Some of them, not all of them.

Yeah, some of them are totes ugly. Ugly people don't have any right to try to feel attractive or self-confident, but sexy people should dress as sexily as possible at all times.

Jeph obviously drew it like that, because a normal left-hinged, inward-opening front door would have hidden the (surprisingly sparsely-filled for a two-bookworm household) bookshelf, and eliminated the Chaucer joke. But yes, I don't think I've ever seen a front door that opened outwards.
A fine "brick joke" as someone pointed out earlier, and it's nice to see new-art Pizza Girl.

Two broke bookworms.
There's always the library, but they like it when you return those.

There are actually outward swinging doors that have hinges designed to not be able to open it by taking out the pins. Either by having irremovable pins or safety studs built into them. Safety studs interlock the two hinges together when the door is fully closed so that even without the pins, its impossible to remove the door.
Yes, this is related to my job and is why I know these things. >_>
jwhouk:
It also could be that the door isn't the main door...
