I am intermittently mediocre with empathy. I just got all fired up with the behavior of a tourist and my wife suggested i was maybe a culture thing.

So, are there any cultures where leaving the door to an air conditioned cat cafe open is a reasonable thing to do? I am pretty sure this is a universally shit behavior?

Edit: I love the replies. People don't need to agree with me- I posted to broaden my view. But I love the people who can't or won't actually read or who want to troll showing their dumb faces so they can be blocked. About 6 more knuckleheads I'll never hear from again! :)

EDIT 2: omg probably 20 blocked now! Let's go chums, somebody else make a comment about my wife/sex/value as a human! My block button is all warmed up and deleting you now means I don't need to do it later!
Answer summary
The post discusses the frustration of a user regarding a tourist leaving the door to a cat cafe open, which raised concerns about air conditioning efficiency and the potential for cats to escape. The conversation sparked various opinions on whether this behavior is culturally acceptable in different regions and reflected broader themes about empathy and social norms. Many responses emphasize the need for awareness of one's actions in shared spaces, while others question the validity of overly stressing about such situations.

nice try dipshit. Big difference between "hey man, calm down maybe the guy was in a hurry" and "I guess your wife doesn't like sex".

A cat cafe, so it means there are cats inside that people can pet and maybe adopt while enjoying a coffee and snacks?

the AC is one thing, but leaving the door open means the cats could escape to the street and that would be the biggest issue! Yes, pretty bad behavior!

At least he made a somewhat clever turn of your phrase. The other d-bags showing up just can't wait to attack you for daring to voice your opinion.

so, maybe you are on to something. Are you saying there are billions of people in the world who exist in cultures where it isn't expected that they would close a door that they opened? The aircon and cat cafe are just for imagery.
Oliver ********

@Jack ***************
I'm not sure about billions for that, as it's more difficult to estimate than the population by climate, but I'm sure (based on my previous business experience) that there are many people who don't think it's important that doors are kept closed and/or assume that doors that need to be closed will close automatically

hmmm well I'm in Thailand and I know they are places that leave the door open. I'm talking about people walking up to a building (or out of) and the door is closed, they open it, and then do not close it. I am not suggesting the world should have only closed doors.

Your reward is....

To reconfirm this to yourself, you can sing this song 4 times a day

......

It must have been cold there in my shadow

To never have sunlight on your face

You were content to let me shine, that's your way

You always walked a step behind

So I was the one with all the glory

While you were the one with all the strength

A beautiful face without a name for so long

A beautiful smile to hide the pain

Did you ever know that you're my hero

And everything I would like to be?

I can fly higher than an eagle

For you are the wind beneath my wings

It might have appeared to go unnoticed

But I've got it all here in my heart

I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it

I would be nothing without you

Did you ever know that you're my hero?

You're everything I wish I could be

I could fly higher than an eagle

For you are the wind beneath my wings

Did I ever tell you you're my hero?

You're everything, everything I wish I could be

Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle

For you are the wind beneath my wings

'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings

Oh, the wind beneath my wings

You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings

Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high

Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings

Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings

Fly, fly, fly high against the sky

So high I almost touch the sky

Thank you, thank you

Thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings

It is indeed not good, but neither is getting angry & confrontational.

I'd hope the cat cafe had an automatic closing mechanism installed on the door in question.

You cannot rely on every single one of the masses of people coming in and out of a cafe throughout a working day to always remember to pull the door shut behind them.

Its an extremely vulnerable system indeed if all it takes to cause a major problem is for one person out of the hundreds if not thousands of visitors to be in a hurry/absent-minded/texting while walking/having a bad day, and thus not pull the door completely shut.
Jack ****************
Jack ****************
OP
@Jiji **********
no automatic doors, but they do have an informal airlock system with the cats behind another door. Cats often get out of the first door.

But regardless of that specific risk vector if you are an adult and a door to a business or house is closed and you open it to go inside- you should shut the door behind you. And the "distracted walker" excuse might give you a free pass- but not two.

This post was a genuine test because what do I know- maybe people in Greece (wherever) leave doors open for luck or some shit. Pretty sure the guy was just garbage

After living in Thailand, I can now see where you are coming from. But, honestly I would have been that tourist. I come from Scotland where aircon is practically non existent and I didn't realise air con works better when doors are kept shut. I'm not a stupid person but due to not experiencing air con I was ignorant to how it worked. So maybe just consider it was not done from thoughlessness but from totally innocent ignorance.

I have no problem with open doors. I do think coming through and open door and closing it is slightly less bad, but also a weird move. I get people can be creatures of habit and this isn't a hanging offense. But I wanted to humor my wife and be open to "maybe in Croatia closed doors in the daytime are considered bad luck so nobody closes doors except at night" or some shit- maybe the guy thought he was spreading goodness. I doubt it, no replies have indicated such... But I'm still loosely open to the idea.

I don't deserve much of one. I was standing within arm's reach. And I wasn't any more irate at the first instance than I was by the cafe in general (no, I am not a cat cafe person but life is full of disappointments) it was when he walked back out and did it again that I was appalled.

Also, I was only irritated for a few minutes and then just sort of bemused. People seem to think the point of the post is the actual point. I just provided narrative structure. The point was, and remains, is there a culture where this would not be a dick move. I suspect not. Not that I think it is a huge transgression- but it is *a* transgression. Much worse are the people who read poorly (or don't care) and post these wild hate filled replies. These tragic fucks go around making the world worse every day- maybe the jackass with the door was just distracted. So, I make sure every assclown commenter gets a piece and then I send them into the void where they can never bother me again. It's cathartic- like weeding. :)

What is a cat cafe and why does it require air con?
Jiji ***********
Jiji ***********
@Nick ***********
A cat cafe is a cafe which has lots of cats, which are enclosed in the cafe & cannot leave. It typically sells snacks you can feed them while you drink your coffee.

I never go to such places, even though I love cats. The cats are often over-pampered, over-bred, and don't want to be there, only interested in visitors if they've got snacks.

Instead of cat cafes, I prefer a cafe which has a resident cat or two, who can come and go as they please, who enjoys being around humans & just likes the attention/scritchies.

not rules. Rules are for the lowest common denominator. You make rules for people who will act poorly if you don't police them. Frankly I think they should just be fed to the hogs. We don't need rules, we need people who think and care.
