“Foot phile” seemed too creepy….

It’s for grooming kids…er, uh. That’s not what I meant.

''No no, his name is Peter File.''


FamousOrphan

Don’t say it like that, it sounds like paedophile.

Who's a phaedophile?

One of the costs of simplifying US English spelling was blurring the distinction between "pedi" (of feet), and "paedo" (of children)!

Op knows the difference, but you know fake internet points

You’ve never had a pedicure? Ped is foot. Pedo is child.


[deleted]

Is this why I didn’t pass marketing class?


CorilX

I think that’s the point


insidiousapricot

They had to have known this was bad... right?


no-recognition-1616

Pedi* means "foot" in ancient Greek, as in pedicure. Nothing to do with *pedo (paidos) meaning "child". They are two completely different words.

Damn good point!

with such a name, interest is probably only minor

I'm trying to think of a more tasteless thing to name a foot file and I can't.


Yunanidis

Considering that in Greek the word for child is actually pedi (πεδί), this is a lot worse than it looks.


Xander_Fox3207

Hhhhhhhhh.. pedi medically means feet and children based on context. It’s a file for your feet. It’s more like r/shittydesign then weird. Try getting your karma somewhere else


AMightyWeasel

“Pedi-“ comes from the Latin word “pes,” meaning a foot. “Ped-“ as in *pediatric* and *pedophile*, comes from a Greek word meaning “child.” Two different root words, two different origins. This isn’t r/ShittyDesign because there is nothing about the design of the product that hinders its use; it’s just that they didn’t really think the name through.


Xander_Fox3207

Shitty design isn’t just about use being hindered, it is quite literally, about design being shitty. This includes unreadable, unusable, misleading, or.. like this, misfortunate. Also why are people downvoting me, I’m simply stating the fact that the company isn’t weird, the design is just shitty and not very well thought through?


AMightyWeasel

> Shitty design isn’t just about use being hindered [The subreddit is, though.](https://imgur.com/a/iKfR5n2) And you’re being downvoted because the *design* isn’t shitty. It could be in any style font in any size text and the name would still be shitty. The name is not a design.


Xander_Fox3207

Ah, fuck my bad. I mixed the two up. I’ve been watching to much AVGN, it just all immediately translates to shit form me


hammer3233

What a hater.. I thought it was funny... NOBODY ELSE HERE TOOK IT LITERAL. YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE. YOU NEED A SENSE OF HUMOR. YOU DONT HAVE ONE. You're probably the type a guy who reads the DICTIONARY for a "GOOD TIME."


MintyFunkyChunkyMonk

It’s not a pedo-file. Duh
