toe shoes are saving us all! /s just in case
also like, yes i’m sure our soles have evolved to be great absorbtion pads, not like we’d ever step on bad things in the wild
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Humans suck at remembering history when they can’t see the consequences anymore.
Humans suck as remembering history?
Hookworms isn’t why stores require shoes. It’s because of hippies. Laws typically require employees to wear shoes and even then it depends on the workplace.
I sometimes question if we are truly the same species.
we are very diverse
illegal???
Stores can’t dictate what’s legal, so this is not illegal. It’s just not allowed under some store rules, but the most they can do is kick you out.
There is an actual belief out there that your feet get some sort of power by connecting to mother nature barefoot. It’s insane woo nonsense, but that meme lifehack literally would be something they might do, lol
The linoleum floor of a supermarket is a godless abomination, further from mother nature than any other surface
‘linoleum’ is one of those words you read and immediately have to feel what its like to say. Like evel knievel
Linoleum floor in a supermarket? Haven’t seen that in the US nor Mexico.
I’ve seen it in local grocery stores in really small towns. Never a supermarket
Still quite common in Australia, in old, shitty places
Are you sure that it’s linoleum, and not VCT?
Nothing quite like a spiritual connection with concrete
ugh, i hate that woo-woo “grounding” bullshit. gives the rest of the barefooters a bad name. honestly there’s so many good reasons to go unshod without bringing in magical nonsense.
Wanna get grounded, stick a fork in an electrical socket.
#1 being that if i wore shoes in the summer i would have to periodically empty out the ocean of sweat in them
I once found a pair of barefoot running sandals online that were otherwise normal with rubber soles etc, but had a copper rivet inserted through the sole to facilitate that connection to earth.
There are people who tie a wire around their toe to ground them to the earth when they sleep in bed… So
Connecting to some basic ass tile work.
Daring to call linoleum “tile work” is like calling a Walmart a “home”
But those are tiles in the he picture.
Fair enough. Withdrawn!
just wait until someone in your circles finds out about “frequency therapy”.
That would be an awesome name for some EDM production
I’ve seen this somewhere before and they are an influencer who really is all about being barefoot everywhere
The flexy guy?
He wears toe shoes
Toph-core
“Finally! A fashionable shoe for the blind earthbender.”
