One drunken night 15 years ago I remember walking barefoot into a gas station to get cigarettes and the guy behind me told me my foot was bleeding. I found out I stepped on a broken piece of glass and left a blood footprint trail for about a quarter mile. It was on the ball of my foot, so it was the ball and first three toes in blood all the way down the sidewalk back towards the house party I had walked from.
My friend told me he walked that way the next day he was really impressed at how straight of a line it was in if I was drunk enough to not notice and bleed enough to feel it. Not sure I was supposed to take pride in that.
Glass is sharp as hell. A sharp cut in desensitized skin is genuinely hard to notice. So, don't beat yourself up too much!

Yeah, using OP's picture it cut like this, so it was likely a glass cup or bottle that someone has cracked or just how my foot managed to bend when stepping. I just walked back, poor rubbing alcohol on it, put 2 things of super glue in it and kept drinking. What else are you supposed to do in college

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.

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.

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.?
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?
-
unless you're in a place where human shit flows freely, that is not much of a concern. stores are usually not such places.

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.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]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.

That’s exactly what I was thinking. Humans suck at remembering history when they can’t see the consequences anymore.

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.

Damn I coulda saved money on getting my soles redone

That's kind of disgusting.
It's absolutely disgusting!

That is so asinine. Don’t go places that require shoes or just wear shoes if you have to.
Or, get body paint and paint on a pair of shoes. At least that takes some skill and you don’t look like a spoiled jerk.Thank you for calling my ass a nine, it's mostly a strict diet of MacDonalds and Whiskey Sours!
That aside, become ungovernable.

Soles redone: $IDK, ask the local Faeries whilst the cobbler naps.
Barefoot: $Priceless!

Since when is it illegal? Nobody has ever raised any objection, let alone tried to stop me going dogs out to the shops.
I’m curious, and have two questions:
- Have you previously read/heard the phrase “No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service”?
- If you don’t mind answering, what region do you call home?
-
The flexy guy?
He wears toe shoes
-
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

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

Why stop at the feet?
