In their houses?

It's loving disgusting you're walking all over, you're in public bathrooms where people piss and poo poo on the floors, outside walking where a dog took a dump, and that's not even talking about how uncomfortable it is to have shoes on all day.

Can some american explain this to me because i'm at a loss for any sort of benefit to this, take your drat rear end shoes off at the door you don't live in a barn!

on the contrary op, the only people i know that wear shoes in their homes are europeans, which fits with all deodorantless stereotypes there are of euros

maybe you just don't know enough people because from what i understand it's quite common in the USA

Hello person from teeny tiny country who thinks the hugemassive country with dozens of totally different climates and terrain all do the same things with regards to their houses and shoes.

Not wearing shoes in the house ,but letting your animals track in mud and then piss and poo poo and shed all over the house honestly doensn't make any sense either

i mean that's a thread for another day but yeah i agree it's disgusting people own cats, they take dumps, walk all around in their poo poo, then jump on the counters and furniture, cats are essentially the wearing your outdoor shoes inside of the pet world

If you keep a clean litter box this is literally nbd unless the cat somehow pisses on itself or literally steps in poo poo, in which case there might be something wrong and you can clean up the cat yourself.

Like I won't pretend it isn't gross to find litter tracked around sometimes but cats are anal af about being clean so it's nbd other than having to vaccuum more often, which you'd have to for their fur anyway even if you had outdoor cats who only piss outside.

just because you can't smell it anymore doesn't mean that ever person coming into your home doesn't smell your cat and the litter, they ALL smell, everyone knows the "cat house" smell

OP, it's possible that the only Americans you know have very filthy houses. How do you know these people? Are they related to you?

I guess anything is possible, they’re not relatives mostly friends I’ve made and their extended families, but for Americans they all seemed cleaned compared to the, I’m so fat I roll around on a scooter eating blocks of “American cheddar” hoarder Americans

- a simulacrum of cheese made from processed dairy byproducts is called "American cheese" in America, not "American cheddar"
- cheddar made in America is just called "cheddar"
- not being a full-on hoarder who gets invited to reality TV shows, is a very low bar for cleanliness
- if you are an hoarder, you can't roll around on a scooter because your house is too cluttered for anything with wheels

oh. i apologise, fat people eating cheddar
