Haha, last week I went to a new friend's house for a playdate and I noticed right away that they are a "shoes off in the house" person. I was all "Yes! Here's my chance!!" and I took my shoes off at the door and had David take his off, too. THANK YOU ML.
I don't like shoes in my house but I never make anyone but the kids (after playing outside) take them off.
I vacuum enough that its nbd.
What is the ml consensus on this? I didn't know it was a thing.
Canada=off. USA=mixed. Each side thinks the other is super weird.
Hmmm I think it's kind of rude to make people take their shoes off. I don't like too especially when I'm wearing sandals (I hate being barefoot on unfamiliar ground) or when I'm wearing boots. Ugh so hard to get on and off.
What's the proper term for a backyard barbecue wedding? Can they ever be classy?

I think you are pretty cool. And I give you full props for the spanx thing. I may be biased though. I had an unfortunate spanx experience before and haven't quite gotten over it and will never, ever see them in any other way than unsexy, unflattering.
Apples and oranges but i think c_joy makes me snort more i think.
i personally would never have an outdoor cat or dog but would be willing to withhold my judgement on others on a case by case basis. (But really do not like the idea of it).
I am torn on the shoes off/on in the house debate. Fundamentally I think I am a shoes off person. I like people to take their shoes off in my house but i do not mind if someone is uncomfortable doing so and am more than willing to take my shoes off in other people's homes but I also have feet issues which complicates things. If someone with gross feet takes their shoes off at my place, part of me wants to scream "put the shoes back oooooonnn!". This is an ongoing dilemma in my life.
Cash bars...hmmmn. I cannot say too much as I did have cash bar for part of my wedding. but it was not by choice. I live in a small town and had limited choices in venues and the venue that suited our need the most had a mandatory cash bar but I made sure that the other part was very open bar.
is there a proper term for BBQ vows? I am not sure but I think done sincerely in a small, intimate way it can be done classy. My h has someone his Facebook that had a potluck wedding...for 200 people. I don't think that was necessarily classy. To be honest, I am not even sure how that would work logistically.

Mix. I left my shoes (flip flops) on when I went to my friends house tonight but when they came to my house they took their shoes off. Granted, I have all carpets and it was raining, but still. I will do whatever people want me to do.

I just want to know the answer to the shoes in the house question.
How about one on, and one off? Compromise.
Yeah, but then which foot does she use to hop around? You know she can't be walking one one/one off. That step/clunk gets old.
Also, OP, you have not named me in any positive fashion. You are on probation. Lucky for you, I have a terrible memory so if you're funny twice I'll totally forget that as of right now we're nearly enemies.

I guess you could alternate? Or maybe just take all of your clothes off, see how that goes.

Who's at the top of your "free murder" list? (Mine is Jenny McCarthy.)
Ooohhh, that is a very thought provoking question. Does it have to be a famous person? My free "cut their tongue out and maim their hands so they cannot ever participate in social media again" list would probably be longer though.
Let's not be over before we even start! To be honest, there are lots of people who are on my "must read post" list. I just didn't feel like I could name all.
