Does anyone else find this odd?

The other day I went with my family to a house showing. We all remove our shoes when we entered (not uncommon). Everyone else wore socks, but I had bare feet as I had worn sandals. The realtor was asking us questions in different rooms, and kept asking my how the floors / carpets feel. I later asked her why she kept asking me that, and she said it was because I was the only one who was barefoot when everyone else was wearing socks, and that it was easier to feel the floors/carpets on bare feet, so my opinion was especially important to her. Does anyone else find this odd?

    Not odd at all. It seems perfectly logical to me that if you've got bare feet while looking at a house to purchase you might be checking out how the carpets feel. What stuns me is that you think this is worth commenting on, exactly how sensitive are you precious?

    Oh, you again. I thought your feet somehow got amputated when you fell asleep under the bridge by the railroad tracks.

    Your trollishous story is the same as it has been for years now. I do not believe a word of it because everyone knows trolls have hair growing on their feet so they could not possibly feel the flooring inside a dwelling.

    The realtor is all about making the sale and so they will find an angle to garner the opinions of prospective buyers. You would have stood out in be barefoot and so you were asked about the feeling of the carpet. Lush carpet can be a plus when selling a property.

    The only thing that's "odd" is your foot fetish that's been going on for the last two years.
