pet peeve #1

in hopes of my readers getting to know me better, and because recently i have had trouble coming up with creative blog topics, i am going to begin a series of posts in which i describe my greatest pet peeves. let's see how successful this venture is.

so you're all wondering, what could be mok's number one pet peeve? well, i havent really had too much time to think about it since i just came up with this idea 5 minutes ago, but i think i still have a pretty good idea of what tops my list.

I HATE IT WHEN I HOLD THE ELEVATOR FOR PEOPLE AND THEY DON'T SAY THANKS AND THEY STOP ON THE 2ND OR 3RD FLOOR OF JESTER.

now ive tolerated many annoying acts in my lifetime, but is there anything more annoying than that?! i mean, if you live on the 4th floor and it's not a busy time or anything, then okay, i suppose it's alright to take the elevator. i mean, of course, assuming you have just come back from gregory after running 20+ miles and working out for 3 hours straight. oh, and i assume you have a walking problem.

unfortunately, from what i've noticed, people taking the elevator to the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th floors are all healthy people. i just don't understand their logic. are some of them really thinking, "im having a pretty good day, and hey, look! it's an elevator full of people! im sure they're already gonna stop on at least 5 floors on the way up, but they wouldn't mind stopping on the 2nd floor, right?"

i think a petition should be sent around campus concerning this issue. peter suggested that one day, all the jester elevators should be reprogrammed. anyone pushing the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th floor buttons will experience an electric shock, a verbal reprimand (ie, "you shouldn't have pressed that..."), and be automatically sent to the 10th floor. wow, the more i think about it, the more i realize how good of an idea this is!

alright, you EE majors. make yourselves useful.
