Seriously, I hate those fucking things. They’re hot, uncomfortable, they get wet, stay wet for at least 24 hours, and they just end up smelling. Feet only smell because we cram them into socks and shoes for extended periods of the day. In the summer I’ll go weeks without shoes if I don’t need to work. Give it a week and it doesn’t even hurt to walk down the sidewalk. That "No shirt, no shoes, no service" rule is bullshit. I can understand with no shirt because people can be fat, nasty, and have offensive tattoos, but big fucking deal if you can see someones feet. Socks and shoes just retain dirt, moisture, and dog shit. Your skin is waterproof and very easy to clean. In the summer when its hot, your feet sweat and stink like hell but when you don’t wear shoes or socks you get a nice breeze. I understand we still need them to work and in the winter but why fuck with them when they aren’t necessary? It’s just another expense. If you think your going to step on something sharp and cut yourself, look where your fucking walking. If you can’t see glass on the sidewalk then you shouldn’t be out on the street without your seeing eye dog.

I actually agree!
And yeah, in the summer I go weeks with no shoes too, same with a shirt. Why do something you have no need for, right?
And I like the feel of grass, and the ground and stuff on my toes.

And this matters how? Unless you step on a needle that happened to have been used by someone with aids...
For aids to transfer, there has to have been someone else’s fluid transfered into you. Even if someone bled onto the ground or sidewalk and you stepped on it, you still wouldn’t get aids. It has to get into you.
For your sewing needle to give you aids, they would have had to first get some of their body fluid onto it (???).
You aren’t going to get aids from walking barefoot, or at least not likely.

So wear thongs and be done with it. And no, I’m not talking about underpants thongs. I’m talking about these thongs:

Yeah it’s possible, and happens, but the odds...I mean, driving is probably more dangerous. Watch where you friggin’ walk, that should pretty much deplete the odds entirely.

I usually walk around barefoot in the summer. That is kind of out of the question when it is -40 degrees Celsius outside though.

Yeah it is, it would have to be. Wouldn’t swimming be an issue if it wasn’t waterproof?
Our skin has evolved to keep bacteria and foreign objects out of the body. Otherwise we would get random infections all the time, wouldn’t we?

That’s why they invented things called sandals, Slash.
But no, I do see your point, and it’s pretty valid. I hate wearing shoes as well, but I hate wear sandals in the Summer too, so I try to wear my shoes as little as possible in the summer.
