Fun Things to Do in an Elevator


*When there is only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder and then pretend it wasn't you.
*Sit with a desk, pencil cup and a telephone in the elevator. When someone walks in, ask if they have an appointment.
(thanks to Shoaib)
*Push a button, pretend it gave you a shock. Smile and go back for more.
*Ask the others in the elevator which floor they're going to, but push the wrong buttons.
*Call the Psychic Hotline and ask them if they know which floor you're on.
*Hold the doors open as if you're waiting for a friend, but then let it close. Say to nobody, "Hey, Wally, how's it been?"
*Drop a pen, wait for someone to pick it up and then yell, "That's mine!"
*Put a cardboard box in the corner; when someone gets on ask them if they can hear ticking.
*When the doors close, announce, "Don't worry, they'll open again soon."
*Enforce a group hug.
*Open your purse slightly and say, "Do you have enough air in there?"
*Tell one of the other passengers that you're sorry, but you're going to have to let him go.
*Wave hands wildly at invisible flies buzzing around your head.
*Make race car noises when anyone gets on or off.
*Shave.
*Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside ask: "Got enough air in there?"
*Stand silent and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
*When arriving at your floor, grunt and strain to yank the doors open, then act embarrassed when they open by themselves.
*Greet everyone getting on the elevator with a warm handshake and ask them to call you "Admiral".
*On the highest floor, hold the door open and demand that it stay open until you hear the penny you dropped down the shaft go "plink" at the bottom.
*Stare, grinning, at another passenger for a while, and then announce: "I've got new socks on!"
*When at least 8 people have boarded, moan from the back: "Oh, not now... motion sickness!"
*Bet the other passengers you can fit a quarter in your nose.
*Frown and mutter "gotta go, gotta go" then sigh and say "oops!"
*Sing along with the Muzak.
*Show other passengers a wound and ask if it looks infected.
*Walk on with a cooler that says "human head" on the side.
*Stare at another passenger for a while, then announce "You're one of THEM!" and move to the far corner of the elevator.
*Leave a box between the doors.
*Ask each passenger getting on if you can push the button for them.
*Wear a puppet on your hand and talk to other passengers "through" it.
*Start a sing-along.
*When the elevator is silent, look around and ask "is that your beeper?"
*Draw a little square on the floor with chalk and announce to the other passengers that this is your personal space.
*Announce in a demonic voice: "I must find a more suitable host body."
*Carry a blanket and clutch it protectively.
*If anyone brushes against you, recoil and holler "Bad touch!"
*While the doors are opening, hurriedly whisper, "Hide it. quick!" then whistle innocently.

* To cover my tush a little bit, no, I did not make these up. But yes, I WOULD be brave enough to do them! I found them on a website and forgot to copy the url. If requested, I will search for it and let you know. :-)
