I guess we'll make fun of it.

Lots of things to criticize about this miserable person. There was a time when decent people thought better than to go after this sort of thing.

I hope none of our candidates ever has a "creepy genetic defect". Because then we'll get all pissed off about people doing this.

Genetic defects are okay. Just not the "creepy" ones. The "creepy genetic defects" are gross.

I forgot.

As long as someone is criticizing someone else's physical or other innate characteristics, they become fair game so we can do the same thing.

Got it. Sorry.

Can we also make inherently sexist comments about her, or is that off limits for some reason. Like, are the blonde jokes okay as long as it is her? Or is it "just feet, not hair"?

I admit I'm not good at keeping track of the etiquette on this stuff.

There's a lot to complain about her, but not this.

into those "perfect" little size fives, no matter how much it mangles their toes.

One more thing that went out with the 'Sixties, for those who embraced change.

One was a 9, the other a 10.

So, guess what size shoes she bought?

The 9. She tortured her size 10 foot.
