I need help on tips to prevent chafing oh jesus. I already looked up a couple pages and it seemed to point to spandex shorts and super hydration. I need more info arrrrgg the paaiiin.
Make the searing pain in my groin stop. 
It's not something people hear about.
Have two layers of clothing (hence the spandex recommendation) so they rub against each other rather than your legs. Breathable would definitely be good. Try boxer-briefs in cotton.
Um, good luck.

Baby powder, and switch to spandex or boxer briefs.
But yeah, I'll look into getting some spandex shorts or these "boxer briefs" you speak of. What like...are they? I wear boxer shorts atm, but the crotch hangs down so low that my fatty inner thighs still rub up against each other.
You would think that these many many years of DDR would make me immune to feet blisters and the like, but cement and concrete apparantly own me a zillion ways sideways.
I'm thinking I should just like...wear a lot of socks for the moment, but is there like a specific foot pad or something that I can shove in my shoes to help? I have gym shoes and work boots.

I have worn boots for the last few years. I look for ankle support over any sort of cushioning. Sore ankels suck more than just sore feet. If you have work boots just make sure you lace them down tight and wear socks that go beyond the boot top to wick out moisture. Helps keep the foot funk down.

Regular tennis shoes should be enough, but if your feet are still suffering you can buy extra pads for your shoes, Dr Schoels (sp?) is a good brand, you can pick them up at any shoe store for minimal cost.
As far as socks...I don't know the status of your wardrobe, but some people wear broken down socks until they have holes everywhere, wouldnt hurt to run out and buy a 6 pack of new ones if you haven't already.
As for the foot wear, go into a shoe store, and say "Hey, I'm on my feet walking around all day, I need a super comfortably shoe". Worked for me. They pointed me to some nice Nike Airs, with the awesome air cusiony sole. Best damned shoes I've ever had for walking. I have flat feet(well, an archless arch), and I don't even need to use an arch support/extra cusion in them, that's how fucking comfortable they are.
If you get blisters, use moleskin. Do NOT pop them! Do not completely cover the blister either, instead make a lil donut around them with the moleskin :3
For awsome shoe inserts, get Dr Scholls Gel Sport. I went to jumpschool with those, and running four miles a day in combat boots proves that they can hold up pretty well ^.^
Seriously, thanks for the info guys. I don't usually get straight answers outta ya, but this is gonna help me out a lot.
I'm in a lot of pain right now. Gonna go take a bath to try and make it better.

Hell, I'm 45 and I only weigh about 8 pounds more than I did in high school.
Granted I did get a little chunky about 10-15 years ago.

If you have to wear a dress shoe looking kinda thing, I can't recommend Rockports highly enough. I had a job a couple of years ago which involved standing in a fairly small area on tile floors which is even worse than lots of walking.

Also, as I started working I instantly gained 5 kilogramms. Deskjob + money to buy more and better food is a suboptimal combination. That I detest sports, does not help either.
I've never been a skateboarder, but damn are their shoes comfortable.

Really?
The airwalks I got always had totally flat soles with almost no cushioning...

Well I've never worn Airwalks, but Ripzone, Vans, and Mole have always treated me very well. I have very wide feet, and skate shoes tend to be a wide shoe in general, so maybe it's just my foot type or something. I have no idea.

What does that word mean? I'm too lazy to look it up. I only ask cos we had a guild on my server named that.

Pleasure from someone else's misfortune is the closest english translation that I can find. I think it's like a non-sexual form of mild sadism?
Confirm/Deny?!
With my gym shoes I don't like...buy anything but Nikes. I'm not brand loyal to very much but I love my yearly pair of Nikes. Been wearing 'em since I was like 9. Señor Gains fucked around with this message on 04-13-2006 at 02:19 PM.
To avoid blisters, just wear a pair of thin socks underneath your regular socks.

I don't know exactly why, but I read that in the faggiest way possible, like I'd heard it on Queer Eye or something. Maybe it was the "stylish" part.

On the other hand, I've never in my entire life experienced chafing, so maybe they're good for others. Maradon! fucked around with this message on 04-13-2006 at 05:51 PM.
