Hiya all, wanted to share a PSA which has leaked into my art career.

So I help duties at a feet therapy place, mkay?

And I noticed that the phrase "pedo" has become slang for someone who works at such a place, both because we get a lot of bilingual people (it's the word for "feet" in some languages) and because it's in the job name.

In fact, this is the most common and even normal/predominant usage of the word now, I can bet you a million dollars I've never witnessed anyone be called this and have it mean anything else; to this end, may I ask you to not make it so easy to confuse it with the more imaginary sense of the word, for a lack of a better way to say it?

If you or a loved one (this is my aunt's job I often help at) is called this (or even unrelated terms with the phrase inside the term), rest assured they think you're a foot specialist, or they might think you're yours truly, pictured as such.

Additionally/alternatively, maybe what you see right now is the imprint of a certain other person if you ask a certain person (everything mentioned is a relieving lesson I learned the hard way, please don't drag innocent people into stupid things because of peoples' lack of restraint) \s
