> [@kushiel](#): > > I have no idea where those places are, other than somewhere in Spain because you’re **Nava**. 😃 I think people were talking about things like a Canadian asking what to do in New York, or a Dubliner asking what to do in London. Dude, everyone in North America knows what kind of attractions are in New York. Like greenery? Central Park! Like shopping? Fifth Avenue! Like live entertainment? Broadway! Given your username, should I assume that being tossed from the top of the Sagrada Familia’s tallest tower repeatedly would actually please you? It’s only got to be on the top-10 Most Recognizable Buildings in the World list… _throws Sagrada Familia touristy reproductions at **kushiel** , being careful to miss with any hard ones because Hurting People Ain’t Rite Except If They Have Told You They Like It_ > [@WhyNot](#): > > Y’know, I always hear about this one being overdone. I think I’ve referred to it as overdone before. But now that I think about it…I can’t remember it in actuality. It’s something that was “old and overdone” before I started lurking here, kind of like how Saturday Night Live always used to be funnier. > > So when was the last time/how often does it \*really \*come up? It wasn’t the main topic, but I’m guessing **Pleonast** does wear shoes around the house: > [@Why are beds elevated?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/why-are-beds-elevated/613632/44): > > Well, I’m open to being corrected. Do you not wear shoes indoors, so to not track outside dirt inside? Do the bathrooms have slippers, so to not track bathroom dirt to the rest of the home? Are floors wiped with a damp cloth daily? Because that is what many Koreans do (or at least the ones I know). Posted Feb 23, 2012.
