My feet stink

Jeez it's hot

[pmac]

33 degrees Celsius.

Air conditioning is out of order. Just peeled off my sandals. "Pleasant" is not a word I would use to describe the odor.

Does Dr. Scholl's have an affiliate program?

Phew..........

It's been creeping around the 40s where I am, glad you don't live near me....... LOL
Seriously, I'm told leather sandals are best, as opposed to synthetic sandals.
Me I get problems after about 4 weeks of wearing whatever sandal.
I'm currently seen wearing cowboy boots. They have the best seal from foot to the outside world.......

Yeah, it's kind of like a train wreck... you don't want to look, but you can't help yourself. :)

Hold it.
What gives?
Seems like some of these Foo things turn out to be a male subject or male problem.
I wear sandals 365 days, and change them from time to time. Put them to sun for days.
I try socks and change them daily, and all would be well.
Then when I don’t wear the socks all of a sudden they begin to smell.
Hell, I wash I change but yet the smell will pop up from time to time.
What gives?

Is this a male thing or are women better hygienically orientated than men?
Or are women afraid to fess up?

Lord help me I am very aware of the SMELL. :-(

I wish it was like that here. I've just had to spend 10 minutes getting the ice off my car windscreen so that I could see enough to drive to the office. Roll on summer.

I think that might have something to do with the ratio of male to female members of WebmasterWorld. (Has that been addressed in a thread? Probably. When I get bored I'll look it up.)
I was bored yesterday (actually I was so angry I couldn't get any work done, which is actually more conducive to idle-time activity) so I read through the Foo Library, figuring it'd be relatively lighthearted or at least distracting. The shaving thread was hysterical. And about 99.3% male. It didn't even occur to anyone how male-dominated it was until about four pages in when someone said "I prefer Gilette for my bikini line" or something to that effect....
Hysterical. Once again, Foo has saved me from jailtime for homocide.

As for whether feet-smell is a uniquely male problem, it's not. Women are stinky animals too. But we tend to be less stinky than men because 1) we generally have less hair (hair traps odor), 2) we generally produce less sweat, and have fewer smell-producing hormones in ours, and 3) we're heavily conditioned to wash more often. When women smell really bad (and by that I mean no access to hygeine whatsoever, generally when homeless or similar) they smell way way worse than men who smell bad, but you're not going to find that kind of thing in normal living conditions.
My boyfriend's feet smell far more than mine do. He's just smellier. I don't produce that much odor. And I wear sneakers and socks far less often.

It wasn't locked Bill. It was forcibly terminated. Tragic, really.

...locked...terminated...
All I can say is that either way it renews my faith in the powers-that-be at WebmasterWorld just knowing that puppy can't be opened again :)
