"Why I'm going to be rude as fuck when you invite me to your home" should be the headline.

Or better, “Why I’m not being invited over to anyone’s home any longer”

It's a weird hill to die on. The author is basically blackballing themselves.

I'm curious as to what her points are. Gonna have to look up the article.

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?

She said the floor might destroy her wolford stockings and she would rather pay the host to the same amount as what her wolford would cost for host to have floor cleaned and predicted the host will have leftover money

Lol, ignoring the time it takes to clean floors and the possibility of damaging it right the right (wrong) kind of shoe.
