I'm reading a defense medical expert's report on a plaintiff in a personal injury case - normally, the doctors will give you a quick run-down of the plaintiff's weight, height and general physical appearance ("appropriately dressed," "appropriate reactions to social advances" and that kind of thing) before getting down the nitty-gritty of Babinski-reflex responses and range of motion. It's pretty boring, since they all generally say the same thing - "Plaintiff weighs 150 pounds, stands 5'5" tall and was appropriately dressed.")
Except this guy. This guy feels it is essential to note (on a neck-injury claim, mind you) that the plaintiff was both well-dressed and had remembered to shave her toes this morning. (Literally. He actually wrote "the subject's toes were appropriately shaven." Is there such a thing as "inappropriately shaven"?) Creepy!
Haw!! That sounds so strange.
Maybe the doctor had a foot fetish? Or started out his career as a podiatrist?
