Your foot is disapproved of by the mentors, Moonbear.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I think evo went blind trying to approve it
 
Oh man you guys are mean.
 
And they haven't even seen the picture yet. :smile: Don't worry guys, I didn't use a flash, so you won't be completely blinded by it.
 
You've got a very social tiny toe, Moonbear!
It obviously want to be friends with its neighbour..

There is a category missing: my big toe sticks out AS far as the toe next to it (me): the normal category :-p
Yeah, I just wanted a choice of two, really. Like Siskel and Ebert (oops, Roeper). It's either 'toes up' or 'toes down'.
 
How do people with Sample A toes ever change direction while running? Maybe that's why Evo's so injury prone?

At least Moonbear doesn't have the same problems with her toes as this guy. Or, worse yet, these people. (My favorite was contestant 16). All of these people should improve the conditioning of their feet with http://www.comfortshoe.com/foot_exercises_.htm .

All of that and nothing to indicate which type is the 'normal', or most common type, and which is the 'freak of nature'. A random sampling of the 'ugly toes' contestants suggests Sample B might be more common, but maybe that just suggests a bias against Sample B toes. In fact, the more I think about it (and the more toecial slurs I hear), the more I'm convinced people with Sample B toes are an oppressed ethnic group deserving special hiring preferences for civil service jobs.

In my books, that qualifies as a small big toe / sample B freak of nature.

(And for future reference, that's not a thumbnail image, it's a toenail image... :smile: )

:smile: Yes, it is. That, or maybe it's camera shy and trying to hide under the toe next to it. :biggrin:

Hey now! I may be a freak of nature, but I'm definitely not some ordinary, sample B freak of nature! You're just jealous because you don't have a friendly little toe. :smile:

True, you are a most unusual freak of nature. I happen to know that that's a picture of your right foot.

And nobody ever believes me when I tell them I have two left feet... :rolleyes:

Those are some nice little piggies. Wait til I get my ugly hogs on here. (Nothing compared to BOB G's feet I swear.)
 
and why does huck know what Bob G's feet look like?
 
He posted them on a previous page :wink:
 
where?
i had to add this because my message is too short :rolleyes:
 
The hairy one? I thought that was a dog at first. Must be hard to wear shoes with all that hair.
 
i would vote, but one is larger than the others, and one is smaller. I'm not sure if that is normal, but i don't care. i broke all but 2 of my toes, so, as you can see, i really don't care about them, i never use em.

I used the information in your location to take satellite pictures of your feet. They look fine. You just need to clip your toenails.
 
:rolleyes:
that redefines the phrase "big brother is watching"

Okay, Huck sent me a picture of his foot to post here. So, here you go.

He wasn't kidding when he said he had a flipper for a foot! :biggrin:

Okay, here's the real picture attached. :shy:

Though, he sure does have a strange growth on the top of his foot...that copper-colored penny-shaped one. :smile:
 
that's pennyitis. you get it when you act like a cheap...uhh...person. :biggrin: :rolleyes:
 
That is a quarter actually. I put it in for scale. I have problems finding shoes wide enough to fit my feet comfortably. And I'm not doing my foot aerobics in that picture. I promise that my feet are nearly prehensile.
 
Even in the big version I have, I thought it was a penny. :smile: I didn't look closely, but it seemed to be copper colored, not silver-colored.
