The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Because I have multiple doors in my house which lead outside. I normally take my shoes off when I come inside, but sometimes I come in one door and then want to leave via a different door only to realise my shoes are at the other end of the house.
Dog pee.
Id like to add dog poo in the form of mud and dirt tracked in from the backyard by said dog during the 6 months it rains nonstop where im at

Well, personally, I have foot problems, so walking barefoot is painful. So I wear flip flops around the house.
-
Leftover habit from never having bare feet touch the ground from my army days.
-
Kids leave and drop things all over house (Lego bricks).
-
I wear huge clown shoes. No room near the door to leave them.
-
Shoes off to flip-flops on. Feet feel protected.
You ever banged you toe on something, and you're also telling me you never thought 'this wouldn't be a problem if I has shoes on'?
Do you ever learn from your mistakes? /s

Because we have dogs, cats, surprises and cold floors.
Years ago I had a glass light cover shatter in the hall between my bed and toilet. Thought I got it all swept up. Two weeks later, a 2am half asleep piss trip ended in 10 minutes of digging a glass shard out of my foot and stopping the bleeding. I now wear something with a sole very nearly at all times.
I have bad plantar fasciitis so I wear special old person orthotic shoes. And most of my house is hardwood so generally if I’m on my feet I’ll wear my shoes inside to prevent foot pain.
🤷🏻♀️ It’s not like I don’t wipe my feet off on the doormat rug

I'll say that I don't usually wear shoes in the house, but it's also a lost cause since I have two big dogs.
