        Maybe they are just naturally warm. When I was younger you could feel the heat pouring off of me.

        Or live in an apartment and leech heat off of your neighbours

        There have been at least a few times where I had to open a window up in the winter just because it was getting too warm just from it being an apartment lmao

          I had a place like that. The landlord that owned the building was too tight to put up any kind of insulation so everyone on the ground floor had exorbitant heating bills, and I on the top floor had the windows open all the time.

      I may not look stupid, but I feel stupid wearing clothes that are all tight and clothes-y instead of comfy stuff in my own home.

    I think I’m the odd man out here, I’m always fully dressed at home. My wife never understands why I wear shoes in her house, but my feet are cold and I’m not going to buy another pair of shoes (slippers) when I already have shoes that are perfectly warm and comfortable.

      As a European, wearing outdoor shoes at home indoors feels gross and unhygienic.

        I feel the same as an American but while less common than in Europe or Asia, I think there are many households in America that still habitually remove their shoes at the door.

      In German, slipper is Hausschuhe, literally “home-shoes”. I have two pairs of shoes, one for the exterior of the house, and one (my slippers) for the interior of the house, because my exterior-shoes are dirty with exterior-things, when my home-shoes stay clean. Cleanliness is the only reason I have slippers.

        I know what you mean, but English, “exterior of the house” usually refers to the outside walls of the house. So I am imagining you walking around on the exterior walls of your home with your special wall walking shoes like Pipi Longstocking.

        Sorry to tell you but your house floor is still dirty. With the flesh from your body, the debris from entropy dissolving your possessions, even with outside things like tyre dust and petrol fumes and pollen and evaporated dog piss. If your shoes are wiped to where they look clean, wearing them indoors isn’t going to make much difference. And you should always assume every floor is dirty when you make a 5-second rule decision. Now excuse me, I gotta go swiff my floors.

          Both sides the same, huh? Stepping in dog shit or someone’s spit outside is the same as stepping in dust from your own body inside?

            If you step in dogshit and don’t clean it off immediately you’re an ass. If you spit on the ground you’re also an ass.

          With one tongue-in-cheek sentence you unraveled your point lol. The difference between the ground outside and the floor inside is that I regularly clean the floor inside while outdoors remains outdoors. I don’t think people are wearing slippers so their floors will be perfectly sanitary and able to be eaten off of, it’s so that you’re not bringing in piles of dirt and nastiness every time you come inside. It helps keep your floors clean for longer and makes cleaning them easier.

            My point is that there’s a big difference between coming inside with visually-clean shoes and “bringing piles of dirt and nastiness.” I observed during COVID “lockdown” when I and my husband didn’t leave our apartment at all because of his vulnerability, and there was absolutely no difference in the amount of grime I swept off our floors from the previous weeks. Nor has it increased now that we exit and re-enter. Neither my shoes nor his wheelchair tires are tracking in any measurable amount of additional dirt. What did make a difference was the Palisades Fire. We were on the eastern edge of the Warning Zone, upwind, and evacuated as a precaution, leaving our door and windows shut and HVAC off. We returned to find a thick layer of ash on our balcony and a thin dusting of ash throughout the indoors. So I maintain the outside gets in regardless. If you don’t choose to take off your shoes, wipe your feet.

            Changing shoes is not going to protect you from bird flu. It’s respiratory like regular flu and COVID and RSV, all of which are why I KN95 up when going indoors around people away from home.

      A pair of house shoes is fantastic! My house shoes are light and slip on, with soft soles and easy to pop on and off for the couch, bed, etc. They are regular shoes too, not slippers.
