So what? You've already established that wearing them around doesn't make things dirty, why would that matter for a couch but not a carpet?

For one, couches are harder to clean than floors. But also, people will be sitting, lying, leaning, etc. on the couch, but only standing on the floor, so things that are transferred to the couch may then be transferred to the clothes, hands, etc. but things on the floor will only come into contact with feet and shoes, which will also be coming into contact with the ground anyway. Basically, the same reason you're allowed to walk on trains but not put your feet on the seats.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I'm not buying it. I've been convinced that shoes are clean as hell, you can't fool me with this backpedalling

People sit and lie on the floor all the time, because they know a filthy Anglo hasn't trailed poo poo all over it.

This, by the by, is why its "the floor is lava" not "golvet är lava" or "le floor is le lava".

You wipe your feet on the doormat before you come in, if necessary, and you don't put your feet on the couch. This is not rocket science.
This is also why I don't have toilet paper. We all use the same hand towel and wash it when it gets too stiff to bend anymore.

We're a fan of haute cuisine here so I must insist the shoes come off. Very shortly after you arrive we'll be dumping a bag of Oreos on the floor and eating the Oreos off the floor like an animal you piece of poo poo.

Not really. This is one of the standards that works pretty much every time. Any time someone who's a regular in pyf or GBS brings it up, they're deliberately taking a poo poo in the punch bowl.

To me, these derails always read like "People in nice climates who mostly walk on concrete, asphalt and manicured lawns" VS "people in lovely climates who walk in snow or mud 9 months out of the year" and nobody realizes it.

The real power move is to ask your guests to take off their shoes while leaving yours on.

I wear leg braces and it's a big pain in the rear end to have to take my shoes off for the sake of someone's super special clean floor but I will if they are really adamant about it. This derail is ableist, I guess. Maybe?

People in leg braces still need to take their shoes off. People in wheelchairs still need to take the wheels off. And don't act like you don't hear me because it also says so clearly on our front door.

Only if you don't immediately wash them afterwards. That's what God loves to see.

drat now that would be harsh, imagining someone either having to crawl across the floor pulling their legs behind them or for some reason having outdoor wheels and indoor wheels having to like swap them in the entryway.
