I've always preferred stairs when and if possible. I get a mild head rush when using elevators.

Finally.

I wish he'd done it in a civilised time zone though.

It was actually rather funny and the people on the elevator said my confused expression was priceless.

Were you trying to go "up" and continually ignoring its suggestion to try "down," instead? (standard cookee award applies.)

It's now a week until I leave home and go to University.

Fuck that's terrifying.

As for elevators, I've never had any issues with them, aside from the occasional unwarranted fear that it'll fall. Escalators on the over-hand, I've had numerous embarrassing escapades with, to the point I now refuse to use them if there's a viable alternative.

Good luck, Griffin. It's the first step to another step. And damn that sounded more profound in my mind.

Why should he be taking any steps at all? The whole point is to leave the the hard work to the machinery.

Weren't you reading? He doesn't like escalators.

BTW, it's the first step to a quarry - he's a geology major.

I hear that's a rocky career path...

How many professional careers are easy? On the other hand, he will have the opportunity to be a real rock star! 8)

I had to cut out the deepest iteration of nested quotes before the forum would let me post that. On a different forum where the limit was a lot higher than three the members made a game of quotes (on a slow day) which got to fairly absurd lengths before the limit was reached. Just a funny memory.

Well there was once a bunch of quarry men who did quite well for themselves.

Always plugging the home team, aren't you?

We do that on a forum, too. Soap Operus.

Given such an great opening? Of course. 8)

Would it be too obvious to say of these Quarrymen of which you speak, that they rock?

Sorry, I was trying to think of a tangential Sycorax joke, but nothing was coming to me.
