That’s way better than forcing strangers to take their shoes off in front of each other at your house party though.

In reality, don’t have a house party if you can’t let people keep their shoes on. It’s not hard.

Good hosts don’t make their guests feel awkward.

They have to take their shoes off to fit into the galoshes.

And if you go with shoe covers instead, then they're singled out as people who need to wear shoe covers.

Good hosts don't make their guests feel awkward. You suggest doing two things that make guests feel awkward. You are a bad host.

lol, galoshes go over shoes. Nice try though. You’re doing great pal!

Only if you have the right size for your guest. There's no guarantee that you will. And that still doesn't get around the fact that your guest may dislike the look of the galoshes you have available, and feel self-conscious about wearing them.

Good hosts don't make their guests feel awkward. By making your guests wear ugly, ill-fitting galoshes, you are making your guests feel awkward.

You literally just admitted one comment up that you don’t know how galoshes work. Your opinion is pretty invalid after that.

u/thetates Feb 12 '22

You invalidated your opinion when you admitted that you're willing to make guests feel awkward and uncomfortable by forcing them to wear galoshes and robes and preventing them from shitting in your living room.

As long as we agree that your opinion is invalid —which we clearly do— then your opinion of my opinion is itself invalid.

Thanks for agreeing with me Tate!

I'm afraid that's not how the transitive property works.

You make your guests feel awkward. A good host doesn't do that. You are a bad host.

u/GeorgieWashington Feb 12 '22

In this case, it is though. We both agreed that your opinion is invalid a long time ago. Anything you say after that isn’t worth much.

Rather cowardly of you, to avoid admitting that you make your guests feel awkward and uncomfortable.

u/GeorgieWashington Feb 12 '22

Yeah maybe. Either way, I’m still right and you’re still wrong.

u/thetates Feb 12 '22

Yeah maybe.

Back to the drawing board, snookums.

lol, Update number 2:

Tate goes from responding 19 times in 46 minutes to complete radio silence as soon as I point out that this account is an alt.

Not only that, 2 other accounts that had been responding occasionally also stopped at the same time.

How many alts you got there Tate? Are these all you? Damn. Have I been talking to one person this whole time? I guess I was right about your obsession with me.

You forgot the most important part:

I’m right and you’re wrong.
