Jastiger posted:How do you handle it when there are two sets of doors? You hold the door open for the first set, then they stop/get a phone call/pause for whatever reason and now they are in between the outter door and inner door. If you hold it open you look like a tool as they obviously don't want to enter/exit, but if you don't, you're essentially slamming the door in their face since there is only like 5 feet of area between the doors. when i find myself in this situation i douse the offending patron with lighter fluid and set them ablaze before stop drop and rolling my sweet rear end to the bar and exclaiming "ill have what hes having"

Deal with it the same as any perturbance in the natural order. Eyes front, keep walking. You pass beggars all the time and a lot of them are old and feebleminded. Walking out of a CVS is morally much easier. Wait, they have automatic doors. Whatever. Just don't be that poo poo with a free hand who darts in behind someone to avoid holding the door for someone right behind them. symbolic posted:i just enter through the window and avoid this scenario entirely Soon every delinquent shoplifter gang will use this method.

I think when a cop holds a door open and either doesn't leave enough room to get by them or creates a barrier for a person with a disability it falls under false imprisonment and hate crime laws. Most people know how to hold a door without molesting somebody or creating an awkward narrow corridor. Claiming that you're too stupid to use a door is like claiming you're in a coma but somehow still walking around and yelling poo poo at people.

You could just do the opposite. Open the door just barely enough for yourself to squeak through and then keep going. That way there is no real opportunity for the door to be held open since you're already on you're way.

That way there is no real opportunity for the door to be held open since you're already on you're way. Unless the person is exiting/entering while I am doing the opposite, this is what I do. If a door can close in the time it would take them to reach it, unless they have a baby or are old/hurt, I just kick the door open behind me and move on. This is also what most people do in my city afaik. Sometimes a person will hold a door open for someone entering while they are, but [unless they know the person or there is some circumstance stopping the person from opening the door themselves], its considered awkward and unnecessary.

I am very very fat so when I hold the door open I usually end up blocking it and they have to squeeze by my belly and nine times out of ten I'm not wearing a shirt and they get very greasy. I think I should be exempt from having to hold the door open at all.

If anything doors should be harder to open and we should be forbidden from offering aid to others so we can weed out the weak.

I've settled on this: DistanceThresholdMeters = 1 + 3*NormalizedAttractiveness^2 where 0 < NormalizedAttractiveness < 1 is how attractive I find the person in question, 0 meaning "completely repulsive" and 1 meaning "will you marry me".

I like to play "There's a killer after me". When I walk through a door I look behind me to see if anyone is coming, if so I give a surprised little yelp, hop a bit in the air, slam the door shut and run as fast as I can waving my hands in the air. I don't scream because it might make me look silly.

I would prefer a law that let's you simply stab someone either: a. going through the wrong side of a double door, like seriously every waking moment of transportation you should be getting used to the idea of moving forward on the right (or left if you live in such a place), why is it so god drat complicated when it comes to doors b. tries to enter through a single door when people are presently exiting

Sorry, sometimes it's hard to tell who is giving me their number because I am hot and who is giving me their number because it's policy.

Sometimes when you hold the door for a woman (it's always a woman, usually the soccer mom type), she'll just breeze into the store or wherever, and not say thanks at all. I always want to scream "You're welcome bitch" but I'm way too timid. Very little makes me angry, but when someone does this to me, I am mad about it for days.

I have never seen my boss (who I rarely see since he lives in a different state) hold a door for someone. He's very nice and polite and everything, but he just walks in and lets the door go, even when someone is directly behind him and talking to him (I am sometimes this person). It's like he somehow missed out on this one specific social thing that everyone does. Very weird.

A lot of older dudes won't pass through a door if I hold it open for them. Dude, this is awkward enough without you explaining that you're trying to save my weak woman arms I once had to awkwardly shuffle around and switch spots.
