NaBloPoMo - Day 21

One of the things on my list of little things that annoy me from yesterday's post was people stopping by unannounced. It reminded me of a funny video clip I saw of comedian Sebastian Maniscalco talking about the difference between the doorbell ringing 20 years ago compared to today. It's so true, although I think what he talks about was more like 40 or more years ago instead of 20. Either way, I think it's funny - enjoy. :)

  1. This was hilarious and SO true. I don't know anyone that just drops by now, but it was very common 30-40 years ago. If someone does ring the doorbell it's probably someone selling things and I don't open the door.

  2. Lot of changes in 20 years for sure.We didn't used to let everyone know when we going to stop by. Sometimes, we'd just go for a ride and stop to visit relatives. Back then most women were home and didn't go to work. I'll say one thing, no one ever stopped by when the house was clean.

  4. That was so funny! I'm sad that doesn't happen anymore. I'm still ok with drop in guests, but unfortunately, if the doorbell rings it's usually someone trying to sell something!

  5. That was funny! Times have definitely changed. We used to visit with each other way more than we do these days.

  8. We used to have Sara Lee cakes! (not always for company though) When my doorbell rings, it's often a salesperson for windows, solar panels or internet provider.

  9. We rarely get a drop by visit from just one of our neighbors. I guess we see them out just enough in good weather, we catch up a bit and we are all done.

  10. I’ve seen that before and it is SO true! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to hide over the years. Now we have security cameras and I can just look at my phone! I have 2 Do NOT Knock signs and nobody pays attention to them.🙄

  12. :-))) When my doorbell rings, it's often the postman who wants to leave the neighbours' Amazon packages by me...
