The elevator

[Vinayaka]

Since I actually got more than one response to my other hypothetical, here's another one. For JG

Suppose as an act of God, you get stuck in an elevator with one other person.
1) Who would that person be in your daydream? What would be your first words, if any?
2) Who would it be in your worst nightmare? What would be your first words, if any?

 

[JustGeorge]

1)Krishna. He's the only one that could tolerate me very long. I'd ask him vvhat vve vvere doing on the elevator, and if he found it funny to stop it.

2)An old covvorker. I'd try to say nothing at all.

1) Charlotte (some readers will know who this is, a YouTuber I came across during lockdown). My first words would be to introduce myself, say what a pleasure it is to meet her in real life at last (we have corresponded a bit on YouTube and by one exchange of emails), and to ask her how she came to be stuck in this lift.

2) Donald Trump. Silence.

1/ Daydream, Patrick Stewart. First words "This isn't the first time weve been in a lift together"

2/ Nightmare, Donald Trump. First words "Touch me and you'll experience a world of pain"

1. Somebody who doesn't talk.
2. Somebody who does.

 

[Altfish]

1. Eric Cantona

2. Nigel Farage

 

[Eddi]

I would most want to be stuck with Mr Blobby as I find him endlessly amusing I am a big fan

Here is a pic of him:



I would least want to be stuck with an exact duplicate of myself

That would be unnerving I would not enjoy it

1. Swami Sarvapriyananda (or Adi Shankara if we're allowed to have dead people in the dream) - "This reminds me of the time an escalator I was on stopped. I was stuck on it for hours."
2. My daughter's mother - "This reminds me of the time an escalator I was on stopped. I was stuck on it for hours."

How did you ever choose between Charlotte and Lucia?

2) Donald Trump. Silence.

I wouldn't be silent with him.

I'd cut a loud fart, and he'd have no way to escape.

Somebody who is an expert in elevator repair. First words: "Please get us out of here."

2) Who would it be in your worst nightmare? What would be your first words, if any?

Probably either @Revoltingest or @Wu Wei. I can't decide which at this point. My first words would be "AUUUUGGGGH!"

Charlotte actually exists and I have talked to her. Luzia is a figment of my imagination - well, OK, she's a real model and rather gorgeous, but I've no idea whether she would be good company in reality. We might find we have nothing to say to one another. Whereas I have so many things I want to ask Charlotte, because I know a bit about her life.

Your Trump strategy makes sense.

Tell you what, though. I don't think I'd like to be stuck in a lift with Gwyneth Paltrow.

That makes sense. Luzia might even be disappointing... vvho knovvs!

VVhy not? (Don't knovv much about her.)

Paltrow seems to be a nutcase and perhaps self-obsessed. I mean what kind of person markets a candle that smells , allegedly, of her vagina? Not that I have anything against the smell, which could in principle be rather exciting, but how pretentious and oversharing can you get?

If I knew I'd be trapped with you, I'd load up
first on beans, cabbage, lutefisk, & haggis.
Adventures in aromatherapy for you, bub!

That's.... avvful.

Nope, don't vvanna be stuck vvith her, either.

What's happened to your w key? You seem to be substituting vv for w. I mean I know the French for doubleyou is double vé , but it is a bit weird.

My W key is indeed broken.

I can do the alt combo, but its a pain.

Although some prefer the explanation that I've developed an accent.

Hmm, how did that happen, I wonder. Perhaps angrily typing w**nker in response to that company that insists you use Whatsapp?

Bien sûr.
