No

Had a crazy guy come up to the backdoor at like 1am about 7 months back, so switched from B to A.

A. Got robbed a couple years back because my window wasn't locked. Not about to make the mistake of not locking it.

And no; there's only one residence where my friends and I hang out and the residents not only never lock it but insist that I don't need to knock.

A. All the time. Knob and deadbolt. And I keep my .45 at the computer desk if I'm on my pc, or on my armrest if I'm on the 360.

And I only walk into one friends place, but I knock first.

I didn't even know it was common to not do A. That seems crazy to me. I guess I can sort of understand B, though.

Not afraid of the outside world.

Just acknowledging that no one outside my house will ever have a legitimate reason to enter my house without my permission.

Always knock unless I have a key for some reason and it's expected that I would just let myself in.

B during the day.

does nobody else do it like this?



Depends. I visited a friend regularly who insisted that I not only not knock when coming over, but actively wanted me to go up into his room and wake him up.

A just seems so... fearful, you know? Like I kinda view you all as a bunch of hermits huddled inside you're house afraid of the outside world

Unless you're hosting a party or something what would ever be the advantage to leaving your door unlocked.

I read the thread title as "Do you lick your house?" Um, eww?

Not doing A seems equivalent to not understanding the world. >_>
And no, I always knock unless they tell me ahead of time to just walk in for some reason.

SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude

A, No

Used to alter between A and B depending on if I could be bothered to lock it on entering or not, then a random guy walked into my flat in the middle of dinner, clearly off his face on drugs, telling me this was a set-up and "people gonna die tonight". So now it's always A.

This is why the answer is always A.

That has never happened to me and I'm not about to wait for it to happen first.

A, only because I have some seriously violent neighbors based on what I've heard in the building.
And no, unless they are expecting me.

Depends on the friend.

Yeah, I live in an apartment next to a guy on house arrest. He seems nice enough in passing, and I don't know why he's on house arrest, but I'd rather not have to wonder.

So I don't have to answer the door when people come over, and I don't have to use keys to open the door.
