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
To be fair, the vast majority of the time someone is at my door that I'm not expecting, they're trying to sell me shit I don't care about. I do not answer my door.
I get mad if you set the dogs off lol
one of the perks of living in an apartment, the outer door is locked so if someone's knocking on my door it all but has to be the neighbours and they're not gonna bother me for no reason.
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.
Maybe some people have this weird technology where they put things in or over their ears to hear only what's in the device they're texting through and can't hear any outside noises.
