Elevator Fate

The chance encounters in elevators that result from a series of seemingly random occurrances, such as a nice citizen holding the door for you, dropping your keys, or stopping to tie your shoe. Often these encounters are with either the one person you don't want to be in an elevator with or the one person you do want to be in the elevator with. It is the fate of elevator that brings you together.
S*sie: Elevator fate, like, made me become interested in someone for the first time.
V*ctoria: I'm going to use that as my example.

Elevator Snob

A person who refuses to hold an elevator door open for other parties to enter so they can arrive on their own floor without interruption.
When you "accidentally" miss the open door button and smile to yourself knowing it's a non stop ride to your own floor. The number of elevator snobs in a given skyscraper is directly proportional to the number of floors for said building.

space elevator

This is a type of turd. It is defined as a poo that touches the surface of the toilet water whilst still connected to the person pooing. This is analogous to the theoretical space elevator, which is a counterbalance in geostationary orbit that is anchored to a point on the Earth's surface by a long cable.
Roberto: "I just did two space elevators in one sitting"
Dom: "Niiice"

elevator circles

Walking awkwardly around a large elevator lobby after you press the button, because you don't know which elevator door to stand by.
At work yesterday, my boss walked by while I was doing my elevator circles, and now he thinks I'm crazy.

Elevator Dance Party

1) When you stick a half-dozen goofy white guys with Hawaiian shirts and khaki shorts in the elevator of a busy office/residential building. One person carries around a boombox or some small stereo in hand and the rest attempt to do stereotypical white man dance techniques like the shopping cart, water sprinkler, or the cabbage patch. The music of choice is usually a trance/techno mix. Movement is limited, so you get what looks like a rhythmless, homosexual clusterfuck. Usually will only last up to 15 minutes, when at that time someone complains that they can't take the elevator because a group of dorks are taking up too much room and/or making a scene.

2) A real sausage fest.
"When some guys from SUNY Albany tried to throw an Elevator Dance Party, their shindig was prematurely halted due to Aunt Jemima complaining about it. On the bright side, at least they didn't permanently ruin their chances of scoring with a woman for the next several years."

"Elevator Dance Parties never include more than one of two ladies tops, so it ends up being a statistical sausage fest."
