Dud gift your villagers some pants

[@biggestmcrfanever]

Did you kill jeremy

[@temmie9391]

Just turn the lights off in the main room.

[@Snow-of-the-Artic]

I’ve had this happen. Later caught Raymond outside his home sweeping. He talked about the importance of cleaning. He’s a little passive aggressive

[@hazzesanimations8212]

Damn he did u dirty

[@diamondkone]

I sold Raymond for 2 million bells; worth every penny.

[@Lord_of_commencement]

Just Raymond bein Raymond

How to emulate the vibe flipping someone off without hands. A guide by Raymond. Step one, do exactly this.

[@marsmallowgus]

Also remember that attempting to go out the door will get any villager to be like, "Oh, you're leaving? I'll get going then!" Then they'll leave and you can go out or go back to whatever you were doing, but this is a cool tip nonetheless!

[@nightowlspirit24]

But I dont wanna be mean to them :(

[@Al3x_1]

Yea, he mentioned that, he said “wait for them to leave or exit yourself”

[@bananabird69]

[@kieranismyfav]

@@nightowlspirit24 They’ll leave if you change clothes in front of them and be like: “Look at the time gtg”

[@ParsureArts]

I tried to get Marina to leave, but she said no because she just got there. Had to wait a few minutes aaaaaaa

[@StefPlaysGames]

i discovered this by accident recently when wendy tried to come over and screamed like i hadn’t just caught a flea off her that same day

[@superwhatevergamin9634]

Her flea pet. :( Itch, itch.

[@the_official_frogman]

the flea is literally the one thing I need to complete the entire critterpedia

Same cookie cane in and screamed AHHHHHHHHHHHH and was like wth

“When those pesky villagers will barge their way in unannounced” *literally every player when they’re bored*

Don't they say something then they knock or open the door? Or they knock first I can't remember.

Bye bye Jeremy 😞😞😞😔😞😞😞

[@shoadowolf]

RIP Jeremy

[@froglovereatscheesesad]

rip jeremy

[@LadyStitches]

😂😂😂

[@MrMeowstic7]

Nintendo should make it so that you can catch them in your house and donate them to the museum

[@Cornbread_]

I find it so funny when people complain about villagers walking into their house unannounced when we do the same thing to them 😭

[@EmmaETS00]

But there computer programed

[@silverbane8065]

They will also say its time to leave if you go into your storage for a moment and then come out again. most of the time when I go to get things in my home storage, when I come back out they are all "ok, gota delta...seeya and thanks for all the fun" and I'm like "ya only just got here? Ok...."

[@HeatherTD1]

Yeah

[@U.R.coolkid]

Animal crossing version of slapping your knee and saying, "Welp!"

[@TeperzRae]

Came here to say this too!!

[@Fumbuzzl07]

Respect Bob. It is an honor for him to visit you.

[@BlueBerry20071]

I too had a pet cockroach after finding this out. R.I.P Garry, you will be missed after you stepped in front of the dresser i was pushing.

[@Emily_reads]

RIP Garry

[@MintyAnimates_Official]

R.I.P Garry. You will be missed

[@evilume66]

Don’t accidentally squash Jeremy

[@jazzyjazz_the_artist7123]

They will also leave after you change your outfit in a closet or something that let's you change your clothes on

[@Aego384]

They respect your body intimacy, despite none of them wearing pants.

[@TylerLarew]

Bob is an OG. He'd be welcomed over my house any day.

[@princessthedog3661]

When they enter your house, you can also just try leaving your house, and they’ll leave too. Leaving your house as in exiting out the front door.

[@BakedBuddy]

He mentions that in the short

[@BearyBrawl]

They fixed it from lazy villagers entering your house they would say “Oh it looks like you already have a friend staying over ill get going now”

[@samyb4566]

I also heard that as soon as you interact with your wardrobe, they will tell you that they will leave.

[@Glassstation]

This happened to me today. Papi came and was so chill i wasn’t expecting it-

[@hollyjolly_lulu]

idk why, but carlos walks into my house and apparently he actually likes the cockroaches. he just stares at them and then kinda just walks over them.

[@MuffinSeeker]

Fun fact: In Japan, cockroaches aren't necessarily a symbol that a house is dirty or messy. Seeing multiple cockroaches in the open is more of a symbol that a house is abandoned or unused as cockroaches loathe activity and thrive in stagnation. That's why you get cockroaches in Animal Crossing when you haven't played the game in a while.

[@crazycatlady1292]

I’ve noticed while starting up into the game and you enter your house, it’ll usually be a few moments until a villager will enter your house. I just run into my washroom and wait a bit before they leave lol 😂

[@sophiafloor7887]

Cool! That’s a really cool stair design, how did you do that?

[@HeatherTD1]

Omg yeah, I think he used tile mats...

[@ursamajo.r]

Custom designs on the floor

[@Mr.GlitchInfinity]

When you accidentally step on Jeremy

[@est-fm9ui]

I remember everyone complaining that NH didn't have that feature and were like "uhhhh my villagers don't visist me anymore". Meanwhile I was glad they didn't and now I can't decorate my house in peace. Or just...chill at home. 🤣😂

[@Switch_Zone]

That's actually pretty useful.

[@Wolf_Tycoons]

I like it when they come in! It’s nice because all my villagers are fun to talk to and hang around with and I like being surprised!

[@djandr2830]

Also if you're in another room and hear knocking, just stay in that room and they'll eventually leave

[@IC0NICW31RD0_URL0CALFLOOF]

Fun fact you could also just go through the door like your leaving and they will say goodbye

[@Ilovetacos181]

Jeremy needs an Oscar

[@kitty0chan444]

I LOVE how the lazy villagers are chill They already have bug friends

[@Kristan_Phillips_Bacon_The_2st]

Almost every time I pull out my phone while a villager is in my house, they almost immediately leave when I put it away 🙃

[@sumemodude]

Simple solution is pressing down so you can redecorate your whole room with no interruptions plus it makes designing so much easier

[@notusingaccount326]

hes your pet until he accidentally gets stepped on

[@4.I.e.x.a]

I never realised how cute animal crossing cockroaches are until now

[@Brokeneardog]

When your villager that barges in the most is a lazy villager

[@The_V01dWillCaptureAll]

I like it when my villagers come in! I don’t do much in my house except change my villager’s look and when hopkins comes in it reminds me how much he cares about me and how much our friendship has grown (also he compliments my unorganised decor)

[@Fairy_NEKO]

Froggy has a pet cockroach called boots 😂

[@lunares_aey]

I find it so cute that lazy villagers don't be scared by roaches, it's a little detail but make the game even cooler

[@JadeAnnabelArt]

I was expecting 'if you try to leave, the villager will ask if you're leaving and go themselves' The cockroach thing seems like more work than it's worth.

[@SomePersonThatQuit]

This has happened to me sooo many times, I always stand infront of the villager, preventing them from entering and so they leave pretty quickly

[@kfscas]

It’s all fun and games until.. *_steps on Jeremy_* “ *JEREMY- NOOOOOO!* ”

[@Lucia-2107]

“Its rude to decorate when guests are over”

[@always-alicia]

I love how the Lazies react… though I wish they’d stay and have snack time with you and the bug.

[@Tsukasasfavouriteboyfriend]

Nintendo should really have a feature where lazy villagers come in your house anyway even if you have a cockroach, since they like bugs it would make more sense

[@ImFloof]

This reminded me of the time when I was placing something down in my house to see what it looked like, and coincidentally, I placed it right infront of the doorway and at the same time Marshal came in to visit. He couldn't move anywhere so he just left

[@tooburntoast]

At the end you should have said: JERRY NOO, and step on him

[@IhatEy0u_._0]

"It's rude to redecorate while a guest is in your house!"

[@nikolai5065]

You can also wait in a different room, and they'll think you aren't there!

[@SamTheMightyMan]

Snooty/Smug villagers: EW A ROACH Lazy Villager: Oh hey dude, you are visiting with them too??

[@elliefx_]

i just leave and then there like “what a great idea i should leave too!!”

[@OkCuh]

Dude thats an amazing floor I was just wondering how you have small stairs but it’s just a pattern!!!

[@Ines-bl5kv]

You can also just push the villager to the exit door, that way you stay in but they go

[@Ryversongfan]

Also if you pull out your phone or inventory they will leave quickly

[@MewmiNyan]

another thing that also works is when the villager comes in is to completely stop moving. I found out they leave very quickly this way when I got mad and set down my switch, then picked it up like 30 seconds later and they said they were gonna leave.

[@strawberryslush5500]

“Huh, Jeremy where are you? *looks under his shoe* JEREMY NO!”

[@heartss4.m1ls]

2 other ways to do this is.. 1. ignore the dialogue and they will think since you're not answering, you're not there. 2. go into your wardrobe for a while. Once you exit it, they'll say something along the lines of "oh I've been here too long.. bye! "

[@quantumtabbylargo7457]

Honestly I like when they come over, It’s nice. They’re probably also drowning cause my entire house is water-themed and I use fishtanks as my tables.

[@rocktoo7603]

Lazy villagers really go “oh you have cockroaches? Cool.”

[@pastelpirate9906]

Your telling me I can keep villagers out, but still keep Stitches as a best friend??? PERFECT.

[@gukssb702]

Fun fact, when i figured this out i made my main room a plant room to make it not as gross

[@karissakerley9072]

I will never kill a Crock roach ever again

[@francisv3nts]

‘They’re acting like they don’t realise they’re walking around the island with no pants on’ 😭

[@D00MF0XZ]

'Hi, cockroach! Hey, if you already have friends over, maybe we ought do this later'💀

[@jellypie7682]

The roach in my irl bedroom😏I do the same thing

[@Jesus_Crist]

My favorite villager litteraly comes in and 2 seconds later he Goes back out but also gives you the option to let him stay longer.

[@cheese2587]

The villagers feel the same way

[@BubblesKittens]

I think you can go in another room too if you have one. and they’ll see that you aren’t there and just leave. (I can’t remember I haven’t played for a while)

[@papercut931]

I had sherb come over after he said “the cockroaches in my house are getting a little noisy” and when he came over and saw my cockroaches was kinda excited and said “why did you never tell me you have cockroach friends too?!”

[@c1rcu267]

The little roach spirit🤣😭

[@Stackloadofpotatoes]

I’m on the top top of the hill and there’s no stairs or anything up to my house but STILL out of nowhere villagers come in to my house

[@rhijones382]

Does that also work with villagers like Punchy that mention loving bugs?

[@planymphia]

Yep! All lazy villagers like bugs and he says that in the video (I think)

[@zigazav1]

@@planymphia I recall Drago on my island talks often about the bugs in his house. He's also said to me before, that his HHA report comments that he has too many bugs in his house, which is interesting, since before getting that dialog from him, I'd give him bugs frequently, typically once on most days that are common bugs I don't feel like it's worth walking over to get them sold. He, btw, calls me his snack buddy. He also refers to me by the nickname "Burrito"

[@85eMCat]

Pet roch!?!ewww!

[@babyrara3730]

Closing the blinds always work for me

[@woomydayz]

I just go in another room and they just go away lol

[@zarchsount3506]

When you have lazy villagers to match you:

[@kittyloveswinter4228]

If my village "chabwick" comes to my house and i have a roach he'll probably be like "hey a new friend" or something

[@zhengwenyu1587]

Really wish there’s a toggle option for this. Like “Do Not Disturb” or “Ask for permission”

[@aspenm2576]

They usually also leave when i sit on the piano and hop off

[@madisonm498]

I love how we were so excited about this but now it’s a nuisance!

[@Mjt318]

It's a little hypocritical to get mad about the villagers barging into your house when the player also barges into their houses, it's actually really funny

[@crayonvr1314]

Oh i just kept the roach as a pet. So thats why my friends leave all the time also his name is Frederick the 17th

[@Physxo_Izumi]

My island is mostly lazy villagers so it won’t do that much

[@arelissanchez2270]

I like having the roaches keeps them away 😂

[@the_official_sherb]

did bob just say i love chops💀

[@miguelooo6812]

I didn’t know that💀💀💀💀💀 that’s it bobs not my dreamie BUNNIE IS

[@missmechanicalpencil]

or if you change clothes in a refrigerator right after they will say that it’s time for them to get going

[@Cubic_l.l]

Everyone: eww 🤢 Lazy: oh hi little critters.

[@irisVBsocials]

Honestly I just push them out, and they get the gist of it

[@chengnokyin]

Jeremy is a nice guy, we must not step him 🤣

[@Austinator920]

I just barricade my door with a stack of those things you see construction workers sit on in movies

[@rosjivenus1355]

I usually sit on a couch and do nothing Some seconds later I get off and they immediatly say "it's time for me to go"

[@infinikki]

You can also just open a dresser, select change outfit, and exit, and the villager will say they're leaving. Basically you threaten to get naked and they'll leave out of shame

[@XcitedSituation]

Stitches wouldn’t care so I’m pretty much in a loose loose battle

[@urfavfoundling1137]

One time a villager came into my house while I was in another room, and they kept calling for me but I didn’t come out so they just left lol. Honestly pretty accurate to my real life

[@SilentDecepticon]

Excuse you. Bob is ALWAYS welcome. He could move into my house if he wants.

[@lucypie09]

They usually come in my house when I’m in another room because they’ll assume I’m not home so I’ll just stay in the room until they leave but it still sucks that I can’t leave until THEY leave.

[@Flam1ngMagma]

I wish I could catch one. They actually made them look so damn cute

[@punnup3452]

I remember I was decorating my house once and a villager visited and I was so surprised since I didn't know that happened and I ended up playing some music that I thought they would like and hang out with them while they were there

[@Cat-the-dragon]

Usually when this happens I just put my switch on sleep mode, take like a thirty minute break, and then come back.

[@LostFoundling]

I had a villager come in while I was decorating and I interacted with their framed photo. The went "Aww that's so sweet" and left. It was the only time that interacting with it made them leave but I thought it was hilarious at the time

[@arial-s]

You can also keep your lights off and they'll assume you're not home

[@sealsake]

Nah cause I was on a friend’s island talking to Bob and he said something like “the bugs always get excited when HHA comes” or whatever and I was like lmao same bob, same

[@gypsywoman9140]

Wouldn't this negatively impact our HHA score?

[@papaelf420]

If someone invites their self in, you can walk out. They will leave, and your player won't leave alongside them.
