^^i would do this

I just got back from a dream attack (sunny successor), Friday, 27 January 2012 15:04 (fourteen years ago)

I do this as my school bc I never know whether both elevators are working.

Today someone was running for our elevator and I went to push door open and instead pushed door closed and felt terrible.

I am the "never mind" person that balks at a semi-crowded elevator. It's mainly claustrophobia. The more people in an elevator, the more anxious I get, even if there's room.

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 27 January 2012 16:32 (fourteen years ago)

Don't worry, Jenny--I think "Door close" is a fake button in almost every single elevator.

one little aioli (Laurel), Friday, 27 January 2012 16:33 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah, BUT there were a lot of ppl in the elevator and I was really laying on that button to get the door for her so it looked like I was actually trying to close it in her face. My guilt is that I could have opened the door of I pushed the correct button and also I looked like a horrible person.

People who say "i-r-l" irl; etc.

WHY DO YOU HATE RAINBOWS? (Austerity Ponies), Friday, 27 January 2012 16:53 (fourteen years ago)

Ha ha. I have started saying "tbh" irl.

one little aioli (Laurel), Friday, 27 January 2012 16:56 (fourteen years ago)

tbh in full form isn't much better, but it's a few levels less annoying than starting a sentence with "actually"

WHY DO YOU HATE RAINBOWS? (Austerity Ponies), Friday, 27 January 2012 17:02 (fourteen years ago)

I don't care what you do re: elevators so long as you don't take it for only one floor when you appear to be physically able to take the stairs that happen to be right next to the elevator.

(hangs head)

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 27 January 2012 17:06 (fourteen years ago)

"tbh" is only one less syllable than "to be honest"!

I'm not going to start carrying a cane to make you feel better about my elevator use.

Not to be a bitchorama, but don't assume you know what the health needs of a person are just by looking at him/her.

gonna give her the old fuquay-varina (Jenny), Friday, 27 January 2012 17:11 (fourteen years ago)

Sorry, making ppl assumptions about strangers' health and getting indignant based on those assumptions is one of my big pet peeves. Not trying to pick a fight or nothing.

I just like riding empty elevators

lololol

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 27 January 2012 17:28 (fourteen years ago)

I'll take the elevator one floor sometimes. Depends on how much I've damaged my legs running that week. And for the most part I look able bodied.

Jeff, Friday, 27 January 2012 17:29 (fourteen years ago)

I don't understand why I enjoyed that cartoon.

WHY DO YOU HATE RAINBOWS? (Austerity Ponies), Friday, 27 January 2012 17:30 (fourteen years ago)

I stopped buggin over able-bodied-looking people taking the elevator one floor b/c like Jenny said, appearances are deceptive, plus really, if an a gold medalist in Olympic stair climbing decides to take the elevator 1 flight up or down, it's no big deal to me.

My wife is trying to start "fwiw" as an irl thing, fwiw.

jaymc, Friday, 27 January 2012 19:57 (fourteen years ago)

She's actually saying "eff doubleyou eye doubleyou" or pronouncing "fwiw" as a word like Madeline Kahn in Young Frankenstein?

I thought this was America!

Maybe eff-dub-eye-dub (xp)

I just got back from a dream attack (sunny successor), Friday, 27 January 2012 21:41 (fourteen years ago)

Don't we already have enough dubstep subgenres already?

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Friday, 27 January 2012 21:44 (fourteen years ago)

the second "already" was for double the emphasis and/or ruining my joke

Just walked out of a luggage shop because the luggage proprietor kept chasing us around the luggage displays shoving luggage in our faces

Autumn Almanac, Friday, 27 January 2012 23:53 (fourteen years ago)

i was crossing the street today at a marked intersection and some douchebag who was speeding actually honked at me like i was in his way. it was like "please stop doing this legal thing so i can continue to do my illegal thing."

The former!

tell her to stop

Number None, Monday, 30 January 2012 19:34 (fourteen years ago)

Well, I think the point is that it's absurd.

jaymc, Monday, 30 January 2012 19:57 (fourteen years ago)

people who pluralize random words because they think they're fucking lolcats ("Oh NOES! Please to be sharpenings my pencil for this exam!")

Calling San Francisco "San Fran" or "Frisco"...it makes me super cringey

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:05 (fourteen years ago)

San Francisco takes too long to say, change your name city.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:06 (fourteen years ago)

>:(

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:10 (fourteen years ago)

Speaking of San Francisco, about 15 years ago I started hearing people refer to my city, Little Rock, as THE ROCK.

Makes me think of either Alcatraz or that wrestler guy. Please. We don't need to replace two syllables with one just for saving breath and we certainly don't need to macho up the capital city of the 27th largest state in the union.

pplains, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:12 (fourteen years ago)

Some people in Toronto call it "T dot." This is an abbrevation of an abbrevation (T.O.) :(

she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:17 (fourteen years ago)

ugh

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:20 (fourteen years ago)

We have a new building at work called "Beaver Creek" that I am going to refer to as "the beav"

mh, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:21 (fourteen years ago)

ha i was just wondering why chicago is nicknamed "chi town" with the "chi" mispronounced as "shy," then i realized if it were pronounced correctly it would essentially code as "shit town"

congratulations (n/a), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:26 (fourteen years ago)

There is a park here in Sac called Goethe Park. Locals call it "Gatey" Park. wtf

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 30 January 2012 20:27 (fourteen years ago)

We in the office saw an AP story the other day that abbreviated "Texas" to "Tex." and everyone here got irrationally angry.

"This has to be a mistake!" said my managing editor.

pplains, Monday, 30 January 2012 20:29 (fourteen years ago)

"ksass"

My dad refused to switch to 2 letter state abbreviations.
