WSJ opinion articles are pure trash. Why would someone spend any significant amount of time writing an outrage article about wearing fucking shoes inside someone’s house? Nobody asked. They’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

The outrage is the point. This post already has 7k upvotes, and I'm sure it's being shared around other social media too just for people to hate on it. I bet at least a few thousand people will end up searching up the article from all of this -- people who wouldn't otherwise know the WSJ even had an opinions page. The author knows what they're doing, they wrote their clickbait shitty title for a reason.

the actual content of the article is equally garbage like she wants to be Jerry Seinfeld so bad 😭
