If only we had some sort of technology to let us know that someone is at the door.
Ring the doorbell, or knock like a normal fucking person.
I found that in recent antisocial times, more and more people elect to ignore doorbells and not even check the door unless they specifically know someone they expected is there. They just act like nobody is home
Why in the world do people do that? Are they that damn afraid of each other?
I live online, no one I know lives anywhere close enough to casually visit me, let alone just pop over unannounced. If someone rings my doorbell they either want to sell me something or are dropping a package off. Either way, why go to the door?
My door is just really far from my bed, and opening it to then see someone I don't want to see is just too much effort. And everybody I want to see knows to text ahead.
Your neighbor telling you that you left your car's window open. Or you have a leakage/broken pipe/your roof is on fire/something is wrong that is advised to be taken care sooner rather than later. There can be legit reasons why people are trying to warn you in your home who don't know your online handles.
They have my phone number.
How is it a problem?
It means he's too much of a damn shut in and that's not healthy.
Lol
