(a place for all things hilarious)

Well, today I was googling the best socks to wear with ballet flats (life is exciting sometimes), and I came across a youtube video in my google search results.  I was like, who would take a video of socks?  So of course I clicked on it.

The music? Almost 5,000 views!?  What is happening, youtubes?

I was so confused.  It was shortly thereafter that I discovered that it’s a sexual fetish video.  If you open the video from the youtube homepage, you’ll discover hundreds of related videos listed on the sides.  The numerous videos demonstrate that this genre of weirdness, aptly named shoeplay is large and well-frequented. (Insert dry-heaving and shuddering here).  I know people get off on weird stuff and hooray for them.  I also know that feet are this thing in the fetish community or whatever, but for a variety of reasons this is simply a little too strange to me.  

If I ever saw my feet on a hidden camera youtube video, I’d track down the user and shank his unmentionables with a grapefruit spoon.  Twice.

What is happening?  People watching shoes dangle and having secret hidden cameras under tables?  Screw your blood red moons, earthquakes, horses and what-not. This, I am sure, is the first sign of the apocalypse.
