The machine spirit demanded blood.
Hope they’re okay though.
The “escalator temporarily stairs” joke was made by Osaka in Azumanga Daiou back in the 1990s.
At least that’s what the English translation said.
To you it may be a joke, to me a disabled person it is reality.
I told my partner at a convention this year to just take the escalator with me. While I’m in my wheelchair. He didn’t find it humorous, but I mean we were going up, c’mon. Just a little fun, pleeeeeease.
+1. And escalators are annoying even when they’re functioning, I’m constantly on the verge of tipping over when I use them. Give me an elevator any day of the week.
Is it better or worse with an elevator?
Elevators are WAY fucking easier. Although when a building has a corridor with several, and the doors only open for 315 milliseconds, and so you’re racing as best you can to the door, just for it to close and you have to push the fucking button again…
Looking at you, Hyatt Regency O’Hare. Make the shit stay open longer, jesus fuck. And why the hell are the accessible rooms not on the ground or lobby floors? And why the hell are they all 2x doubles, and no 1x king config in the entire hotel? And another thing…
I’m talking in case of emergency or shutdown. Escalators just fall back to stairs. Elevators can lock you in
Oh, most definitely elevators. They have rather sophisticated safety measures, and I’ve been told the safest place involving an elevator issue is in the box, it’s just the wait for aid to arrive. I’ve actually walked by a collapsed escalator, so uh, put me in the box suspended in the air any day.
