They practically ring the doorbell.

We practically lived there in the summer. Nobody had air conditioning. It was hot and it was the place to be.

If the door bell rings and you go to open the door and the phone rings at the same time and you end up picking the phone, before opening the door, you made a false move. And if you also start talking on the phone, you made two false moves

I was awakened by the doorbell at about 4:30 in the morning. It was the paper carrier and she wanted to let me know that the glass had been broken on my van.

Knock the door or ring the bell but don't ever push it! Be gentle!

I don't understand why you have to wear a wedding ring to warn people off. You should be able to be faithful to that person without anything on your body to show that you are with someone.
