LOL!!! I hate when that happens, because in an average bus, my legs don't fit in behind the seat infront. That's the same in the movie theatre too. LOL

I trip over the ends of my jeans! In 8inch heels I'm still shorter than loads of my friends
tall, lanky people are attractive, but then I think lots of weirdos are attrative, like Ensign Kim, Or Doctor Bashir, or Dax...
I'm bi, if you haven't worked it out

Bah. Yes, we had a very bad experience with homosexuals on this site. Not a thing to go into. I wasnt around, but I heard all about it, from several different people. Oh well.

I like pasta. I mean shoes. I like shoes.

I bought a pair today in fact. No slip sole, for work!

Eeeew grease. I could never work with fast food, the smell makes me feel sick. I'll probably end up working in a herbal hippy remedies shop that sells sticks to suckers

I just stick to wrap 1. You know, since if I use more than one wrap, I would get in trouble for wasting them, and it wouldnt look right.

I was referring to wrapping speed, but that was a good comeback
Burgers are icky and taste like dead critters
spashed with sauce and given to smitters

Well that was random...

Bah, I ate a double cheeseburger today. Wasnt half bad. Its cool because I get half off food. And the food is so damned expensive, that half off isnt that bad, semi-reasonable.

Do people at work trip over your feet and land in the deep fat fryer or mincer? That would be funny!

I've got large feet. Over here I have lots of trouble finding shoes. Basketball shoes are easy to find in large sizes but not regular shoes. Anyway, my feet are:

31.5 centimeters
12.4 inches

My All Stars (made in the US) say:
13 Mens
13 UK
48 EUR
31.5 JPN

What a topic! I thought I was the one interested in female feet.

I'm 6 foot and a size 8 UK.

But I hate shoes, generally. Who wants to walk round in shoes all day?

I'm between 9-10 UK, which is about 11-12 US. I'm a girl. I cannot buy shoes I like, and live in mens trainers. I want a pair of high heels!

I'm 6'1", a dress size 8-12 UK (dunno what that is US, about 3-6? something like that ) and an inside leg measurement of 36". That's long

Damn you Link!!! Nice though. Having big feet kinda sucks, but everyone is amazed when you tell them your shoe size! Its fun. The biggest thing is, when I go to the shoe store, there are like 5 pairs of shoes to choose from. Literally.


Not really. I can't go into a shoe store to get a pair anymore. I walk in and ask and they look at me with this dumbfounded look. Anyway most stores only carry up to size 15. There are only 2, yes ONLY 2, places where I can get shoes my size. One is an online store called Eastbay, it's a sporting goods/shoe e-shop. the other is in New York called Globe Shoes, which carries up to size 18.

Now both of these places have a cr*p sellection when it comes to shoes, and they're damn expensive too. on sale, shoes my size are around $80-$120. and those are on SALE! a decent pair of Nikes cost me around $180 base.

Though I will have to admit, it is always fun when people look down at my feet, because I love it when their eyes widen as I tell them the size. I've had guys in College bow down to me before, it was a joke, but It is funny.

Wow seven of nine, you are like a pole! It must be a night mare getting stuff to fit. Now I am imagining a a line with a lump in the middle representing you when you were pregnant with Sammie (I know all about you... I know where you sleep... in your bed!).
Kinda like Mr Skinny in the Mr Man books when he visits Mr Greedy and gets a tummy... wasted childhood.
Shoe companies in England are so dumb. They seem to make every style in Size 4 (no body except lil old ladies), but not enough in sizes 6 - 10... you could sew yourself a pair of mocasans and decorate then with flower if you want summat feminin, or contact model agencies, they cater for tall people with big feet.
Boys with big feet... have big shoes

I know! The stores only carry up to 15 anymore. But I found a few stores. There is one that has a big feet rack, where they throw everything over 13. They have 1 pair of 22 shoes!
