It took me a while to process what this meant even after seeing the answer, but basically if you have kids or small animals running around and impeding your movement they are "underfoot"... it is likely if you don't pay attention that you may step on one of them. That's always been my understanding of the term. It's never used to describe other adults or larger obstructions.
Annoying that -grad- is allready accepted. Do they really not know how to write it..? Accepting graduat, without the "e" I can understand. But for the few that are too lazy to type the whole word, all the other people taking the quiz have to erase letters after answering correctly. (If they are lucky and looked up, and arent allready several letters along).
Arent misspelling usually bad? I can't think if good misspellings anyway. My point was, this site often tends to cut the last letter off (especially if it is an e, s or h) so I have gotten used to that. But cutting the word halfway threw me, again this time.
(and the abreviation might be (commonly) used, still there is the complete word. Many people use sub for subscription, but on a quiz especially a word one, it would be weird if sub would be the displayed answer.)

(this was a perfectly fine quiz, but I have to complain about something!)
