You have 8 seconds.

Absolutely nothing, because I wouldn't want a stranger to talk to me in an elevator and I was raised to do unto others.

I feel awkward being in public without interaction. It's like my brain goes into overdrive, trying to predict a sudden interaction incoming like a quick time event
I'd comment on something slightly more relevant than the weather, because the conversation can then fade to comfortable silence (for me at least) knowing no more conversation is likely, or I'd do what I always do when someone engages - everyone has something interesting about them, I'll throw the conversation in random directions until I find a topic worth speaking about

The elevator is actually out of order, she likes hanging in there, but you leave as soon as you see it doesn't work
- Is she a ghost?

I make brief eye contact, purse my lips to form a half-smile, and nod my head downward. Then i move to an open corner of the elevator, i pull my phone out, and i end my turn.

You forgot to roll for initiative!
- Combat hasn't been initiated. lol

Lady in red. It's a simulation, no experiment is going to show anything worthwhile.

"Look again."

looks

"Fuck, I wish you'd stop doing that, Morpheus."

Nothing and just awkwardly stare on the floor or wall, like with anyone else.

Well, considering the only elevator I take is to a secure area, I'd ask to see your visitor's badge and inform you civilians aren't allowed here unescorted.

She IS the escort.
I got a gift card from the airport for challenging the "secret shopper" once. Apparently had walked past four actual employees before I challenged him. I was on my way to the jobsite.

Absolutely nothing because people who have elevator conversations are not worth talking to.

Hey. Some of my best conversations have taken place in an elevator.
But yeah, I'm not worth talking to

Well, Pac-man was originally called Puck-man. They changed it because... Not because Pac-man looks like a hockey puck. "Paku Paku" means "flap your mouth", and they were worried that people would change, scratch out the P turn it into an F, like...

Were you the Pac-man guy?
- No I was the fuck man guy... wait

I wouldn't say anything because some women find elevator pickup attempts intimidating.

- Way back when I was single, I could pick up a woman without even having to corner her.

"You gonna jump? 3... 2... 1... GO!"

Nothing because I'm taking the stairs

Omg girl, you look amazing in that dress. I'm so jealous. Be safe girl and remember to cover your drink.

Literally the only correct answer other than polite silence.
- There's always "hello" and "have a nice day"

"I can be done in 7."

Get in the lift.

Stare while ripping an absolutely rancid fart that strips the enamel off her teeth.

Sharpie my number across her tits and give her "double-guns" on the way out

Thanks for making me laugh!

I don't understand. What's a uniform gravitational field and why does being inside one feels like standing in an accelerating elevator?

This is a joke about Einstein's form of the Equivalence Principle:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_principle
- Thanks. Let's see:
  The weak equivalence principle, also known as the universality of free fall or the Galilean equivalence principle can be stated in many ways.
  And
  "... in a uniform gravitational field all objects, regardless of their composition, fall with precisely the same acceleration." "The weak equivalence principle implicitly assumes that the falling objects are bound by non-gravitational forces."[11]
  I'm just beginning to understand. I'm not there yet.

If a hotdog is a sandwich, is the ocean a soup?

A hotdog is not a sandwich.
If you serve bacon, lettuce, and tomato on a plate, you do not call that a sandwich.
But if you serve a hotdog without a bun, you still call it a hotdog.
QED.
- In German, that would be a just a sausage
- And using that same reasoning, a hotdog on a bun is a sandwich.
It is The Primordial Soup
- I would like the primordial salad instead
A hotdog is a taco.

That's how you can tell if you're accelerating
- For a small moment in time my dick and my brain will have separable frames of reference

This is getting insane. I (somewhat at least) get those "you have 24hs with me" ones but what am i gonna do with you in 8 seconds. Id rather spend 24h with an egirl than 8 seconds with you lol.

Going down?

You don't have the proper PPE for the radiologically controlled area.

"Nice uhh, b-leather we're having, uh."

cry, drop my spaghetti and run out

The modern mind is in complete disarray. Knowledge has stretched itself to the point where neither the world nor our intelligence can find any foot-hold. It is a fact that we are suffering from nihilism.

Nothing, I don't like small talk with strangers.

Tip my fedora and say M'Lady

Is this elevator always that fast?

(Before hitting either the ceiling or the floor and both dying, probably.)

Realistically nothing. You gain very little by saying something than you lose not saying anything. The only time people are somewhat open to being talked to, is when they already recognise you a little...

"Are you an AI model?" #new_kind_of_creepy

How did you get into my private elevator? SECURITY!

Does someone have the rest of the photo set or video.... For research.

I was looking at my phone and didn’t notice you.

Boobs are not supposed to be a solid blob... What have you done to them?

"Damn! You do wonderful things for that dress." But only if I have an available exit to walk away after. That one's too forward for the actual elevator ride. Leave her an out, and also an opening.

Honest flirtatious answer: I’d say nice dress and match the energy and vibe of her response.

Not flirtatious answer: ”it always feels weird how you can notice the acceleration in tall elevators”

I’ve probably got somewhere to be, so I’m just hoping you’ll ride the elevator in silence like me.

True statement: when I first heard the Perry Farrel song, I thought he was singing "She's got great tits, she's got great tits". Turns out he was singing "We'll make great pets" and it was a song about an alien invasion of Earth.

from Porno for Pyros 'Pets' song the lyric is 'We'll make great pets'
- Corrected, thanks

“Im sorry, but you are fucking stunning… if I told you you had an amazing body, would you hold it against me?” ^cue ^cheesy ^smile

It’s probably not going to get me anywhere but it might make her laugh, or at least not file sexual harassment charges for speaking to her… lol

Don't do this lol
- In reality I would do what most people would and just keep to myself…
  Just thought I would add some comedy to the thread 😎

Wouldn't say anything. I'd think about this song: "I took her to an elevator, I don't know why but it had to start in somewhere, so it started there".

Your mother was right

Me: Barely looking at her “Ohh hey Trish, sorry for not calling you back”

Her: Looks at me weird… “My names not Trish”

Me: Glance at Her a little closer. “Ohh sorry you look like someone I dated once.” Go back to staring ahead and exit the elevator like a boss.

Even superman can't it make hump for 8 second. 🤣

"Nature has been extraordinarily kind to you."

8 seconds? Is she going up one floor?

"did you slap fletcher reed today?"

Give girl lei
