Do you tip-toe while walking in houses?

I walk on my tip-toes when i'm not wearing shoes, i don't know why. Parents would take me to the doc because they thought i had a tense HCL tendon, but im fine. I have no idea why i do it. i keep my heel like a good inch off the floor or so.


?????


It wasn't until years later that i found out i was an ultra-ninja 2000
 
no, except one part of my room which is really creaky and if theres someone downstairs in the guest room, they can hear it
 
Now that you mention it I do when I come out of the shower..for some reason not known to me. Also have had some terrible toe accidents doing that too. Not a safe time for me...😕
 
I do it also, even when I'm in other peoples' houses. My girlfriend is a light sleeper and parts of our floor are really noisy as well, so I've learned to walk briskly but quietly.
 
i do it, but not to be quiet (floors are carpet over concrete) but to keep my feet cleaner as to not track as much crap from the rest of the house (dirty floor, tons of pets) into my room.

Now that I think about it, yeah I kinda do. I walk really quietly when I'm not wearing shoes, and I HATE people who walk hard & loud with their heels all the time.

Same here... it's annoying, especially when you're on the floor below someone like that.
 
Nope don't have to I just naturally move around quietly. It's kindof funny because I sneak up on people without meaning to and scare the sh!t out of them just by saying something. And I'm not easy to miss at about 6'2".
