If you have to ask, you’d never understand.

Jack Kerouac might actually have liked what you did there.

I interpreted the headline as:

  • There were a couple attempts to go down the up escalator

And I was also reminded of this book:

Shirley I can’t be the only one here who enjoys running up the down escalator? Quite a rush, and always about 10% harder than I expect it to be, even accounting for that 10%.

And if there’s any competitive otisizers among us, my personal best is a two story outdoor escalator on Lewers Street in Waikiki… did that one after a couple drinks and wasn’t quite sure whether I’d give up or throw up first.

Now I can imagine one doing this, but both, as if both were whacked out? I’ve seen teens doing this in the mall, and we call that fooling around and having fun. But if the couple are elderly…? Could they both be just screwing around? Who really knows. Right?

No, you aren’t the only one. And don’t call me “Shirley”

Severely nearsighted? 'Honey, this is the longest staircase…"

No one uses escalators properly anyway. Schlubs just stand there like lazy cattle while people with things to do try to actually use the accelerated stairway they’re blocking.

Stand right, walk left.

Not exactly rocket science.

Maybe they’re just British or something?

We should have known it was trouble when they came in through the out door.

Dante: Beatrice, wait!

Beatrice: Keep up!

Dante: You’re dragging me through Hell, woman!

That escalated quickly
