You must have a huge foot. How do you get along with finding the right size?

In the darkness under the moon he plots
In the silence of the night he kills.

I didnt know pants size was enough to determine
rather or not someone is overweight/obese
that would be like me saying anyone smaller than a size 3
is underweight =/

Nobody specified the unit in which we were measuring the pants... I was simply sticking up for the OP, because you come off like a real douche bag.
He did come off as a douche bag
and he probably doesnt even know what overweight means

Boinky, instead of posting 4 posts in a row (multi-posting), please edit your last post and add on.

I have two feet ;-) And at a size 8.5 US, I don't consider my feet to be that large, especially for my height- they are pretty average where I come from. Some shops in Tokyo these days do carry an 8.5 (Japanese 25.5), as Japanese girls are getting taller and there is starting to be more demand. I also buy shoes when I go overseas, so I don't go barefoot.
