Things to do in an elevator

1) When there's only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder and then pretend it wasn't you.
2) Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock. Smile and go back for more.
3) Ask if you can push the button for other people, but push the wrong ones.
4) Call the Psychic Hotline from your cell phone and ask if they know what floor you're on.
5) Hold the doors open & say you're waiting for your friend. After awhile, let the doors close and say, "Hi Greg. How's your day been?"
6) Drop a pen and wait until someone reaches to help pick it up, then scream, "That's mine!"
7) Bring a camera and take pictures of everyone in the elevator.
8) Move your desk into the elevator & when anyone gets on, ask if they have an appointment.
9) Lay down a Twister mat and ask people if they'd like to play.
10)Leave a box in the corner, & when someone gets on ask them if they hear something ticking.
11)Pretend you are a flight attendant. Review emergency procedures & exits with passengers.
12)Ask, "Did you feel that?"
13)Stand really close to someone, sniffing them occasionally.
14)When the doors close announce to the others, "It's okay. Don't panic, they open again."
15)Swat at flies that don't exist.
16)Tell people that you can see their aura.
17)Call out, "group hug!", then enforce it.
18)Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead, muttering "Shut up, all of you, just shut up!"
19)Crack open your briefcase or purse & while peering inside, ask, "Got enough air in there?"
20)Stand silently and motionless in the corner facing the wall, without getting off.
21)Stare at another passenger for a while, then announce in horror, "You're one of THEM" and back away slowly.
22)Wear a puppet on your hand and use it to talk to the other passengers.
23)Listen to the elevator walls with your stethoscope.
24)Make explosion noises when anyone presses a button.
25)Stare, grinning at another passenger for a while, & then announce, "I have new socks."
26)Draw a little square on the floor with chalk and announce to the other passengers, "This is my personal space!"
