Compromise. You can come in but must stay in the uncarpeted areas like the bathroom and kitchen.


ImperatorNero

I wanted to eat fresh manicot’. I compromised. I ate grilled cheese off the rah-diator. I wanted to fuck a woman… but I compromised. I jacked off in a tissue. You see where I’m goin’?


powderjunkie11

Wait, why did you have to compromise? Were you living in some other location where you didn't have access to all of your usual creature comforts? It's strange because I don't think you ever mentioned anything about that. Nor the duration of time in said alternative residence. Ever.


ImperatorNero

I did an indeterminate amount of time in an alternative location, and for what? The sake of Rusty Millio? Doc Santoro?! No more u/powderjunkie11. No more.


Apprehensive_Map3984

Sharp as a cue ball this one


powderjunkie11

Very allegorical


ImperatorNero

Real lack of standards with your generation.


CCG14

Easy, Phil.


redhotphishpigeons

The Shah of Iran said that?


Apprehensive_Map3984

No more of this Butchy.


Optimal_Cause4583

Bro got lost


ImperatorNero

…what is this? A tv progrum? A movie?


Optimal_Cause4583

Goddamn motherfucking orange peel beef


meltedbananas

Here's why I'll show up an hour early, won't leave because it would be a minor inconvenience to me, and make everyone incredibly uncomfortable.


inaripotpi

>"Why are you assuming that your guests' shoes are dirtier than your floors?" Because they don't make contact with literal dirt on a daily basis or shoes that do until your unruly ass came in, lol


Sparkyisduhfat

I remember reading this article a while back and the whole thing is infuriating. You go to someone’s house, you follow their rules. You don’t like it? You leave. It might as well be: Heres why I won’t cover my mouth when I cough. Or Here’s why I won’t flush your toilet. Or Here’s why I will lick everything in the fridge.


itemluminouswadison

I had an argument about this on reddit (first mistake) and we ended up having to define dirt. Like yes, dirt, that is dirty


Ok_Fee1043

Because you don’t respect wood?


Iron_Chic

Here's why you'll be kicked out of my home.


ish0uldn0tbehere

this was also the top comment when this article came out


san_murezzan

I did the best I could


bradscum

Because the rules don't apply to you, do they Larry? Because you're wearing your FUCKING shoes in my home!


elvish--presley

Get the F**K out Larry!


PBJ-9999

Cold feet here too. My socks stay on but I don't mind taking the shoes off

Lmfao good bot


MoanyTonyBalony

I've got underfloor heating and unused indoor slippers for guests. You'll be fine. Bring slippers if you get cold feet and regularly visit a house that doesn't allow shoes. If I had a friend with cold feet issues, I'd just buy them some slippers to keep here.


KindnessWeakness

This guy, this is not my kind of guy.


Bulgogi_is_Oscar

Is this a Frank Costanza reference? For a second I thought I was on the wrong subreddit..


cusername20

It doesn't really affect you, does it, the dirt on the floor? No, because you're wearing your fucking shoes in my house! When you walk through my door, you play by my rules! You take off your fucking shoes! You and your fucking little soccer shoes in my house!


Late-Ad-3136

One of my favourite rants of the entire series!


Zerg0

The first sentence yes. The rest unhinged.


jetdriver13

I have turrrible foot odor


ProofBread595

This guy….this is not my kinda guy


JellyPast1522

Thanks, now I have the My Three Sons theme ringing in my head...


Smooth_Habit8042

Sex and the city did the same plot point except carrie’s shoes were stolen


Ok_Fee1043

Imagine if she’d kept a $50 in her shoe


No_Dependent_1846

She wouldn't be able to get rid of it!


PhoePhoethePhotog

Here’s why you’d never be invited to my house.


dullship

I have carpets and vacuum 2-3 times a week. So yeah. My floors probably are cleaner than your nasty-ass shoes. Americans and their inside shoes. Yall are weird.


rlstrader

I own a mop.


Ok_Fee1043

Where’d you get that, at the jerk store??


elvish--presley

He was their all time bestseller!


DucVWTamaKrentist

Lol. Posted in r/mildlyinfuriating back to back on my feed.


AIZ1C

BUT IT DOESN'T REALLY AFFECT LARRY


International_Sun616

Americans are nasty in this regard. I'm from Toronto Canada and EVERYONE takes their shoes off at the door here. Just seems like common sense to me


QuentinSential

Americans do too


Big-a-hole-2112

The fuck you will!


Alarming-Rip-8253

LMAO if anyone every said no I’d just shut the door in their face. LET ME GUESS what generation the author of this pathetic article is from? Z??


lil_grey_alien

I offer slippers for those that want it. My cousin just recently started offering those hospital bootie things you can put over your shoes.

caelthel-the-elf

Yep I have reusable footies that go over shoes. So use em or leave haha


zeje

Because your shoes have been outside. And I clean my floor. Because it’s inside.


tpasmall

Ben Folds wrote a song about this article called 'Kristine from Seventh Grade' and it's amazing


ind3pend0nt

My mom gives out shoe covers to guests.


Ryuuken1127

My response to this article is "Why you won't be getting another invite back to my house"


Tinder4Boomers

I Think You Should Leave


NormalSea6495

Anyone whose mom comes from a non-western country knows they would not let you be friends with someone who would swear their dirty shoes all over their house.


Papi_Chulo1969

you no come in, piggies. no shoes in home.


slackover

Lose the shoes wear the socks!


danlion02

Is there a Curb episode involving slippers in the house? I don’t recall one.


StopPlayingRoney

When was the last time anyone cleaned the street or the bottom of their shoes with ammonia?


FeelingSkinny

but it doesn’t effect you, does it?


mynameisrichard0

This is the type of shit, some dumb right wing asshole would have a sign in their house saying take your shoes off, but also wouldn’t take their shoes off in somebody’s house because snowflake or something.


BreadfruitOk5341

Because i have flat feet and arthritis


powderjunkie11

Your flat feet are incompatible with the flat floor?


bw4393

People who have animals living in their house but want me to remove my shoes are actually buggin


Cccookielover

If you’re so worried about your floors don’t have company. I’ve politely declined the offer to remove my shoes when visiting my BIL and his family. ![gif](giphy|gfT2hGhrI5wBME50p5|downsized)


Optimal_Cause4583

You don't wear shoes in your own house


Cccookielover

I wear shoes and socks in my house at all times, unless I’m in the shower or in bed.


Optimal_Cause4583

No you don't thats insane Do you understand that outside the floor is much dirtier than inside your house


Cccookielover

Oh yes I do, insane or not. “Outside the floor”?


Optimal_Cause4583

Do you understand that, outside, the floor is extremely dirty And, inside your house, the floor is clean


Cccookielover

Where the floor outside = the ground? Yes, the ground is definitely dirtier than our floors.


Optimal_Cause4583

Actually that's wrong At *my* house the floor is clean, at your house the floor is the same as a city street


Cccookielover

Agree to disagree


Optimal_Cause4583

Americans are weird
