Not in the mood
Today, I'm severely hungover. Upon returning home, I came to find that both of the elevators were out of order. I live on the 12th floor. FML

Today, my building's elevators were temporarily out of service. I climbed up 17 flights of stairs only to realize I left my keys downstairs. After the painful climb back up, the elevator lights came on. FML

LETMEOUT!
Today, despite being claustrophobic and avoiding lifts at all costs, I had to use the lift at work to carry boxes of paper to the 3rd floor. It broke down. FML

Today, we had a fire drill in my dorm, and I live on the 7th floor of my building. They shut the elevators down and I had to walk down 14 flights of steps. I shattered my kneecap last week. They turned the alarm off when I got to the first floor. FML

Today, my window got busted and won't shut properly. I live in a college dorm room and maintenance says they can't fix it for a couple of days. It's below freezing in my dorm and I can see my breath while trying sleep. FML
Elevated fear
Today, I finally sought help for my crippling fear of elevators. When I arrived at my new therapist's office, I found the door to the stairs locked. To get to my appointment on the third floor of the building, I have to take the elevator. FML

Today, I worked up my courage and took an elevator for the first time in my life. Unfortunately, it was also my first time getting trapped for several hours in an elevator. FML

agreed with 23, don't be lazy, use the stairs

you guys are idiots. 26 floors is a shit load of stairs, especially if there are at least 10-15 stairs per floor. Your legs will be about to fall off when you get to the top. On the bright side, laugh at the people on the 27th and above floors

feel bad for the people who live on the 27th floor

Anybody calling OP a fatass is stupid. Just walking up that many stairs isn't that bad; it's walking up thany stairs with books, boxes, or groceries that sucks.

I feel your pain OP!!!! I live on the 21st floor. I take the stairs sometimes just for exercise, but it's a killer!!!

155, Four of the dorms at my University have 28 floors. Larger schools have to fit a lot of people and it's more economical, space wise, to build up.

Or you could ask Percy Jackson to borrow his flying shoes. I had the same problem and he let me borrow them last year. A little hard to control at first and you won't want to return them but they were fantastic!

It's okay, by the time the elevator is fixed, you'd have a great looking buttock [;
