Keyblade Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Do people keep their shoes on in their own home? I thought that only existed in tv. Maybe I'm just weird, but I wouldn't even go into my own house with my shoes on let alone someone else's. Looking at it that way, it's kind of disrespectful to waltz in with your shoes on when even your host didn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted March 31, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted March 31, 2016 I do too. Not all the time, but if I come in to the house and don't get changed then my shoes normally stay on. I take mine off in other people's houses though because I know people get really arsey about it so better safe than sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but I walk on the pavement, where even if there is a slight damp, the bottoms of your feet pick up all sorts of dirt. There's oil and stuff all over the pavement, it's dirty. Don't get me wrong, I've quickly ran through the house with my shoes on before, but I'd always take them off 99 times out of 100. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choffer Posted March 31, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted March 31, 2016 I have no problem taking my shoes off if I arrive at someone's house where it's clearly what they do. By the same token, I won't take them off if it looks like they're not fussed. Where I do draw the line though is those mental families who all wear slippers and who have special guest slippers too. I know at least two families like that and I always decline any invitations there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When do you take them off? Before bed? When do your feet get to breeeeeeathe? I'm not sure which one of us is mental now tbh. Also god knows what you've stepped on during the day. You've probably accumulated a million different types of germs from simply walking to your car . You're making me feel like I'm OCD, somebody please tell him he's mental. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted March 31, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted March 31, 2016 Arrive at front door. Wipe feet on outside bristly door mat. Open door. Wipe feet, less thoroughly on the softer, inside door mat. Remove shoes. Put shoes in nearby shoe cupboard. Take slippers from nearby shoe cupboard. Put on slippers and proceed about the kitchen/lounge/sex dungeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Also we keep a bunch of slippers at my house but mostly because our tiles aren't good for our feet. Guest slippers sound ridiculous though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troon_villan Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Yes I do. Cuz y'see, I'm not mental. I take mine off at home if I'm not planning on leaving again for a while but that's more of a comfort ting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V01 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The old people's home near me has had scaffolding put up for some kind of work to be done, not a problem in itself but they left the gate to the side road wide open and every gypo in the area has moved onto the still undeveloped field next to it.

Davkaus Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 In my attempts to have a parcel redelivered, I've spent the last 5 minutes chatting to a Vodafone employee in India who is telling me all about his sister in law having a baby, and is very keen on knowing how my day was. **** hell.
