It's due to people like TC that the arrogant loudmouth American stereotype exists.


Seriously, if TC is actually serious, he is the worst kind of american...

It's rude turning up to a house with feet that smell like ass, torn up socks and an inability to walk on hardwood. Does she live on top of a mountain or something?


People with overly sweaty feet will tell you that you can shower, put on clean ass socks, and have sweat ass feet like an hour later. Oh, and all the powders and shit for that are trash designed to work for 5 minutes then require more application so you buy more

They're not being rude at all. It's rude to go over to someone's house and not immediately take off your shoes. No one wants to clean up shit off their floors.

How do you feel about guests using your toilet?

How do you feel about leprechauns?

That's a stupid point you're trying to make.

- Using a toilet is because of a basic human function
- do you expect others to wipe your ass like you expect them to clean your muddy tracks on the floor?

People are spreading their fecal molecules around your house, it's honestly not that different as long as the shoe wearer doesn't have muddy ass shoes. I never have muddy ass shoes.

i'd also expect my guests not to leave a turd in my toilet in the same way i wouldnt expect them to leave mud/dirt in my apt.

if you don't want to take them off, clean the floor before you leave and im sure it would be fine

It's the floor. The floor. Do all you people eat off it and lick it down every morning? It's meant to be walked on with *gasp* shoes. It's not your bed. It's not the dinning room table.
That's what brooms and mops are for. Every Saturday I clean my floors. It's called housekeeping. I have never known a single human being in my entire life who doesn't keep their shoes on inside. No family, immediate or extended. No friends or their families. No coworkers when they've had a thing at their homes. None. Ever. Anywhere.

I went over to my sister in laws today for a birthday party and she told everyone to take their shoes off. I scoffed at the notion and told her it's rude to request that of guests. What if someone has foot odor, what if someone has nasty feet or holey socks they're ashamed of? What if someone doesn't want to walk around in everyone's foot sweat and other nasty floor stuff? Not only that but in this case the whole house is hardwood. Not that I think it matters if it's carpet or hard floor, it's rude either way, but in this case it literally made no sense.

Put some slippers in you bag/car then.... wont be running around here tracking dirt around my house

If you are ashamed of holey socks...

My body my choice I shouldnt have to strip for you to please your weird foot fetish. I am not just some object to to feed your sexual appetites you perverts! Ordering me to take off my shoes is basically foot rape!

All joking aside I cannot go into a house without my shoes no matter how rude it seems the last time I did I stepped on a loose needle In their carpet it got stuck in the bone, and had to have it removed by a doctor (the needle not the bone thankfully). Never again please!

Thankfully I dont get invited places often so it isnt really a problem.

I don't walk around without shoes. Period. Especially right now in the cold. That's just me. I've never been in the situation but if it were me I'd simply say "Okay. Bye then."

She just sounds like a total *b* word. I host things at my house. You know what. Expect that people are going to use your toilet. Expect that people will sit on your sofa. Expect that people may drop food. And damn well expect that people will want to wear shoes. If you host things don't be a particular ass about details. Otherwise don't host things. Because only an asshole would tell people to remove their shoes.

In all seriousness, how does telling some to take off their shoes make you an asshole???

Wouldn't be wearing them in my house. I didn't go buy and then put down nice flooring for someone's dirty ass gritty shoes to scratch and mark up.

It's like you people don't understand the wear and tear dirty footwear will put on flooring.

I have a mix of hardwood floors and carpet. Ive never asked guests to take off their shoes personally but I dont mind if other hosts do ask. Most people tend to see how clean my house is and just take off their shoes.

The only time I got offended was when my brother in law was staying over. I had just finished mopping the floors when he went out into the backyard barefoot to make a call. Then he walked inside and tracked dirt all over the floors. I asked my husband to say something to him, I was pissed. Like wtf put some damn shoes if youre going to go outside. I had to clean his nasty feet print.

It's possible he hasn't done much travelling. There are cultural expectations, at least outside of the US, where not taking off your shoes when entering a home is considered very disrespectful. It seems to be a divided view with the Americans here, though.

Bro, if you're getting mad about asked to be clean in someone elses environment... then you probably need to wash your damn feet, and also get new socks.

P.S. Change your socks daily, in fact take a note from Lieutenant Dan from Forrest Gump... Keep your feet safe.

Furthermore I work in an environment that has hexavalent chromium and other chemicals. You think I wanna bring that shit into my house with my kids? Fuck that.
