    Shoe shops

    When will they realise that size 9 is actually quite popular and they should order their stock accordingly?
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

    I was thinking the same just the other day.

    "We don't have that in a size nine, sir. Would you like to try a size eight instead?"

    "OK, I'll just chop off my toes."

            I used be size 9, but found it hard to get shoes so I now bind my feet like 19th Chinese women. It hurts for the first few years as your metatarsals slowly deform, but now I have no problem fitting into a pair of size 4s.
