Yes, yes I am assuming that.

You're required to go barefoot in certain buildings in Thailand, and the feeling of wonderfully smooth old hardwood floors beneath your feet is just amazing.

I'm glad that dorkus will never get to experience that.

It doesn't though. Regular vacuuming/mopping keeps the floors clean. And only "clean" in the sense that there's no visible mess, not actually clean. Especially if you have carpet.

You're wrong, but that's ok. You don't have to come into my house. Or the houses of the vast majority of people I know in real life, where wearing shoes inside is pretty much the standard policy.

What's that got to do with anything? Different places, different cultures, different rules. I wasn't saying that shoes on indoors is better because it's common where I live or something like that, just making the point that people do come into my house with its "poo poo-smeared floor" because they also wear shoes in their own houses and so do most other people around us.


This topic did get me thinking though: if you're in one of those shoes-off-indoors areas, and you're having a party or a barbecue or whatever, do you just stick to only-indoors or only-outdoors, or do people take their shoes on or off whenever they want to go in or out of the house? Seems like a hassle.

None of my friends and no one's home I have ever been in has a "shoes on in the house" policy. Some people wear indoor slippers (that are only worn indoors) because its cold, but not your outdoor shoes. Do they just like, stick their dirty sneakers up on your couch when they sit down? Track dirt in mud everywhere?

Do these monsters wearing their runners to loving bed? What on earth.

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.

'round here you would put on / take off shoes but the host might say not to worry about it. The assumption is that you're just going to chat in the kitchen or go to the washroom and not Riverdance on the master bedroom pillows.
