I'm outraged! That lumber supplier clearly plagiarized the title of my self-published autobiography!

Just one up them and everything will be solved!

Okay you need to calm down

This is absurd. King Henry I didn’t paint his toenails.

I appreciate a good historical joke.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Me too but I lack knowledge in history. Care to explain it to me?

The legend is that a foot is actually based of the length of King Henry I's foot. "Imagine two neighbouring farmers, one buying a field from another, one with huge feet, one with tiny. Each measures the field in feet, but one says the footage is less because he’s got a bigger footprint, and therefore he argues a lower price. It’s a recipe for a mighty mediaeval punchup. So Henry proffered his own royal foot, it’s said. Thus, a foot became 12 inches."

You know what they say about foot size.

(You're welcome in advance, whoever I set this up for.)

It determines how easy it is for you to find fitting shoes

Sure! I'll need to wear the right shoes to make sure each step equals a foot though.

The one that's going to slowly escalate towards incredible pleasure is clearly superior.

spoilerThere's very little as satisfying as slipping into a newly tailored suit and looking amazing. Plus it's nice to be cared for by an attentive professional like a tailor perfecting your clothing. No kink-shaming here, but I'll pass on getting stepped on.
