Just because you're a slob at home do you have to be an inconsiderate slob in public

  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.

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

      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.

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

    Like the person sneaking photos of people in public to ridicule them anonymously on the Internet?

    What’s wrong with taking your shoes off before putting them up on the furniture? Seems the polite thing to do so you don’t get snow or mud or whatever other shit is on your shoes on the seat. It’s not like there is someone else using either of those seats opposite at the moment. Maybe you’re just feeling shame about your foot fetish? It’s okay to have a kink about feet, but non-consenting voyeurism is not okay.

  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.

  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 ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    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 on shoes most of the time gives them an aroma most people don’t like.

    source

    • einkorn@feddit.org ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ 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.

    totally true those people who booing at everything that doesnt fit into social norms someone made up for them probably think that they will never have health issues and bare feet

      Yeah, I should probably just cut my legs by like 20 centimetres, so I fit the body model the designers used. Shave off some width on the shoulders to so I can have more arm space as well.

      So you’ve never farted in a public chair? Or forgot to cover your sneeze? Both of those are objectively more gross and likely to get you sick, and spread germs than just feet.

    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.

  I’ve never understood this. I have a condition with my feet that means i pretty much walk on bruises everday of my life. In medieval days they flogged people’s feet to torture them with a condition I deal with every day.

  There are days I take off my shoes and sob.

  I would never do that. I keep my shoes on in public.

  The bottom of this person’s feet are not purple like mine are. What’s their excuse? Put your shoes back on.
