Mistook a raccoon for a bear once.

I used to think a friendly neighbor was a plus during a showing. But after seeing a similar 'helpful' moment totally derail a sale, I changed my mind. That kind of surprise is the last thing you need when trying to close a deal.

That's honestly a genius fix. So it was purely the texture change that did it. Have you tried moving the rug BACK since then, just to see if the habit is truly broken or if the rug is now doing all the heavy lifting?

Yeah, oscar471 has a point about paying to keep good guides around. I was on the fence about this too. In my case, I used a lot of free stuff to learn the basics, but I hit a wall. Paying for one good session from someone who really knew their stuff saved me months of trying to figure it out alone. Your mileage may vary, but that small fee felt worth it because the help was direct and solved my specific problem. The free stuff is great for the community, but sometimes a paid guide is the tool you actually need.

Love how you turn judgment into performance art, ever tried toe taps under the table?
