Elevator talk

At my college we have 4 floors. I use the elevator quite frequently, but what buggs me is that wierd elevator silence. No music, no machine sound, not even a cricket, just silence. I normaly dont have any problems finding things to say but in this case im stumped.
e.g.
1.Soooo where ya headed? (None of your dam business.)
2.Im headed to...(like i give a crap.)
3.Nice weather today. (Give me a break how many times have i heard that tired line.)
4.Hey your hot. (Reach for mace.)
It just seems like nothing sounds right to match the situation. Any way to avoid that annoying awkward silence?

Just ask them whats up, or comment about something they have, if they have a law book comment on a law class you might have in common or something. Or just offer some heroin, starts conversation right.

That is most definitely something you could use to break the silence in an elevator.

I am pretty anti-social so I like the quiet in the elevator if I take it. I usually walk the stairs cause I need the exercise anyway.

I think most people would rather you not make an attempt at idle chatter.....however, if you're just 'that kinda guy' then say whatever you wanna say, they will either think you are retarded or will remember you next time....you could always sing....lol

Why don't you just carry a cd player or something with you. Keeps you at least somewhat entertained, and you won't be bothering anyone else in the process.

I like strangers making conversation otherwise it's just awkward. I recommend cracking lame jokes. They'll either laugh because they find it funny or laugh because they're nervous.

Act like a deaf mute. You know, lots of unintelligible moans and the like. Either that or face one of the the back corners until your floor arrives.

Not to get off topic, but has anyone ever just started laughing for no reason in the evlevator with folks around you. (Usually happens why you remember somethng funny or a joke and you can't control yourself and just burst out laughing.) The stares you get from the other person is classic, and it makes you laugh even more.
thats why I take the stairs from now on. :lol:
TS out

I have no idea what you are talking about man, and don't get off topic ask in a pm if you have to.
anyway as far as elavator talk goes..... how far are you traveling? is it really that unbearable for a floor or two?
heres a lame idea... pretend to be talking on your cell phone or something then hang up and say something stupid like oh man don't you hate it when these damn things cut out on you? or something stupid like that about your phone then try and keep it going by moving onto other topics

I just jump right on the woman and start groping as best i can. The longer the elevator ride, the better your chances of success.

i like farting. . .its so funny cause everyone is trapped in their with your nasty ass smell. They try to get it away, but the walls are to close. You can hear them sniffing the air, and then trying to cover their nose and mouth. OH god its funny! Or do this, walk into the elevator and pretend like your blind, put your fingers on the brail, like your reading it, then procedd to push all the buttons one at a time pretending that you just misread the brail. Dont let anyone help you cause your to proud to accept the help of a normal person.

Tell the girl to call you, and write your number on her hand. Wave like an old friend as you leave the elevator.
Or...
Look at the ceiling, and start making panicky noises and moving around like you're nervous while continuing to stare @ ceiling. When doors open spin around and look scared at ceiling then run away. Works great in big city elevators.

one time this smelly ass dude walked out and I walked in. Man the whole elevator smelled like B.O. for the rest of the day, it was disgusting. I've also farted rank ones in the elevator before, it's pretty funny how ppl walk in there and you can see their sour faces.

You guys are all wrong. The best way to make a good impression in the elevator is to say something completely random right before you get off on your floor. Then, they will remember you as the guy who always says something random and can start a convo LATER on....baby steps guys

This weekend in my hotel I walked into an elevator with a father and his daughter, and you could tell he had just dropped some serious ass, if not just by the rancid smell, then by the smirk on his face and the fact that he wouldn't look us in the eyes. The whole 10 floor ride consisted of me finding reasons to scratch my face and cover my nose at the same time, while my friend made awkward conversation with his daughter.

Fun Things to Do in an Elevator
1. Make race car noises when anyone gets on or off.
2. Blow your nose and offer to show the contents of your Kleenex to other passengers.
3. Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering: "Shut up, dammit, all of you just shut UP!"
4. Whistle the first seven notes of "It's a Small World" incessantly.
5. Sell Girl Scout cookies.
6. On a long ride, sway side to side at the natural frequency of the elevator.
7. Shave.
8. Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside ask: "Got enough air in there?"
9. Offer name tags to everyone getting on the elevator. Wear yours upside-down.
10. Stand silent and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
11. When arriving at your floor, grunt and strain to yank the doors open, then act embarrassed when they open by themselves.
12. Lean over to another passenger and whisper: "Noogie patrol coming!"
13. Greet everyone getting on the elevator with a warm handshake and ask them to call you Admiral.
14. One word: Flatulence!
15. 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.
16. Do Tai Chi exercises.
17. Stare, grinning, at another passenger for a while, and then announce: "I've got new socks on!"
18. When at least 8 people have boarded, moan from the back: "Oh, not now, damn motion sickness!"
19. Give religious tracts to each passenger.
20. Meow occasionally.
