What Up With That: Easy Feet

10.17.2010

I've been MIA this weekend due to a nasty bought with asthma and allergies. I've been in bed watching some pretty boss Lifetime movies, yesterday's days theme was troubled teenagers trying to make it on their own (Homeless To Harvard, and Gracie's Choice.)  This morning one of my all time favorite movies is on, "A Matter Of Justice" starring Patty Duke, the greatest made-for-tv-movie actress ever! (Sorry Meredith Baxter)


This movie is based on the true story (aren't they all)  of a murdered Marine and his mother's battle to seek custody of his daughter and the conviction of his hoochie gold-digging wife. 4 hours of awesomeness if you ask me.

During a commercial break my mess was blown out by a commercial for a new product called Easy Feet. The ad starts by asking how one can adequately wash one's feet in the shower without injury.  Well not to be a smart ass but I've been doing it for 30 years without having an episode but maybe I'm in the minority. What I witnessed after that was sheer foolishness and became the inspiration for my very first "What Up With That" post. WUWT will focus on topics that make challenge our sense of logic and our viewpoints. Mostly, it's an opportunity to sing the theme song to my favorite SNL skit.



Ok back to Easy Feet. This ish is straight up disturbing. Seriously watch this video and tell me something isn't  wrong with our society when we come to the point we can't be bothered with bending over to wash our own feet! Creepiest part ever comes at the end with the two kids in the tub grinding their feet against the wall. See it for yourself.




I hope I'm not alone here, does anyone else find this gross, and unecessary? Please let me know if you feel the same way. When you saw this video did it make you say "What up with that?"

OMG! Really? Why don't we completely cover the shower walls and floors with bristles so we don't have to move our arms at all?

That is too funny, but with my double knee replacement it might help me, lol!

I don't mind the kids because everything's a fun toy to them anyway. It's the grown ups, with their hairy legs, weird wiggly toes and French Manicured toes sliding in and out of the shoe. My tummy gets queasy, and I don't know why!
