To expect people to be dressed if they've invited people round

[Exileinengland1999]

Just that really- got invited round for Xmas drinks at some friends at 4pm and they were in their pjs and stayed like that for a 2 hour visit - Aibu to feel uncomfortable with the extreme casual-ness of it all. Even my kids asked why they were in their pjs

Yep, considering the op never came back with details we've done a lt of arguing over nothing!

True zaza I smell a DM sized rat!

This thread is hysterical, only on MN would people be called grimy, chaotic, lazy and accused of shit behaviour for wearing clothes of softer fabrics.

I do think there is a divide between people who see pyjamas as what you wear in bed and those who are talking about relaxed or leisure wear.

I wouldn't host guests intentionally in leisure wear but we have people constantly popping in and out and so I might be found in a sweat top and some slouchy trousers. I don't think that makes me a shit person living in chaos

"Wookiecookies

That could have been me cara except I dont wear PJ's out of the house or when entertaining for that matter for the elventy billionth time maybe it was the OPs host? wink"

Omg - another of your random apostrophes.

This will be in the daily mail tomorrow

I'm more shocked at how often you all have time to shower and change bed sheets?! I certainly can only muster a morning shower *most days. And can't tell you when I washed my sheets last. But atleast I don't hang around in pjs.

OMG-Cara, another one of your pedantic moot points.

A sweaty top? Yeah, figures...

It depends on your lifestyle and how often you have sex. I have to shower twice a day as I am mucking out animals. I don't work and therefore washing the bedding is no big deal. I often have a shower to freshen up before sex if I haven't managed to have one in the early evening

Philoslothy. I agree, on all counts!

I couldn't sit at someone's house who was wearing bed attire that they had been wearing since the night before and without underwear, and unshowered. It is minging - I think that's the expression. I am funny about other people's hygeine.

It is minging, manky, rank and GRIM. Lots is posters find it GRIM.

Lots of

But the cat lick is apparently just washing one's face?

As I said, DH calls it a whore's bath, so... yeah. Who knows?

Btw, sprite in wine? It's quite popular amongst certain people (they're primarily women) in Switzerland. But whyyyy? The Italian in me cringes. That's just a sad thing to do...

Watch it Cara, the grammar slipped there.

Are there posters who have said that they wear the pyjamas in the day that they have worn all night and then invite people round?

Most people who say that they wear leisure wear or pyjamas home say that they do the following;
Have a shower
Put on clean pyjamas or leisure wear

Just like other people have a shower and put on clean more formal clothes.

The only difference is in fabric and formality - it may not be your choice but it isn't manky etc

Hardly grammar, Wookie - merely a typographical error.

Oh dear God Cara, apologies for trying to lighten the tone with some tongue in cheek humour.

pj's

Don't you mean lighten the mood?

What is the difference between lounge wear and pyjamas?

Maybe this thread should be moved to Pedants' Corner.

No, I meant lighten the tone.

I am genuinely surprised that people would stay in the pj's when they know someone is coming round. I got embarrassed when I need to answer the door to the postman in my pj's and it's after 9am so much so that I always pick up the baby and take her with me so I can look like maybe I've been up all night and not just the lazy slob that I like to be in the morning.

My in-laws wear pjs at home and I find it really uncomfortable but I'm not a true guest so it's not the same. I don't show my uncomfortableness and i don't mind as such, i just always feel over dressed!

I was beginning to wonder if it had been moved there already ZaZa and I had somehow missed the memo.

I think pyjamas fir answering the door is a step up for me.

I'm usually in a towel. Fuck knows how they postie always times it for when I'm in the bath but I swear he messaged me sign for stuff on purpose...

Would I intentionally host a party in jammies? No.

Would I give a fuck if friends or family choose to wear jammies of I'm. Popping over? No. I do not judge people for their clothing choices. If they were dirty or smelly I'd worry about their mental health obviously but let's face it none of us really know if they have work that suit 3 days running or if their jammies are clean on 20 mins ago. Unless of course factors such as greasy hair or obviously dirt or grime or smell etc made it obvious in which case I'd care less about their clothing and more about how they were.

Considering most my jammies cover more than my clothes do and I wear a sports bra under jammies if for whatever reason I'm wearing them befire "bedtine" I'd he surprised if people cared.

FYI my underwear gets changed alot as do my jammies so no chance of grim smelly jammies here
