LPT's aren't just lying for your convenience. Grow a pair already, and just be honest with people.

Or just tell them it’s not a good time. Act like adults.

This is why I don’t answer my door.

I don't usually leave the house in pajamas and bunny slippers, so wearing a coat over them may look a little weird. Willing to give it a go though.

"No babes, not that coat. That's my door answering coat."

Still a lighter in the pocket, though...

The repost bots are usually better at spacing these.

Useless copypasta.

Stop being a passive aggressive waste of skin and just don't answer your door when you don't want to. You waste more time and energy coming up with insane “solutions” that aren’t actually helping you in any way.

I love how you're imagining that I'm otherwise dressed to go outside for even one single extra minute in my own home. I'm going to look pretty ridiculous in only my gym shorts and a coat.

If you're leaving, they can just walk with you…

Thru my house and to the car in the garage? I don’t think so. Lol

Do you regularly have people who aren’t delivery people randomly ringing your doorbell?

tvieno t1_iujrman wrote on October 31, 2022 at 9:21 PM

This only works if you live in a place where you wear coats.

LPTs are supposed to be general. This one is too specific.

But now I have to leave my house to keep up the lie? When I had no plans to go anywhere? Seems like a stupid ass tip.

How about just being honest?
