This is outrageous and unacceptable. Who the heck wears a beanie indoors?!? Winter hats come off when you go inside, this is just basic human decency.

[–] Harvey656@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I wear a beanie at all times, especially indoors. And for reference, basic human decency is for the birds!

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago

Umm, since when?

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 0 points 2 hours ago

I wonder if footshaming and footfetishism are two sides of the same coin?

[–] daepicgamerbro69@lemmy.world 57 points 12 hours ago

i see right through your bullshit excuse to take candid feet picture you perv

[–] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 43 points 13 hours ago (5 children)

Gotta sit next to the feet and start licking your lips. Look em dead in the eyes and go, "those piggies look soooo suckable."

See how quickly they react. Worst case scenario, they're a freak AND a slob.

[–] Harvey656@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Sounds like the best case scenario to me. ;)

The way Jason’s head slides across Tarantino’s shoulder - smoooooooooth.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

they’re a freak AND a slob.

you're riding public transit and expecting people not to be a little freaky?

[–] Mr_Blott@feddit.uk 8 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Yes

  • The vast, vast majority of civilised people
[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world -2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

the vast, vast majority of civilized people either never take public transit or are constantly disappointed.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

The vast majority of civilized people don't live in the USA and their public transit isn't always shit.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world -1 points 4 hours ago

right there are no freaks in any other country's public transit. that's why they had to implement women's only cars.

I don't take offense to this.

[–] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Agree. I’d be more grossed out with just a toddler sitting there touching their face and everything around them.

[–] bss03@infosec.pub 2 points 2 hours ago

Agreed. Feet look clean and healthy, and if they were removed from shoes, I can guarantee they have less foreign matter on them then the shoes they were removed from, so I'd prefer them on the seat cushion rather than the shoes. If they were removed from shoes, they might be sweater and have more bodily products in general than the shoes they were removed from, but I doubt the seats on public transit are going to long avoid sweat and skin.

Some people's insistence on covering all body parts at all times in public makes no sense to me.

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 77 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

I'm always amazed how some people have no self awareness. They have no concerns for others. And yet if you acted like they did and it affected them they would be so pissed.

[–] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 0 points 2 hours ago

They had the thought to take off their shoes as to not get ground dirt on the seat.

[–] NoForwardslashS@sopuli.xyz 36 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Just sit in the seat next to their feet and put your bare feet in their lap.

[–] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 26 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

I'd just sneeze on their feet making sure they could feel the particles of spit landing on their toes. That'll hopefully gross them out and force them to put their shoes on.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 16 points 14 hours ago (3 children)

They'd probably like it, or at least enjoy your having started the fight they were spoiling for.

They probably do the steve jobs and stick their feet in the toilet as soon as they get to work

At least they took of their shoes. Some people don't even do that

[–] GiddyGap@lemm.ee 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I would have preferred shoes on in this situation. Ideally, keep your shoes on and feet on the floor.

the shoes are on the floor

[–] einkorn@feddit.org 25 points 15 hours ago (16 children)

TBF, I keep the socks on, but other than that: If no one else needs the space or sits next to me? Why not?

I'm a big guy, so anytime I use public transport either my back hurts because the top edge of the back rest pushes into my lower back, my knees hurt because the space between seat rows are too small or both at the same time. So let me at least stretch my legs when it doesn't inconvenience anyone. Shoes off, socks on.

To anyone saying "Booooh! Unhygienic!": I dare you to tap hard on the cushions a couple of times. For even more shock effect, do it when you are the first passenger of the day.

[–] sir_pronoun@lemmy.world 17 points 15 hours ago (9 children)

Totally agree with you, what's the big deal? Those public seats are disgusting and absolutely rife with bacteria, there are studies on that. Some reasonably fresh socks (or bare feet) absolutely will not matter there. If anything, your feet will get dirty because somebody's feces and urine are already on that seat. (they really are)

And for the smell: alright, if there are a lot of people and your feet stink, that's a no. But the smell usually isn't great in public transport anyways.

Why not? Mostly smell for me. Because feet being imprisoned in shoes most of the time gives them an aroma most people don't like.

[–] einkorn@feddit.org 12 points 13 hours ago

It's interesting to me that so many people assume by default that others have smelly feet. I guess we have all met the stereotypical sweaty guy at the local nerd convention. But in general, if your body produces a notable bad smell when you are not exercising and despite basic hygiene, there is probably something wrong.
