You Know You're Old When...

From what I gather, just foot odor for now...

I think it's just from being on your feet so much working. I used to be on my feet all the time doing retail after classes until 10:00 PM. I pulled all the tendons in my heels and now I can't do that kinda crap anymore.

From wearing high heels or flats?

But for odor try putting powder in your shoes, something like Shower-to-Shower. It's cheaper and smells better than baby powder or shoe powder. I used to do that. It kinda soaks up sweat too, not to sound gross. Use lotion or cocoa butter on your feet at night because if the powder works it might dry your feet out. It's good to care about your feet, it's not all :gay:

Good advice. :)

Believe it or not, just plain ol' sneakers. :shamefulcry: I would go to school around 9 or 10 am until about 2 or 3 pm, then I'd go to work around 4-10 pm. That entire night I'd be on my feet, and I worked about 5 days per week. I got to the point where my feet would hurt so bad I'd get a short break and sit. Then, I'd get up and barely be able to put any weight on my feet. I went to a foot doctor and he told me I had tight tendons in my feet and I was gonna blow them out if I kept it up. I hated my job anyway and soon quit once I found another one, which was mostly a sit-down job :woot: The foot doctor told me to do these exercises with a hand towel under my feet and I'd have to bend and pull them to stretch the tendons some more so I wouldn't blow them out. It wasn't helping and I got lazy and stopped doing it.

I'm fine now even though I run around all day. I'm not just STANDING there.

Wow, just from sneakers.

I guess that's another reason to exercise, I suppose. ;)

That's good. :)

^Actually it was just because I was defective :hehe:

My feet smell no matter what I do. I could be barefoot in sandals with all the air blowing between my toes and at the end of the day, they would stick like nobody's business.

i just thank goodness my feet aren't super hairy. i've seen some guys who need a lawnmower to care for their feet.

Believe me, when my feet turn on the smelly burners, I'd prevent myself from entering the home.

So your wife walks around the house with a clothespin on her nose?

Or a gas mask? :hehe:

Ugh :bleh: That's when people should just get waxed. Same with back hair. Gyah. Unless they and their loved ones are okay with it. For example, I can't imagine the general population being hot and bothered by someone as hairy as Robin Williams or Dan Aykroyd. If you can't see your skin through it, then there's too much :doh:

/me shudders

i see. i thought we were going back to plucking again.

'dude, what are you doing??'

'um, plucking the hairs in between my toes'

'not with the same tweezers that i use to pluck my eyebrows!!!'


:hehe:

I'm going to do my Monty Python Sgt. Major impression to put a stop to this discussion about feet, it's grossing me out!
