Ok… this is actually driving me INSANE and I may just lose it at the next person I see doing this:
Ladies, if you are wearing sandals and your toes go OVER the front or sides of the shoes… THEY’RE TOO SMALL!!!! Please, just get a size bigger so your damn toes aren’t scraping off the sidewalk, or if they’re hanging out the sides of the sandal, I’m sorry hun, your feet are just too wide. I’m a shoe lover and I know how this beautiful weather can be great for fancy sandals, but PLEASE… this is actually making your feet look NASTY. Don’t disrespect the shoes!!
On a side note, do people not know how to use toenail clippers or a nail file???
Pretty feet are happy feet!! —Keep ’em inside the lines!!

Maybe they’re doing a tribute to MAD magazine’s Don Martin and his hinged feet.

LMFAO – I loved Fester and Carbuncle.” DAWK”
And let’s not forget Mr. Phonebone.
sometimes if your toes go over the front of your sandals they’re too big. You have to look at the back where the heel is and gauge how much space is there.
I have a pair of sandals that my mom wore and stretched out. she’s one size larger than I am. Anyway I can’t wear them anymore because she stretched out the top part where your toe goes in and now my toes slip forward.
Either way the shoe doesn’t fit, OP, but it could be because they’re too big or too small.
Also: it’s not THAT hard to moisturize your feet, people and perhaps use a wooden foot file in the shower every second day along with those clippers.
As far as I am concerned, meat hanging out of clothing that are too small for people’s body mass is far more gross to having to see than toes slipping out of sandals.

PK you’re right… I should have noted that in my bitch… sometimes the sandals are too big. Either way, it’s annoying!
I couldn’t agree with you more about the foot file and some moisturizer!! Seriously, if you’re feet look like they need an ice pick DO SOMETHING.
NewToHalifax, I agree with you about that too, it is nasty when people wear clothes that are way too small and their fat hangs out over, but the foot thing really gets me.
THANK YOU! Thank you thank you thank you.
Pet peeve since I was about 7.
flipflops and socks—>riding a bike…very bad idea
There is nothing worse than seeing a beautiful woman, dressed to the nines, with lovely hair and make-up, then you look down, and bam, some shit from the crypt just chillin in the shoes.
I once had a lady come in, upset as hell but none the less dressed very fashionably and smellin’ schweeeeeeet. She turned to storm out, and in her last years Balmain knock of gladiator pumps, a pair of ROTTEN cracked heels. I chuckled.
Oh yeah and there’s nothing worse than the toes saying let’s go and the shoes saying wait a while.
hahahaha I love that “the toes saying let’s go and the shoes saying let’s wait a while”… comical.
Yeah this drives me nuts so I had to write a bitch about it
“Parasailing Donkey” – LOL in Russia it’s like being on spring break all the time, just a little more secret policey and concentration campey. Great pic of Emperor Palpatine , by the way.
Filing your feet in the shower with a good wooden foot file every second day really does work wonders. All you have to do is file the pads/balls, the bottom of the toes and the heels. Then get yourself a pair of moisturizing socks (like $3 at superstore), slather the cream on before bed, put the socks on and keep them on overnight.
It really is that simple.
Also, if you have a fungus, wear real shoes plz.
Alsox2: french tip toe nails just looks gross. Toe nails should not extend farther than the toe itself. I might get some flack for this for being “snotty” but…really. Just trim them to the length of your toe, put some polish on (optional for dudes :P) (and make sure the polish isn’t all gnarly and messy — a q tip with some polish remover cleans the messiness on the toe skin very nicely) and keep your feet fucking moisturized!
Alsox3: if your heels are cracked, get some fucking heel crack cream. It’s not that expensive. And if your polish is flaking off, take the fucking shit off and put a fresh coat on ffs.
that poor feckin donkey, heehaw…what a brilliant notion. let’s frighten some children, who actually thought the poor thing was a dog…grrr
jesus o.p., didn’t you ever hear the saying, hanging 10. grow the fuck up,and find something useful to bitch about.
oh, by the who, you must have a foot fetish to look at people’s feet and take intimate notice of their toe nails, weirdo.
Are you kidding me? How is me bitching about feet being immature? It’s a BITCH site… I can bitch about whatever I want to bitch about LS, and clearly people agree. And my man has a foot fetish, so yes I do take notice of people’s feet…
Ooh 11:11 Purple. 11:11!
Did you make a wish? Did you wish good feet for us all? … ’cause I did 😉
haha I did make a wish PD… good feet and shoes that fit for everyone!! Daily pedicures too!
I have extraordinarily dry skin, especially on my feet, and I really do try to keep my heels from cracking but it’s no use. But I’m fungus free, and there is no FUCKING way I’m going to wear shoes and socks in this heat just because your sensitive eyes have a problem with my feet. It’s not as if I’m asking you for a foot rub, so get over it.
ok now I feel bad about the feet thing… fair enough about the cracked heels… it’s mainly just the lon jagged toenails and the hanging over the sides that irritate me.
Good advice PK on all counts. My buddy likes to brag he’s a T&A man. Toes & Ankles.
Wooden file eh? Ill have to try that! I have dry feet, not cracked just dry, but otherwise nothing wrong with my cute little size 5 feet! I live for flip flops in the summer and I do agree with this bitch, its pretty gross.
Dannyco makes the greatest wooden foot file ever, and those PedEggs you can get at wal mart for like $14 are AMAZING… nothing has ever worked better!
I have an issue with shoes and sandals fitting me correctly. With flip-flops, if my feet don’t fall over the sides when standing, they’ll certainly fall of when I start walking, as they are too big. And if they’re somewhat small, then I get horrible blisters. Like, I’m known for always having fucked up feet. I can’t win :(. And I also have the pleasure of having a 90-year-old’s woman body, having a lot of problems and having a bad back is of them so I need special orthopedic insoles which requires me to get shoes a little too big so they can fit in them. But then my feet will fall out still when I walk, so I have to wear the same old dirty shoes that fit. SORRY everyone ;D.
i have 3 pairs of shoes, my feet are long/duck-shaped/monsters…but they are clean and trimmed. i cannot help the giant bulbous bunions…not my best feature*snort*
I have petite, smooth skinned feet, nice trim nails and slender ankles…and one foot now adorned with one of those emerging bulbous bunions. Old age has caught up with my feet no matter how fast I try to outrun it! LOL!
Jagged, dirty toenails (shovels) are disgusting. people who display them publicly make me shudder and retch at the same time!
it is essential to keep your nails trimmed, especially if you sleep with someone and that person has nightmares and jimmy legs^^^
ParasailingDonkey you have my sides hurting this bitch is way too funny
you’re right OP it’s summertime and while I can understand not everyone can afford a pedicure a little care and attention is needed. You take the time to shave your legs take the time to file your feet 🙂
what what? i’m supposed to shave my legs, well that’s news to me. is there a manual for us poor bitches…by jebus, next thing you’ll want us to pluck our eyebrows and wear make-up. fuck that shite
And don’t forget to polish your shoes. Scuffed and ratty shoes spoil the whole image.
Natural (not those processed oblong) pumice stones are perfect for keeping feet smooth and touchable. I swear by mine.
I have the dannyco foot file too, PurpleFire. I swear by it. I use it in the shower every second day — you use the rough black side to get the dead skin off, and then the brown side to smooth things down. And afterwards your feet feel heavinglyyy omg.
Babyshan: you’re right. A pair of toenail clippers are like 3-4 bucks and I paid like 7 bucks for my foot file. Foot cream at walmart is like under 10 bucks and all that stuff will last you for the entire season (if not longer).
…but, if you want the GOOD shit, go to fruits and passions: they have an amazing foot scrub and cream 🙂
My word…. 33 comments on friggin’ feet FFS.
estrogen levels are rising….
I like to wear sandals in summer cause I never get to see the tats in winter for more than the few mins it takes to sock ’em up.
purplefire, okay. you get off on disgusting toes and shit, fine. i’m just saying that there are many more very important things out there to bitch about. the dealers, the guns and shootings/missings,the beggers, the cops, just about anything fucking else. now if this bitch took place in a shoe store, that you know, sold shoes, and you were a fitter or something. then i can see it. but to go around just looking at people’s feet and toes in particular, well baby, that is just plain fucking weird, even for me. and trust me, i can get pretty fucking strange sometimes.
Jesus Op! I didn’t decide for my feet to overhang the sides of my shoes- I have extremely wide feet! What am I supposed to wear on my feet?? Flippers?? Crocks?? I’d rather wear flippers than Crocs! As a female, having wide feet sucks! I make them look as attractive as possible by taking good care of them…and I have good toes, but I’ve never been able to wear a gorgeous pair of high heels; I wouldn’t last a block walking. I do buy nice, feminine sandals that camoflage the wideness, but it’s hard, and if I’m lucky, my shoes will last a season of regular use. It really sucks.
Know what I do with my feet?
I pee on ’em.
Keeps the Athlete’s Foot away!
Women seem to have a problem with clothing sizes. Just because clothing can stretch, doesn’t mean camel toe is in fashion.
I would say men seem to have a problem with their clothing sizes too. If you bend over and your crack is showing, doesn’t mean your jeans come with a free ventilation function.
“Women seem to have a problem with clothing sizes” … men do too, especially those young hipster types. I do not need to see the outline of your bell end on the daily, thanks.
Feet should be kept hidden at ALL times, especially painted toenails, which look like shit no matter how neatly they are painted.
