New Concept!

[Kittish]

Overheard the other day while I was taking one of my breaks:

Guy on cell phone: Dude, we're outside the #### Building, how do we get in??

Here's an idea- find a DOOR. I realize this might be a new concept, and thus outside of your comfort zone, but I promise it won't hurt! Much....

[Samaliel]

Well, depending on the circumstances, the door might not be glaringly obvious.

But I should probably know better than to assume anything.

This is one of those conversations that sounds idiotic from the outside, and could very well be just that stupid, but there could be a really good reason for it too. I love those kinds of conversations. Coming up with the most bizarre but logical reasons for the statements is fun.

True, the Chemistry building's front door is actually down some stairs and to the side. The door at the front is actually a side door and you can only open it from the inside.

Scale the building and enter through the roof hatch.

climb in through a window and freak everyone out. always a good idea.

I approve both of these methods of entry.

One of the buildings on my College's campus is a bloody maze. It's the art building actually. It's little wonder that people can't find the third floor in an art building. Seriously, the staircase of consistent height goes from floor 4 to floor 2 to floor 1 by going down the same amount of stairs, but the building itself is purely vertical. It's amazing. The third floor is purportedly an English department, not an art department.

The US Patent Office used to have search rooms that would be the envy of any AD&D maze designer. Every search room, and there were over a hundred, was a different maze. The better ones had maps posted next to the door. Now that everything has been computerized, there are no more search rooms.

That reminds me of 'Sideways Stories From Wayside School.'

Oh no, not this time, Helix! I'm following you up there and making sure that rope is tied off properly, then we come back in through the front door to make our daring escape!
