some people...

start topics with these damn determiner phrases that don't talk about the topic whatsoever.

anyway, i was in the elevator today, and this guy went out of the elevator on the wrong floor.  he came back in acknowledging that he got out too early, and when the elevator door was closing, he pounded the door close button twice hoping it would close faster and make the situation better.  did he actually think the elevator's rate changes depending on how many times you push the button?

I understand.

I had to take a train into the city today.  The conductor announced the wrong stop.
But wasn't it fun to think you won the lottery, just for a second there???

My favorite is when you are waiting for the elevator, and you've pressed the down or up button, and it's clearly let, yet some asshat has to press it again.

If two people are on the elevator, and one person farts, both people know who did it.

Well, that's where we go a-ridin' into town, a whampin' and whompin' every livin' thing that moves within an inch of its life. Except the women folks, of course.

Stingray.


I hate those elevators where there's a lobby button, a ground floor button, and a basement button.  Why the heck don't they START at basement and start counting up for every floor OTHER than basement?

G1 and G2 for the two parking levels, or just A for the parking level below 1 and B for the one below A.  apparently, parking constructors don't talk to the building ones. 

i hate when you get on the elevator and notice there are more buttons lit than the amount of people present.

Yeah, sorry 'bout that.  I'm trying the patch to see if it'll help me quit

I hate when I get in an elevator and my choices are LL, G1, G2, B, etc. I am always like WTF I just want to get to the street! IMO "1" should always and forever be street level. Wanna get out of the building? Press 1. Why is this not a universal standard? Obviously I am too smart to understand this.

I never go inside buildings that have elevators. That's where They gas you and plant Thier tracking chips in you while you're out.

I just wait in the elevator until someone comes and pushes the right button.
Now in a tasty new flavour.

Do "they" know you're posting outside regular slacker hours?

I've been working on my CP while enjoying a few of Chippewa Falls' finest ;D

Oh, and trying to figure out how to devolve from v59 to v55.

I may have to buy some Rogaine in order to have some hair to pull out
