I've tried some of these.
When I was 12, in sleepaway camp we went to a hotel one night. Me and friend went in the elevator and pressed ALL 22 buttons.

Also, not on the list is the one where you wait until the elevator is full, clear your throat and then announce: "So, I'm sure you're all wondering why I've gathered you here today"

I don't support him since he released a video where he collabed with a woman, who not...not dressed so tzniyusly. In some scenes he touched her and actually picked her up....So yeah.

I don't believe he claims he is frum or Shomer Negiah.

I, for one, am inspired that even though he may have personally left certain aspects of the frumkeit he was raised with, his love for a fellow Jew and a fellow human is overflowing, that he wears a yarmulka with pride, that he still views himself as an ambassador for Yiddishkeit.

If ch"v any of my children ever were to go "off the derech" I would only hope they would be something like Meir.

Many people thought he was, the video has more dislikes than likes to be honest. Many men including my DH were shocked, they thought he had a "clean channel" and works generally with frum people like Benny Freidman..

DH said "Well I can't watch his channel anymore.."

Just tried to find the video..can't.
Maybe he removed it from the backlash.

Hey jewwoman!! So glad to have you join the elevator party!
You are too funny. I am laughing and making funny faces right now.

But to make proper funny faces, you need some spaghetti hanging from your mouth. Do you make sure to have that on hand?

Lol hi.
I actually used to live in a building right next to the elevator and I used to rush out to work in the morning and do my make up in it. Lol if anyone got in what a sight...I keep a little ziploc of spaghetti with me at all times. And a can of silly string incase I get too hungry and end up eating the spaghetti and need a back up. embarrassed

Seriously though try being in an elevator the size of a toilet cubicle (minus the toilet) and you get in first so you stuffed in the back corner then a stroller gets in and the lady behind her with a double stroller thinks she can also fit and ur like this little voice shouting help...help...help me im right at the back im still trying to breathe but to no avail Very Happy

...and then the next floor is yours so ur trying to clamber over everything or graciously edge round it all but ur tights (pantyhose for u in USA) catch on something and rip and ur bag strap gets tangled under a wheel and u finally climb out of the wreckage only to realise u have left ur shopping in the elevator and its already gone up to the next floor. LOL

Watch the numbers and wait for the ding. Then I always make sure that the door opens on the floor! The door once opened between floors!

Also please don’t text when entering an elevator, the doors can open and C’v shalom there is no elevator. Elevators are great but you need to be careful.

I believe "elevator surfing" refers to riding the elevator by standing on its roof, outside the cab. Definitely dangerous.

Ah, yes, here we go, from Wikipedia:

Elevator surfing, also known as "liftsurfing", "vator surfing" or "elevaroping", is an activity involving riding on top of elevators. Rarely, the activity may also involve jumping between moving elevators, although most elevator surfers consider this to be unwise and needlessly dangerous.

And riding on top of the cab is safe?

Uh, zaq. Please don't do that. You're more polite than that. Wink

Well, I DO have shoes on underneath. It's not as if I'm exposing my bare feet and the fragrance thereof. Naked feet are cute only on infants who have never worn shoes.

Whoa, this was uncalled for. Maybe you didn't realize how that came across.

There's nothing obnoxious about it, and the other ideas posted here are a lot more ridiculous!

you can always do what my dad once did in a crowded downtown hospital elevator. cleared his throat and said "I'm sure you're all wondering why I gathered you here today..."

Oh this is so funny!!!!! I can't stop laughing!!

I just stare to the door, maybe the people think I'm day dreaming.

Okay, seriously now. This is a major issue. Here's some great suggestions.

Practice your newest dance moves.

Sing a song. Especially, "If you're happy and you know it..." Make sure to clap your hands. The hokey pokey works too.

Ruffle your sheitel before you get on, stand right in front of where the doors close, make your eyes look glazed over and say in a creepy voice: I see dead people...

Stand in front of door closing and announce loudly, looking everyone in eye, that you are conducting a poll on behalf of the government regarding Viagra. "Sir, have you seen any side effects?"

Put on a layer of spray deodorant. Or hairspray.

Sit on the floor and do yoga moves. (This works best in very crowded elevators.)

Play duck-duck-goose. Dump your water bottle over goose's head.

Need more?

OMG, I really LOLed! Come on, spill the beans. Are you Wine or someone else?
