Oct 8 2009Move Those Buns!: Getting People To Use The Stairs Instead Of The Escalator

FIRST! very cool i like it!

They should get that little Mozart protege kid from Britain to come play that thing. Snotty little showoff. Just kidding...but seriously that kid is going to score so much trim over the years.

Win!

I hate my firewall.... i love religious jargon (read Bashing) i hate Firstards and BathCaptain.... and work... no time to even post this last few days, but i am always reading you GW.... hey naas was Scruff really baned?

Nice, awesome idea.... DO LIKE!

I hope they eventually 'Billy Jean' them, I'd play on the stairs for a good twenty or twenty five minutes if they lit up

@4 don't think so yet, but don't forget the 1st rule of fight club good sir

How did Scruff get banned?

I wanna see a fat kid fall down those stairs. That would be fun!

@6 and dont forget the second rule of fight club...which in my openion is more important than the first.

@6 and dont forget the second rule of fight club...which in my openion is more important than the first.

good point @10

@7, careful. You may be next. Remember GFS.

Piano Stairs, now there is a motivation to use the stairs. Of course, it's also going to lead a new form of 'art-rock' intp the music world, which will consist of said 'artist' getting loaded on chemicals and throwing himself down said stairs and calling whatever noise comes out a song. You just watch. It will happen. And people WILL buy it.

@12 hahaha, but seriously I'll torrent it 1st

GFS? What is that? LSdiesel I have never heard of anybody no how named GFS!

Museum of Science in Boston has something similar. Love it!

@14 then I guess that makes YOU the loser

Aaaaand how will those stats change once the novelty wears off?

@ naas, I don't live on the internet sorry.

south park naas bigger longer and uncut.

Hey, no way! Was Shumway banned from the site—I thought his work installed Adsense or something?

@25 damn, right over my head sorry man
@26 his work did something Leo, and until he get's up out of that cubicle, walks through the walls holding him caged within & out into the free world of information in the digital multiverse........ we sit and wait patiently

his name was http://www.sneeko.net/images/gifs1/1134596028800.gif

K...just had a thought, so everyone stand back b/c it doesn't happen all that often (twice so far in the past 37 years & one of those was WAAAAYYYYY off - sorry Sister Margaret) -

Let's go buy up about 50 cases of slinkys and start up a whole slinky jamboree!

Shit! Wasted another one. Ah well...there's always next year (or so).

@28 I've found great humor in collecting 100s of superballs ($30 worth from toys r us) and taking them downtown to the tallest building I can get myself up into, then letting them all go down the indoor fire escape stairs before taking the elevator back down. It's hysterical but I'm also an idiot sometimes.

I told you that story because I would love to be a part of this slinky idea, don't let it die

...

Yeah... that's gonna' sound horrible when hundreds of people are trying to catch the MUNI during rush hour.

This was at www.unionversity.com first !!!!

lol well if you interested in watching silly asian girls freak out over polar bears check this out its the one that says beware the polar bear

dis made me smile

my fat ass would still take the escalator

HAHA - at 1:33 notice the perv who looks back to scope the fine piece of swedish tail that just walked by him.

that's hot stuff thar, getting active should always be something fun doing. Be neat if a group o' folks gathered to do a good o' Mozart...or a Tetris jig

A better question is if you can get me to kill random strangers by implementing a horribly annoying and pointless thing... The answer is yes.

"Granted in the U.S. not a single extra person would have taken the stairs and at least two women would have called the cops about a possible bomb."

(Sigh)...unfortunately, I think this is the truest sentence you've ever typed on here, GW.

But on the lighter side, it also made me think of Yosemite Sam booby-trapping piano keys, but Bugs would always play the last note one key off and eff it up.

Its a Trap!!!!

@ naas

His name was Gordan Fu(king Shumway.......

Hey! I thought he was gonna start hitting up Geekologie at home or something. What happened with that?

@ 41 .... i always think i will get home and watch the videos i cant see thanks to my beloved firewall... but one thing leads to another and it's just not the same.. so i never do.... and if i do, there is just so much to get caught up on that there is no desire to post... and since the posts are already a couple of hours the coments kinda go unoticed... it's frustrating... or he was abducted by aliens and is being sodomized as we type.

Well this satisfied my happy news piece requirement of the day.

Let's see...do I wanna take the ancient analog pianola keyboard stairs?

Or do I want to take the awesome Guitar Hero moving fretboard escalator?

ARE YOU READY TO ROCK, STOCKHOLM?!!!

Stupid drunken Scandinavians. Next thing you know, they'll probably give the Nobel Peace Prize to some undeserving moron.

Yes, I agree too! Was it that difficult to turn them off? [Looks fun]

@44

Nah...this year they decided to give it to a Harvard graduate who wound up running a country that normally looks down its nose at the rest of the world and their petty politics and religions. All in all, a pretty cool guy who is trying to reach out to those who oppose him, even though he doesn't have to, and is doing the best he can with the shit sandwich he was handed...oh yeah, all the while trying to make the world a better place.

And what exactly have you done over the past few months? Levelled up another toon on WoW? Gratz mate.

I love it! It's a great ad.

@46

He has yet to achieve anything. I'm all for making the world a better place and all, but I don't think giving him the Nobel Peace Prize was deserved.

@ 46

In other news, the amateur director Blastphemer was given an Oscar today for a movie he has not made yet. But from what we can tell when he talks about it, it will be pretty kick*ss....

First of all...let me start off by thanking the man upstairs for this award.

It's been many years of lying around doing absolutely nothing but dreaming up the perfect movie that has culminated in these prestigious award (or at least that's what I heard on Faux News this morning). I guess other directors would've actually had a shot if they had EVER even come up with a script of some sort, but for some reason they found themselves too wrapped up in telling the rest of the world that they didn't deserve a movie from us, and specifically telling me how I was completely wasting everyone's time and money by actually coming up with one of my own. There were many times when I could've easily listened to all those past and present directors who must be way smarter than I, based on past movies they deemed unworthy to make...and just blended into the scenery to keep from being told how much I'm screwing their perfect vision of movie making up, and gave in to their wet dreams of my ultimate failure. However, I somehow have found the audacity to push forward and will keep pushing until this movie is every theater and available for ALL to see.

So for all those that at least appreciate knowing what their IS a movie, and that it is actually going to be made...thank you.

To all the haters...keep hatin', at least you found something you're good at.

Oh yeah...and thanks to the academy for being above it all and having the wisdom to see through all the posturing of my peers to see that there is at last somebody who is at least willing to try.

Now then...who wants to go back to my place for a beer?

@ 50

Movies can go under a little something called turnaround.

And just because it's going to be made, doesn't mean it's going to be any good.

Back to the original topic: I hope President Obama succeeds, I really do. I just don't think he should be awarded based on speculation.

Brilliant!

@46...

I wish! But my stupid mother canceled my WoW account! I hate her! I hate her! I hate her!

And I WOULD HAVE brought peace to the world, but my fat stupid mother grounded me because I hate her so much, so now I can't do anything - even for peace! FU Mom! SEE?! Now the whole WORLD hates me! Even the snotty limey poof from @46!

Where's my remote?!!!

Must See!!!

Simpy awesome. that is all I have to say Awesome.

That is knda awesome, or do i mean ulltimately Awesome!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's the stairs from Xylophone Tower in Eternal Sonata! :]

Hi..
I hope President Obama succeeds, I really do. I just don't think he should be awarded based on speculation.

In the US, the only people who would be fascinated by this would be kids, but with the overweight problem we have with kids, that might not be a bad thing. lol

Oh, and GFS? So...Gordon Shumway? When did ALF get a computer?

Finally, as for Obama, I'm assuming he received the award because he's the only one doing anything for peace in the world, today. Pretty sad state of the world, eh?

THEY CALL ME TATER SALAD!!! HAHAHA

oh god i would like to try it with bike!
