Holy gently caress this is the wrongest take of all wrong takes. Don't drag your poo poo into my house. Do you know the dirtiest surface that you contact regularly? The floor of your car. What touches it? Your shoes. If your belly gets in the way of bending over to unlace them, that's not my fault.

The act of taking of your shoes is in part symbolic. You are entering a home into which you have been invited. Behind you is the cold dark. You take off your shoes to signal, I am entering a place of peace. You would enter a home with your shoes on, asking no permission, if you were a robber, a rapist.

Kazanski posted:Again, this "if you don't like it, leave" idea is nonsense. I'm already standing at your door. If you're going to have weird requirements to entry that poo poo needs to be listed on the invite or discussed beforehand, so I can reject your invitation at that point. I'm not turning back around after making the trip over and having everyone talk about how weird Kazanski is because she'd rather leave than take her shoes off. I'll just take them off the one time and make a mental note that going to your house sucks. You are talking about party invites, certainly it should be listed then. I would not invite people into my abode at all. Who is trolling who? For an unpopular opinion, after you get home from a tryst of eating pussy, rear end, and general loving, you should not brush your teeth or use mouthwash. Remind your immune system what it's there for. *also if in the midst of anal sex you see a bit of poo poo on the condom just casually wipe it away and keep going

Wearing shoes isn’t particularly comfortable and I find it weird when people wear them longer than they need to. Like we’re sitting on a couch watching a movie why are you still wearing shoes?? Also, if you need to defend your hygiene on SA then you are probably gross

I would think it was a bit strange if people visited me and took off their shoes when they came in. You know, it just seems a bit familiar to me. I wouldn't take my shoes off when I visited somebody else's house unless they asked me.  Back when I had piano lessons, the kid who was in before me always took his shoes off when he came into the tutor's house. I never did, the girl who had her lesson after me never did, the tutor himself was always wearing his shoes while he was teaching, so that this one guy was always taking his shoes off always seemed a wee bit unusual to me.

Like we’re sitting on a couch watching a movie why are you still wearing shoes?? Sometimes if it's somewhere I don't really want to be, I like to know I have the option to just get up and leave. If your shoes are off, there is an extra few moments of putting on your shoes where they can try and stop you. Other common traps to be mindful of: if they put a movie on or change to a channel with a movie that's just starting, leave immediately. It's too awkward to leave in the middle and they will keep you there with promises of "oh there's only 45 minutes left" "i don't want to pause it" etc. Never agree to stay for dinner unless they specify exactly when it's going to be. Don't drink alcohol at all if you have friends/family that will nag you about it not being safe to drive when you had a single beer 3 hours ago. Or you can just stay at home alone all the time and never have to worry about making sure you have a clean quick escape plan.

Like we’re sitting on a couch watching a movie why are you still wearing shoes??  If it's my house, I am barefoot. You do what you like but, gently caress shoes. If it's your house and you don't invite me to, I will ask if it's ok to take them off. It's like when people never take off their coat. It feels aggressively standoffish.

People who insist on the whole shoes off thing are insufferable because of what it represents. This mentality of "i must keep everything pure and clean for when it is tainted that is the source of my unhappiness" is borderline mental illness. Carpets get dirty, floors need sweeped, sometimes people stand in poo poo. That's life and dealing with it is far more down to earth than striving for some clean utopua where your carpet is never soiled. I see similar things in a friend of mine who insists on parking at the furthest away spot in a car park to avoid anyone bashing his door or scraping his bumpers. I can understand why he does it but the metal energy you have to waste to care about something so insignificant sounds pathetic to me. Then again he's worked a full time job for a decade now and still hasn't moved out of his parents so maybe its just a mentally weak thing.

That is the hubris of a man who hasn't ever done the simple act of taking his shoes off when he gets home from work and thus discovered he has to clean his floors way way less. It's not paranoia, it's laziness, friend. I don't require it of guests but my shoes come off as soon as I'm home bc I'm the one who cleans it, and I am all about reducing my own workload.

Clean your floors when you're going to have guests and at no other time¹. It's the floor. It's for walking on. Who cares if there's some dirt? Oh no, the dirt I transferred from my shoes/feet onto the floor might get transferred back onto my shoes/feet, what a disaster! And you were going to mop/sweep/vacuum before you had anyone over anyway, regardless of how clean the floors appeared, right? So don't waste that effort by unnecessarily cleaning your floors on a regular schedule. ¹ Unless you spill something, obviously.

The floor is for walking, storage, sleeping, and so forth. It will never be clean, but I don't want to have to worry that if I pass out in the wrong room, I might end up with a significant amount of feces on my face. e: except right by the door, which is basically outside.

Cupboards are nice, but not useful for pallets of food potatoes or whatever my relatives are growing too much of. edit for better content: walking at around midnight is better and safer than doing so in the middle of the day or just before or after standard working hours. Similarly, after-bars-close gym folk are the nicest, if not always the most sober. Polyseme has a new favorite as of 12:28 on Oct 29, 2018 |
