Here is yet another story where a dude has to learn the hard way what happens when you don't clean up after yourself! One person in the comments section of this Reddit thread said it best: "It's easier to retrain an old dog than man of any age."

This story is further proof of that fact. This woman moved in with her boyfriend and quickly discovered that they have very different conceptions of what it means for something to be "clean." The most egregious act on the boyfriend's part, though, was that he would literally put his dirty socks under the couch instead of in the hamper like an adult. Well, after a while, the girlfriend had enough and decided to train her dogs to go after the socks. Eventually, they ripped apart his favorite pair, which had me sad for a millisecond before shrugging my shoulders. His fault!
