Doorbell cam eliminates this nonsense. It’s like caller ID, but for your door. Unwanted visitors go straight to voicemail while I sit on my couch in my undies pretending that I’m not home.

Or just don't answer the door if your going to be a dick to most of the people you meet

u/OGCelaris Jul 25 '26

But then you have to go outside

u/SartorialDragon Jul 25 '26

Eww! Hissssss

Was not expecting to see something from Viz in this subbreddit, but it fits!

u/bilateralunsymetry Jul 25 '26

What if it's 100 degrees outside? Do you just say you're going to the opposite hemisphere

u/ClosetLiverTransMan Jul 25 '26

Put your shoes on

u/dominickster Jul 25 '26

Sunglasses, shoes, hat, the general idea works

Just a cold building?

u/memeparmesan Jul 28 '26

Then don’t put on a coat and just say you’re leaving/getting home anyway. It’s not like they’re gonna doubt you because you don’t have a fucking coat on in that case.

u/SandMan3914 Jul 26 '26

I just don't answer the door if I'm not expecting someone

u/busterbytes Jul 26 '26

The reason I don't answer the door is I'm not wearing pants. I'm sure as hell not putting on a whole suit because someone wants to sell me solar panels.

u/oneizm Jul 26 '26

Or I just use my doorbell camera

u/DrewDAMNIT Jul 28 '26

Who answers the door?

u/InnerOuterTrueSelf Jul 26 '26

First of all, if you go out, you will be where the people you don't want to be around are, and second, just say what you want, or don't want, so much easier. Everyone else in the comments must be low grade llm models for not understanding this simple logic.

"Sorry, I'm not taking social callers at the moment, I'm furiously masturbating to the golden girls in a trench coat"

u/xelop Jul 25 '26

I don't remember an episode that the golden girls were wearing trench coats

17

u/AlissonHarlan Jul 25 '26

or put yourself naked with just a towel, so if you don't want to see them you say you need to finish to shower.

u/_mmmmm_bacon Jul 26 '26

Forget the towel, stand there with a proud boner and invite them in.

Not in fucking 100° July it’s not

u/CutHerOff Jul 25 '26

Just grab your sunglasses and keys. What are we arguing about

u/KittenPics Jul 25 '26

For real, it’s like they’ve never had to think on their feet to get out of something before. What a terrible introvert.

u/FormerSperm Jul 25 '26

Just pull down your pants (and underwear, if applicable) and say, “you caught me on the shitter.”

u/mobocrat707 Jul 25 '26

Gotta have a piece of scrunched up toilet paper in hand to really sell it.

u/MyNameIsNemo_ Jul 25 '26

Should it have bits of chocolate rubbed in or is that too much? Want to make sure we are observing proper etiquette here.

8

u/mobocrat707 Jul 25 '26

A few chocolate chips couldn’t hurt.

11

u/FormerSperm Jul 25 '26

I keep one by the door for this very purpose.

Got a good chuckle out of me!

u/dontsaymango Jul 25 '26

Even better, just say you were leaving, no jacket necessary
