I actually regularly got weird looks when I asked people to take off their shoes when they entered my place. Very weird culture to keep your outdoor shoes on when inside the house.
lol, well for you guys it's weird to keep them on, for us it's weird to take them off inside. It's just not practical and has a sense of exaggerated neatness.
Every time you go outside maybe to do an errand you have to put on your shoes again. Or when you visit someone, maybe a birthday, everyone has to put their shoes off? It seems really weird to me.
I put my damn shoes on the coffee table too. If you don't like it I will grind my shoes on your new couch. Fuck your couch!
