pretty easy. carpets are ugly and gross. mmh accumulated sweat from a thousand feet and having to ask company to remove their shoes when they show up, yeah great time

however tile or wood or marble, hell yeah. easy to clean and you can even mop it! you can even put a few rugs in strategic spots if you want

oh the tile is cold on your feet? wow idiot, put on slippers

Carpet is easier to keep free of dust and crumbs, hard surfaces are easier to keep free of stains. I guess it all depends on what sort of mess you're more likely to make.

i literally do not understand this

with hard surfaces you just vacuum and that gets rid of dust and crumbs, and then you mop in order to take care of stains

No see, with hard surfaces, crumbs get kicked around and collect in corners/nooks, which are a pain in the rear end to clean even with the right tools. Carpet fibers trap crumbs in the place where they fall, so they don't accumulate in hard to reach places.

Walking on bare floor is like walking on cold, hard stone. You know who else had to walk on cold, hard stone without the benefit of cushioning from nice shoes or extravagant rugs? Peasants.

I'm not a peasant, so I chose carpet for my house. It is not only the right choice, it is the only choice.

where are these untouchable places that these dust and crumbs end up? places like "near the wall" or "in the corner?"

surely an impossible conundrum, the best solution is to let the crumbs get ground into the carpet to rot forever

I'd much rather vacuum than mop but they make Swifters now and that might as well be vacuuming really. So hard floors rule in every way. They just look a lot better too.
