Marcin WicharyThe sum of all fears
(13 missing because of classic superstition. 4/14/24 missing because “4” sounds like “death” here in Taiwan. 2 missing because the lobby is tall.)

my favorite is the elevators which stop at every floor on some days because in some religions it's not ok to push buttons on those days
Jef Poskanzer@dannotdaniel @mwichary I wish subway elevators which only have two floors would enable this option every day. More than once I've gone into an elevator after a long bike ride, sat there in an exhausted stupor for a minute, and then realized it wasn't moving because I hadn't pushed a button. It should just go!
Canageek@jef @dannotdaniel @mwichary Right, the building I work in is only two stories tall, why do I have to push a button, there's only one option!
@mwichary @jef @dannotdaniel If they were fun buttons to push, I'd be fine, but they're really not good feeling buttons to push. The metal always feels weirdly greasy, so I don't want to touch it.
FiXato@Canageek kiddo sometimes doesn't want to press them because he got a static electric shock once. Telling him to hold my hand so that I would get the shock, helps, though I'm not 100% certain it actually works with static discharge 😅
