Absolutely nothing, because I wouldn’t want a stranger to talk to me in an elevator and I was raised to do unto others.
I feel awkward being in public without interaction. It’s like my brain goes into overdrive, trying to predict a sudden interaction incoming like a quick time event
I’d comment on something slightly more relevant than the weather, because the conversation can then fade to comfortable silence (for me at least) knowing no more conversation is likely, or I’d do what I always do when someone engages - everyone has something interesting about them, I’ll throw the conversation in random directions until I find a topic worth speaking about
Considering it’s only 8 seconds this must be the fastest fucking elevator ever so I’m probably screaming
The elevator is actually out of order, she likes hanging in there, but you leave as soon as you see it doesn’t work
Is she a ghost?
I make brief eye contact, purse my lips to form a half-smile, and nod my head downward. Then i move to an open corner of the elevator, i pull my phone out, and i end my turn.
The elevator stops at the next floor and a Chadbro™ enters. He does not notice you, and does not press any buttons on the elevator. He sniffs his pits before posting his hand on the wall beside the woman and whispers something in her ear. Her face changes to disgust and she darts a pleading glance in your direction, silently asking for help.
I put on my robe and wizard hat
Please understand how small an elevator is, and how big fireball is. Your party is begging you.
I smile casually then turn slightly away from them before sitting down crossed legs facing away, trying to focus on my romantic web comics.
You forgot to roll for initiative!
Combat hasn’t been initiated. lol
Famous last words.
“haha roll initiation for what? im in a elevator :p”
Chadbro slowly begins to turn. A smirk creeps across his face as he stares daggers into my soul.
He draws a broadsword“Oh”
Lady in red. It’s a simulation, no experiment is going to show anything worthwhile.
“Look again.”
looks
“Fuck, I wish you’d stop doing that, Morpheus.”
Nothing and just awkwardly stare on the floor or wall, like with anyone else.
Well, considering the only elevator I take is to a secure area, I’d ask to see your visitor’s badge and inform you civilians aren’t allowed here unescorted.
She IS the escort.
I got a gift card from the airport for challenging the “secret shopper” once. Apparently had walked past four actual employees before I challenged him. I was on my way to the jobsite.
Why do you assume she doesn’t have clearance?
No access badge clearly visible attached between neck and waist.
And if she’s holding it in her hand to put on? I just can’t imagine dresses being prohibited in secure areas.
Then she’s going to keep getting challenged by security until she clips the damn badge on the damn dress.
We have 11 people with clearance and I know them all.
Only cleav…ance. Haha!
Second 1: introduce myself
Second 2: Andrew Tate pose
Second 3: obtain phone number
Second 4: go on date
Second 5: head home with them
Second 6: get touchy
Second 7: undress
Second 8: get off at my floor because I already came at second 1.
Absolutely nothing because people who have elevator conversations are not worth talking to.
Hey. Some of my best conversations have taken place in an elevator.
But yeah, I’m not worth talking to
I was thinking about this exact scene
What the fuck was that x)
Liar liar. 90s movie where Jim Carey plays a lawyer that gets put under a spell or something n then can’t tell a lie anymore.
Damn. Mod removed my comment because it said “boobies”. Surprised yours is still up.
Risky click of the day paid off
Well, Pac-man was originally called Puck-man. They changed it because… Not because Pac-man looks like a hockey puck. “Paku Paku” means “flap your mouth”, and they were worried that people would change, scratch out the P turn it into an F, like…
Were you the Pac-man guy?
No I was the fuck man guy… wait
I wouldn’t say anything because some women find elevator pickup attempts intimidating.
Way back when I was single, I could pick up a woman without even having to corner her.
Just follow the good old rules of 1 and 2.
It’s not hard

“You gonna jump? 3… 2… 1… GO!”
Nothing because I’m taking the stairs
Omg girl, you look amazing in that dress. I’m so jealous. Be safe girl and remember to cover your drink.
Literally the only correct answer other than polite silence.
There’s always “hello” and “have a nice day”
That’s not how ‘literally’ works
Literally has been used as an intensifier for over 200 years. The Oxford English Dictionary includes the definition of “figuratively”. Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Henry David Thoreau, James Fenimore Cooper, James Joyce, Charles Dickens, and Mark Twain all used it that way in their writing.
It is truly bizarre that one of the definitions of the word is literally the opposite of the primary definition of the word, however.
The dictionary is descriptive, not proscriptive. Language evolves
I knew I’d receive that reply, and I know it to be true. It’s still very odd, as noted. I’m sure there are other examples where one definition contradicts another, but none immediately spring to mind.

It literally includes literally 😉
