(Dirty Bird) Update: My foot doesn’t smell as bad as it looks

My big toe doesn’t add to any sort of stench, so stop getting grossed out and claiming my feet stink

People tell me my feet are disgusting, and those people are all wrong. My feet may look disgusting, but they are in fact normal feet, and everyone needs to get over it.

I understand that my toenail is black from dried blood under my big toe and my other toenails look more shriveled than the average toenail.

I’ve even started to embrace my black toenail — it stands out and I like it.

If you take a closer look, there is a crease in the middle of my big black toenail where that sucker is gonna come loose. It’s only a matter of time.

Last year, it came off just putting on jeans in the morning. Came right off when the nail hit the crease, who would’ve thought?

In terms of stench, my big toe doesn’t contribute to any sort of feet smell AT ALL. My feet do not smell any more than the next person.

I’m a relatively hairy individual, but nothing out of control when it comes to body odor, which includes my feet.

Like anyone else, after a long day walking across campus, of course my feet are going to smell a little. However, it isn’t that bad.

None of my roommates have ever complained about my foot stench, yet EVERYONE seems to have a problem with what my feet look like.

They’re my feet, it’s not like I’m putting them in your oatmeal or anything. I’ve been to the podiatrist before, stop acting like you know what’s best for me.
