Spike ,'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I will never understand people that push the elevator button repeatedly, as if the force their exerting on button will be somehow pumped into the elevator mechanism and cause it to move faster.
It gets the electrons bouncing faster, causing the elevatormovejuice to come out of its bottle faster.
I will never understand people that push the elevator button repeatedly,
If I don't push it three times with each hand, my family will die.
You don't know. They MIGHT.
I don't think I ever push the button repeatedly in front of people, but if I'm by myself? I will sometimes push the button to express my feelings of "Why don't you get here faster you bastard my day has been bad enough already without having to sit here at the mercy of machinery."
If we had tHHGttG's existential elevators, I wouldn't have to push the damn button at all. Although I might have other problems.
I can understand hitting it again once, after a long while, if you're unsure the initial press took. I've done it myself. But when there are little lights inidicating what floor the elevators are on and indicate that the elevator is moving but has never once passed your floor, pushing the botton like a spastic monkey isn't going to get it there any faster.
It bugs me when i'm standing in front of the elevator, the light is on, therefore proving I have pushed the button, and some schmo comes along and pushes it again.
Because, obviously, I haven't pushed it right.
Well he should give Iguchi a consolation kiss anyway, since Ig came in 4th in the ROY balloting.
Feh, I say. You shouldn't be able to win Rookie of the Year if you're not a rookie.
I did know Ozzie was a kisser. I did not know that Carl Everett would be okay with being kissed, but perhaps Ozzie won him over (or is more circumspect with his kissing than reports imply).
He has to push it for himself; otherwise when the elevator arrives, it will only take you.

That's fun too.
Because, obviously, I haven't pushed it right.
Or maybe the schmo figures that girl-pushes don't count.
