We'll let you back in if you start isolating (ed: insulating ofc) your houses and get rid of the carpets in the bathrooms. It's a new century.

    I haven't seen a carpeted bathroom in about 30 years, so I think we're ok on that front!

    I recently went to a place on Dartmoor that my mate is renting, and the thick shag pile carpet went up the side of the bath, let alone around the toilet. It was really not ok

    But just think how quickly the carpet dries your feet when you get out of the bath. It's thick shag, so for extra convenience, you can just roll around on the floor to get dry all over.

    I'm sorry, I made myself uncomfortable just thinking that, so I had to share it.

    You laugh now, but let's see who's laughing when your house burns down because you don't have a permanently moist bathroom carpet to smother the fire. When I get a break from coughing due to all the mold, I'll laugh like a maniac!

    One of my friends moved to a flat in Greenwich just the other ... hmm ... ok so it was 25 years ago, but anyway, he proudly showed off his posh flat with carpeted bathroom :D

    My wife's parents have a carpeted bathroom. Fucking animals.

    Fucking animals.

    Oh wow. I guess the carpet is easier on your knees or something? Like for smaller livestock? And then the sink is right there.
