AIBU to think this is disturbing?

AIBU to think it's disturbing that my mum relaxes by putting her little toe outside of her slippers? Only lighthearted but I still find it weird and she maintains it is completely normal. Who is being unreasonable?

YANBU!

Ficti · 17/11/2022 22:42

Are her other toes unnaturally long?

Sheilascarface · 17/11/2022 22:42

Is it like putting one foot out of the quilt Confused

nickievans1987 · 17/11/2022 22:44

Probably didn't make voting clear 😆 YABU: Seems completely normal to me, I like to put my toes in all sorts of bizarre places
YANBU: Yes, utterly disturbing, this should not be a thing

YABU! I do this... I agree it's a bit weird but it feels good :)

Fluffygoon · 17/11/2022 22:49

What’s more disturbing is she’s not wearing socks - I’ve got 3 pairs on and I’m still frozen. She must be rich and have the heating on 😉

Bintymcbintface · 17/11/2022 22:50

How's it not really uncomfortable having the slipper rubbing in between her toes like that?

nickievans1987 · 17/11/2022 22:53

@Bintymcbintface Well I completely agree but my mum maintains it is incredibly comfortable and I should try it 🤢

Ha ha ha that pic of her feet made me chuckle out loud. Strange woman 🤣😆😂

It looks like the leg of a baby elephant.

Notjustanymum · 17/11/2022 23:09

For those of us blessed with very wide feet, the action of separating the little toe from the rest is pure relief, let me tell you! Toes being cooped up in shoes so much that they are unable to separate naturally from those next to them means that sometimes the only way the skin between the pinkie and the 4th toe feels the air is to do this… I’m with your mama on this!

Caramelsmadfuzzytail · 17/11/2022 23:34

Nowt so strange as folk!😁
love the slippers.

SkylightSkylight · 17/11/2022 23:44

Personally I'd find it very uncomfortable. But whatever floats her <weird> boat 😂😂

LakieLady · 17/11/2022 23:45

I think it's rather endearing!

Disturbing. I can't even put my little toe on why it's so revolting, it just is.

There's some rude people in here 🤷‍♀️
