I live in Ontario and taking off shoes is the norm here.

When I was younger, I noticed that no one ever takes their shoes off in TV shoes and movies. Some people even put their feet up on couches and tables with shoes on. Scandalous! I always thought it was for pacing (who wants to watch someone take their shoes off?).

I didn't learn that not taking your shoes off is the norm in real life in some places until I was an adult. Although the reasons given above make sense, I still find it strange. I'd feel terrible dragging the dirt/wetness/stickiness from my shoes through someone's house.

I understand that the payments received by the family are now considered to have been obtained fraudulently because he is alive, and that the payees should be reimbursed. However, the fraud was not committed by the recipients. And ordering them to repay it would only punish them further, while letting him off the hook.

I think a fair and appropriate course of action would be to declare him legally alive, then force him to repay the funds directly to the government and the insurance companies. Then the responsible party is being held accountable and the innocent victims, his family, not only wouldn't have to repay the money, but also wouldn't have to go after him for owed child support.

It's the next tortuous bookcase and bed assembly device devised by Ikea to make the lives of university students hell.

It looks like a weird aquatic sock monkey. And I find sock monkeys super creepy, so thanks for the nightmares!

I also think they are the price flags from old timey cash registers.

The article says they're welcome to stay if they split into smaller groups, but they refused. I don't think it's inappropriate to ask a large noisy group to split into smaller groups in a public library, where people often go for a quiet place to work or read.

If this were a group of noisy teenagers, I doubt we'd be seeing the same outrage. From the point of view of the other patrons of the library, a large noisy group is still a large noisy group regardless of their age or activities.
