if it’s lit, it’s coming, be patient

morons, new york city Add comments

Have you ever stood waiting for an elevator and the button’s already lit, only to have someone come along and press the button again? I see it all the time in my office building, and it makes me “tsk”. I often see people press it repeatedly like you would when playing Track & Field - they must think that the more times they press it, the elevator car will think that they’re more important and rush down to the ground floor, passing all others on the way down.

[note to all those that press the button more than once, or when it's already lit]

Knock it off. If you don’t have OCD you have no excuse. You look ridiculous when you do that, and everyone is secretly laughing at you, and blogging about you… [cough]…

    Reminds me of that classic moment in “Speed,” where the guy does the lit button push, and the other guy makes a comment… then the elevator gets sabotaged and the smart aleck says, “Geez, what button did you push…”

    By the way, I wish telecommuting were an option, although I’d probably spend the day blogging, surfing MySpace, and playing MVP Baseball on my PC anyway (as I am still PSP-less….)

    sorry you’re lugging yourself through the city buddy, and let me know when you get the PSP - I’d recommend you join a very cool PSP site that I frequent… and the Admin over there does a WICKED good PSP Podcast:
