A foot callus sander?
How about a pimple vacuum!
I’m really not seeing what the problem is here. It does what it is designed to do. If you can’t handle a little skin, then the world is truly a disgusting place for you. You have my sympathy.
Actually, after reading amazon reviews, I don’t think it does. If you apply more than an extraordinarily light amount of pressure, the device stops completely. I could see a product like this being useful with a stronger motor, though. Like a ped-egg (which I love) without the need to use so much force. Unfortunately, it falls short.
In those videos, it looks like they let white glue dry on the models’ feet and that’s what was coming off in huge single-piece swaths. Dry skin doesn’t come off like that, it comes off in little flakes and chunks.
I think what people are reacting to is the fact that skin is coming OFF OF the foot in large quantities. Something that was like ‘yay, remove your skin with something that looks like a belt sander mated with a cheese grater!! :D’ would freak me out too. Which is why I am not even watching the damn thing.
Trust me, if ladies’ feet bothered me I would not (as a lady) go barefoot around the house all the time. I love my feet, I think they’re one of my best physical features(, no I’m not posting pictures,) and I would like the calluses on them to stay there so that I can walk around without it hurting.
I have one. It’s not underpowered, IMO. If you get one, be careful about using that filing disc, as it can be extremely effective. I got mine at Walgreen’s, by the way. Mostly I use the smoothing disc.
I go to a podiatrist about every two or three months, and he takes care of the worst of my calluses, and he uses a Dremel to do it. I just use this tool to take care of things in between appointments. I also had a really thick callus on one of my elbows, and this tool took care of it. It WILL draw blood if you aren’t careful with it.
I could swear that one late night commercial about menstrual pads that had the line “It’s like they become one with your underwear!” I could barely believe my ears, but I never saw the commercial air again and haven’t found it anywhere else either.
Thank you. I’d rather it be empathy but I’ll take what I can get. 
I have a foot fetish, and even I think it’s gross. Body droppings always are. And that’s why none of your other crap has the same problem. Bug parts are nowhere near as gross as something that came from another human being. Even those who like swallowing after blow jobs probably don’t want to deal with a sock full of semen.
Plus, let’s not forget how uncomfortable anything that sands off your skin actually can be. Just thinking about that part of it is enough to bother me.
As long as it’s only abrading the dead tissue, it’s actually kind of pleasant. If it hits live tissue, yeah, that’s uncomfortable, at the very least. But getting that dry, dead tissue off is a relief, because it usually itches like hell.
This. The rest of you guys are obviously too young to need this product, but many people do. Just wait.
I’d rather smell cat food than watch that commercial. Wonder if you could use it to grate parmesan cheese?
d:r
I don’t know about should, but when I was younger and growing rapidly, I’d have issues wit the skin on my feet drying out and cracking. The callussed, tough skin would indeed peel off in large sheets just like a snake.
Not only disgusting, but also cuts into the profits of your local fish spa (photo not safe for lunch). And won’t someone think of the guppies?
So would you recommend it? I might have to make a trip to Walgreen’s…
Sure, I recommend it, and I also recommend using it with caution. Especially that grating disc. I wish I’d had something like this when I was a sales clerk, and spent at least 8 hours a day on my feet. Man, I really had some serious calluses, with deep cracks in them.
Why do you hate love?
I don’t hate love in and of itself. I just hate biting down on a chunk of love in my fettucine Alfredo.
"Shut the front Door!" is more disgusting IMO. Last time my 11 year old grandson was here for a visit, we were watching tv when that commercial came on, and he looked at me and said, “I know what he’s really sayin’.”
Q
It’s gross, but I’m more bothered by the commercial for Kayak (WTF is Kayak, anyway? I don’t know and don’t really care, but I know for sure I’ll never buy anything from them) with the guy who dilates his eyes so he can see better. It’s not only visually disturbing, it doesn’t make any sense.
Ok, let me revise my OP: This very well may not be the most vile, disgusting commercial ever but it’s certainly up there. Definitely top five.
