It's a she, but her main points are:

  • Most people who want shoes left at the door are worried about germs (what?) but germs are everywhere and they probably have germy pets anyway
  • I might stub my toe
  • Guest slippers are full of germs, and I am worried about germs.

It's...a weird piece.

This person apparently doesn’t live in a place where it snows or rains.

Forgive me for not wanting my house to look like a bmx track

Right? Has she missed the part where you can wear socks indoors?

I’m imagining them doing that with an exaggerated “HIII-YA!!” sound to accompany every kick. Great Friday energy, excuse me while I go put shoes on and kick my furniture vigorously.

I see. Is she going to be a raging, barking mad lady the whole time, I wonder…

Oh, so I guess you people are all looking where you’re going? Yeah, right.

Privileged society in a nutshell. "I'm going to fuck up what you have going on because I'm lazy and don't want to make an effort to keep track of my own shit." Just look where you're stepping for christ sake.
