Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 Thousands of (literal) slaves and Filipino workers died building their stadiums, but I think it was fine otherwise
6,500 dead slaves
general
Thursday, July 2, 2026
only a few dozen dead Filipinos (because they have a real country and are US-supported)
The Philippines actual keep really good track it turns out, 36 dead but that includes all of the Gulf States not just Qatar over the years of World Cup construction projects
Replying to Kribbles #kribbles1 That'd be awesome having the world cup in Australia
They better not host it in the Bulldog's stadium (Canterbury-Bankstown). Bulldogs fans are intollerable when they win, and you just want to go outside to buy a pizza.
Then again, that's an AFL stadium. Can you even play soccer at an AFL stadium?
I guess you could, so long as you change the rules of soccer to be identical to AFL.
Actually that's a great idea: at the last minute before the next world cup, change all the rules to AFL, and force all the soccer teams to play another sport.

Depends how long the elevator ride is
15-20 seconds, as stated in the question
specifically, a solo ride
so you get on, select your floor, and you ride it all the way there alone
Your elevator has a whiteboard?
I did not fully read lol
yes Pika, and they're great
I convinced them to add them to my work one, after I told them how cool Amazon's were
I've never seen an elevator with a whiteboard
We also have TVs in ours, that are just advertisements for random weapon systems my company makes
on-loop
and dammit, I messed up the last question
I was supposed to put the Dialga answer
sorry Dialga
"I have never ridden in an elevator before"
I count whistling as talk/sing
I do that sometime
instinct? or do you actually do something on your phone when you're on it for ~15 seconds

So i ride an elevator my 6th floor everyday and im not usually by myself because my building is pretty occupied, but when i am, The elavator saftey notice sheet, is behind a piece of plexiglass, that is held in by 4 screws, i keep removing the screws to the point where you can slide the plexiglass up a bit, and take the paper out, and all i do is flip it upside down and put it back in, and leave 1 screw in, and im sure my building people absolutely hate me (i know they do, because they replace the screws quite often) and to answer your question in advance i dont know what posses me to do this, i just think its funny that they probably think its one of the old disabled people doing it
Jaz, I checked, and you did vote correctly in the poll
so thank you
Wait, I need more info
do you read the safety notice as you do this?
I also just don't take the elevator
unless I have a ton of groceries
actual little vampire
tarp is to stop the dolls from getting in
Replying to Polar_ #polar_ Is seeing yourself in the mirror not just happenstance or am I intentionally walking it to it
intentionally looking at yourself, fixing your hair, commenting on how good your ass looks, etc.
versus just, acknowledging that you are not a vampire and are indeed inside a metal semi-reflective cube
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 do you read the safety notice as you do this?
it is safe up to 12 people and will be re-certified in may of next year so

This is stupid. There's no good hair to do this with, so this is the best I'm getting.
no answer for sitting on the railing if they have one, or leaning against the wall and not moving.. also i have seen thumbtack boards wau more often than whiteboards. people throwing business cards or ik one case at my sisters place whem sje lived above a mall, people kept writing the floor passwords on them. defeats the whole point of the paswords, they had to keep changing them because of that
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 "I have never ridden in an elevator before"
i have in fact ridden an elevator
oh cool +1 Phijkchu elevator riders
ig I made the poll correctly then
pretend I knew you'd been previously elevated all along
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 so thank you
i just wanted to say, i live for the polls
