Well, at least Hammie is being totally honest about what can get the carpet dirty – all of his clothes. He did forget to include his body; not sure how he’sdget that across the carpet cleanly.
Pardon me, ma,am, did you see what happened?Yeah, I didI’s standin’ over there in at the head of the living roomAnd here he comeRunning through the front doorPast the couch and lounging chairNekkid as a jay birdAnd I hollered over WrenI said, “Don’t look, Wren!”But it’s too lateShe’d already been incensed.
Boogity, boogity(There he goes)Boogity, boogity(And he ain’t wearin’ no clothes)
In real life, we don’t walk around barefoot in our house. We wear slippers. I have a supply of slippers, in different sizes for people who insist on taking off their shoes.
Unless it’s snowy or rainy when they can wear that spare pair, I tell people not to take off their shoes, because we have a dog that sheds mercilessly, I tell our guests I don’t want their socks, or bare feet. to get coated with dog hair.
Truth be told, it is my excuse because some people have really, really smelly feet, and I don’t want their dirty feet smelling up our carpets, or furniture, since some people put their feet up on a chair or a couch when they watch TV.
I was about 9, brother was 7, we lived across the street from a gully and were told in no uncertain terms not to cross that street. Naturally it’s all we could think about … and one summer day crossed the street. We played in the water and had a grand old time; with brother taking off his shoes/socks and watching as his socks floated down the creek. We got home and were so full of mud, Mom stood us against the garage door in the backyard, sans clothing, and thoroughly hosed us down; making sure the sprayer was on high; it hurt. We didn’t go there again; well, I didn’t.
See, Wanda? If you got the new paint, furniture, lighting, etc. you’d become overly protective about them too. A house is meant to be lived in and not kept on permanent museum display.

I have vague childhood memories of (trying to?) go through the living room without touching the floor, using only furniture.
Mugens Premium Member about 1 year ago
I’m with Mom. We never, ever wear shoes in our home. But Hammie, yeah as usual goes a bit too far.
DJohnny about 1 year ago
Why are they carrying their (maybe not now, but will be) dirty shoes across the house? Put them in the shoe rack in the entrance…

I remember when my parents got their first shag carpet. You would thought we were walking on sacred ground. So many rules when on it.

Does this cartoon violate the law? I tried to write which law but the site censor would not allow me to say ch—- por-.

That’s why you wait until the kids are grown before you replace the carpet.

We never wear our shoes in the house so our floors/carpets remain very clean and in well repair for many years. This is the way to go, Wanda! :D
raybarb44 about 1 year ago
A good example for us all. Only drawback is you can’t sit on the floor or any furniture….
Scott S about 1 year ago
We don’t wear shoes in the house either.

Only Hammie. But then that might be the only way to keep the carpet clean.
