Quentin Tarantino, who wrote a character that had to suck tequila off of Salma Hayek's toes into From Dusk Til Dawn, then cast himself in that role.

What, can't a guy have a hobby?

I'm not even into feet in the slightest, and that still sounds like a great time to me.

I'm actively anti-feet and I'd happily package and market Salma Hayek's toe cheese.

Did I do good?

hOrni@lemmy.world · 26 pts · 294d (5 replies)

What about the scene in "From Dusk Till Dawn" where Salma Hayek literally puts her toes in his mouth.

This is disturbing but I can’t look away

It's okay, I literally saved it to my phone. And that shit is as good as permanent. What were we talking about?

vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 293d

The circumstances of the universe and it's existence in many ways lead to this image being created. Aeons passed, planets died, and earth had uncountable creature live and die apon it's surface. All of this concurred and lead to the inextricable creation of this image via cause and effect from the time of the big bang, and yet I fucking hate it.

So are those considered "good feet," I guess? Or just any old feet will do?

dustyData@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 294d

They are always the feet of borderline too young or really hot women. Any female feet will do in pinch.

This is how you get Morton's neuroma. Trust me, you don't want it. Wear proper shoes with space for your toes.

Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 294d (2 replies)

But 4 of 5 photos aren't wearing shoes.

chellomere@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 293d (1 reply)

No but they all show evidence of tight footwear.

ivanafterall@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 293d

So I guess I wore too-small shoes my entire life or...? I GET IT, I WAS POOR! No need to turn every Lemmy thread against me.

Morton’s neuroma

So help me God, if you diagnose me via a Lemmy thread...

chellomere@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 293d (2 replies)

Morton's neuroma is characterized by pain between a pair of toes, between the "knuckles", and a painful "click" there in every step. The nerve has been squeezed and has swollen, which is called a neuroma. It's caused by wearing shoes that aren't wide enough. It disproportionately more often affects women as they tend to have tighter footwear but of course can affect men too, especially for those that have wide feet. 99% of modern shoes "bunch up" the toes and can cause this.

If you have these symptoms, you should start wearing shoes with wide toe boxes immediately to not make it worse, and also consider wearing toe separators. If it's still not too bad, this can make the symptoms go away. This helped for me but I never came back to normal. I'm currently recovering from surgery to have this fixed, where they simply cut off this nerve.

Imadethis@lemmynsfw.com · 1 pts · 292d (1 reply)

Damn, I'm glad you're out here spreading the good word. I literally wear holes in the sides of my shoes from the outside toes rubbing against the toe box sides. I treasure the rare shoe that I find that doesn't ruin my day with pinching (because pinching should be enjoyable, goddamnit!), and am pissed off that I never seem to be able to find those shoes again (how many fucking different shoes do we need, and why do they have to change every year, goddamnit!).

chellomere@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 292d

I feel your pain there, my favorite shoes have also changed in a way that makes me unable to wear them. Unfortunately it's generally very hard to find shoes that aren't shaped to pinch the toes. Look into the following brands:

  • Lems (Primal Zen is especially good as a walking shoe)
  • Joe Nimble (I have the Wandertoes boots, perfect for winter and rainy conditions)
  • Altra (with the "original" toe box, for example Lone Peak and Escalante, although sadly for me while Escalante 2.5 has been a dream and enabled me to walk and run again, sadly Escalante 4.0 does not work for me)
  • Topo - I've tested a model I don't remember the name of and if the surgery doesn't fix it for me (this is the second surgery I go through it...) I might get a pair for running, they are ok

These brands all offer shoes that have very wide toe boxes but where the rest of the shoe is normal width.

I've generally been able to do most activities despite this condition, but there's always a worry about not finding shoes that work for me. My two pairs of Escalante 2.5 are falling apart, and I'm not sure what to replace them with when they finally break. Also I couldn't imagine ice skating or skiing with this condition, so I always feel a bit limited. This is why I chose to go through the surgery again with the hope that this time it will fix it, to hopefully at least get some additional flexibility in what footwear I can wear.

Also interesting that the bottom four are all misfigured from wearing shoes that were too small.

There are basically only 3 constants in a Tarantino movie:

  • Feet

  • Liberal use of the N word

  • Samuel L Jackson

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 293d (2 replies)

Reservoir Dogs, Death Proof and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood didn't have Samuel L. Jackson.

Buddahriffic@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 292d

Also Kill Bill Vol. 1 didn't have him. But Vol. 2 does.

I mean, yes, but the last points kind of belong together ¯_(ツ)_/¯

SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 294d (1 reply)

Exactly how big are this kingdom's feet? I didn't know that kingdoms even had feet, let alone ones that could contain, apparently, all the single ladies.

psx_crab@lemmy.zip · 10 pts · 294d

This is the time when they use feet and not cm, so the kingdom will be, idk, 1600 square feet considering how quick they look through the kingdom and there's no other woman that has the same foot size as Cindy, so maybe it's a small kingdom with 20 woman.

In the original, it was a fur slipper, and the prince went around the nation kneeling down in front of women to check if the fur slipper fit.

Yes, the "fur slipper" was slang for exactly what you think.

FooBarrington@lemmy.world · 39 pts · 294d (1 reply)

Wait, what's the implication regarding "fur slipper"? Did Cinderella lose her vagina, and all the women had to try it on...?

Did ChatGPT told you that one?

sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 293d

The story has been around for centuries. There is no known "original."
