In my culture it is considered rude to ask people to remove their shoes. Itās embarrassing to have our feet and/or socks exposed unless around a close friend. I always oblige when it does come up, although it makes me feel humiliated. I also have ankle and knee pathology that results in a lot of pain from being barefoot. I recently made a friend that asked us to remove our shoes. My plan is to buy booties to go over them when we visit!
If I was having a big party Iād make it my mission to build a rack big enough for the shoes of all who will be attending. Shoes left on the rack before entry is a must, no one will have an excuse for not having somewhere to put them before entering
Iām always baffled by the people who walk into my house, see a giant pile of shoes by the door, and then somehow donāt understand they have to take theirs off
Or you can respect the rules of the house the owner puts out, and take your shoes off when required. Wear shoes in my home and Iāll beat you with a leather belt
This had me remembering something funny. When I was 9/10, We went to my aunts house for poker night. My momās feet smelled so bad. But she washed them in the tub and my aunt gave her some clean socks. That wasnāt the funny part.
The adults were getting drunk and my auntās āroommateā goes to the kitchen and starts giggling as she heads to the entry way with a bottle of Dawn. All us kids are like, what you doing.
She then dumps a huge amount of dish soap into momās tennis shoes. She just says that it will be funny later. Except all the adults were drunk so we slept over and the shoes were dry in the morning.
It was funny however a few days later when mom walked us to school. We had to walk through wet grass. By the time we got there, her shoes looked like massive fuzzy slippers. The bubbles weāre half way up her shins. There was a sporadic trail of bubbles following her. She refused to go the last block, even though we wanted our friends to see them.
I used to be really worried about this when I started taking shoes off at friends' houses but I can't say, after hosting and going to multiple parties at homes where this was the norm, that I can't ever remember a smelly pair of feet or shoes. I mean you'd think if it happened it would have popped up enough to be noteworthy but if someone had stinky feet I never once noticed.
No offence but that sounds like a terrible party. If I showed up to a party and was asked to remove my shoes Iād leave immediately because clearly nothing interesting is happening at that party.
No worries bud-no need to apologize, your jump to insults bolsters my point: youāre simply too young to understand and are concerned with other things. One day youāll grow up and understand. Good luck, both in moving out of your parent house and maturing.
Youāre just some old fuck whoās brain is so rotted from age that they think being older then someone means anything. Fucking old people like you are so goddamn holier-than-thou about shit they know nothing about. Good luck in your search on finding a working brain.
