I'm that guy that has the fucked up toe, AMA
My short bio: So yeah, I was born with this mutation called Macrodactyly which means that I have a big ass toe... That's pretty much it.

Have you considered ballet? I bet you could do a pretty fucking boss pirouette
TheHoodRat158 karma
Have you ever gotten freaky with that thing?
edit: my boss is making me ask this... for science
paulatina8152 karma
Have you ever used it for like, maybe go "hey kids, you want to see what will happen if you don't eat your vegetables?" or something like that?

I once convinced a few of my friends that I dropped a 30 pound weight on it and that it'll be that swollen for the rest of my life
warriorservant100 karma
I haven't gotten any corrective surgery for it yet, but I hope to sometime in the near future. For shoes I just get the size of the bigger foot and wear that on both feet.

Hey OP, if your shoe size is 1.5 sizes different or larger you can get split sizes at Nordstrom for no extra charge. I used to work there and not many people knew about it.
You probably already know this, but if you want to make your shoe fit better on your smaller foot you can add extra insoles and a tongue pad. A tongue pad is a piece of felt that goes on the tongue of your shoe and it will push your foot backwards so your heel sits snugly in the back of the shoe. If you need any shoe advice send me a message.

Probably be easier and less hassle if you just wear flip flops. I don't think anybody will notice
warriorservant47 karma
Nah, I've gone to the beach without any type of footwear before. A lot of people ask about it and stuff, and it's just really awkward for me

Have you ever considered dominating the hyper competitive world of toe wrestling? You could go by Tou Ferrigno or Ronnie Toeman
warriorservant63 karma
In honor of the name of the mutation, I think I'd go with "Toeny Macro"
Capricious_Unicorn53 karma
You know, there's a whole large group of people who really really (and I mean really) enjoy... feet.
Has OP ever thought to profit from giant toe?
warriorservant54 karma
I mean, if I was really on tough times, I don't think I'd be against it.

Has toe ever been a deal breaker? You know...for a sexual encounter?
warriorservant37 karma
It's fine when I'm walking, but when I run for long periods it starts to get a bit sore.

In a scale of 1 to 10 how many toe jokes do you suffer from in a daily routine?
warriorservant50 karma
0, but it was a pleasant surprise to receive as many puns as I did when I posted it
octabrain9 karma
does that toe have the same muscle function as the other toes? i guess i'm asking if you can straighten it out and curl it up.

So .. How do you proceed while buying a new pair of shoes? Do you get one size for your right foot and another for the left or you just poke a hole in the left one?
warriorservant10 karma
I just buy the shoe size that fits the left foot and wear it on both of my feet. Finding shoes that wide can really be a bitch sometimes.
TwoSonasOneCup3 karma
Do you get custom made shoes, or sandals all the way, are socks avoided like the plague and finally how much control do you have over it?
warriorservant10 karma
Nope, just regular shoes
I wear socks
I have a decent amount of control over it, it's just slightly difficult to move since it has a lot of fat on it
alucard3332 karma
How comfortable/uncomfortable are shoes for you and does it cause pain around your leg? Also does it hinder your movement much?
warriorservant2 karma
Shoes tend to fit tight on my foot, so I have to break them in for a day or 2 for them to be comfortable. It doesn't really cause much pain outside of that, and it doesn't really hinder any movement
t--1 karma
do you feel like you have any advantages over others with that thing?
has it stopped you from getting laid and passing on that gene to your kids?
warriorservant2 karma
Nah, it's never really been a turn-off for an SO, and it also isn't hereditary
iwantartmoney360 karma
you ever stub that sumbitch?
