My sick humor? I like #25!!! Actually this list reminds me of how as teens my sister and I used to get hysterically laughing the minute we entered occupied elevators together. The silence and lack of eye contact just spun us right out of control. And the best part was the fellow passengers still avoiding eye contact and pretending nothing was happening LOL

Please don’t ask me how long I just wasted doing this. It did appeal to my twisted sense of humour though.
An alternative take on fun things to do in an elevator.

Ohhh, should have read this one a couple of days before – yesterday and today I spent a lot of time in the elevator, rushing from my hotel room to the conference hall up and down about 20 times per day… This would have been fun. And everybody would be still talking about me… I could have done a scientific field research, trying out all methods, you know, systematically, taking notes of the responses and stuff… Shit, what a great opportunity I have missed. Next time, I guess.
