Robes and pajamas are meant to STAY in the room. Lounge around in your room if you like wearing underwear or sleeping clothing. Gym wear is meant to STAY in the gym. Food is to be consumed in the lounge by the member and registered guests - that prevents excess quantities of food from being shared with others who are not entitled to it!
If you think my opinions are harsh, so be it. We have evolved into a society of spoiled brats (at least in the US) and now we are seeing the consequences.
Not sure what this post has to do with people being spoiled brats, other than the fact that you sound like one if you are that bothered by what other people are wearing to "enjoy light snacks and beverages and continental breakfast" (Marriott's words). But then again, the DC area is full of spoiled brats so why am I not surprised.
Please link where there are stated rules about dress and where the food from the CL should be consumed. If there actually were rules, I'm sure most people would follow them. But for the most part there aren't (except at some individual properties), so no need to start making up your own and acting like you're superior because you dress "professionally" to eat cheese and crackers.
