78. Exactly right - nobody can pick out shoes for anyone else

... even with the best of intentions, and I'm not sure what Chump's intentions are.

I have very weirdly shaped feet, with bunions, abnormal arches and bent toes. Nobody else can buy shoes and hand them to me, expecting me to wear them just for their own enjoyment. It would be agony for me to wear them.
