Whether you first push or pull this door, it doesn't open; it only senses whether you've pushed or pulled. Then it sets itself so that it opens the other way.

I have one of these. I call it "lock". |
|

This is a wall. And *this* is a fishbone. |

What happens if two people try to simultaneously open the door from each side? |
|

I've seen this accidently baked on the doors in our office. Once you swipe your badge, the catch is supposed to release. Some of the catches are a little bit sticky, so you have to push the door to get the catch to release, then pull the door to open it. I've seen a couple people spend quite a bit of time trying to get in... |

But replace "a couple people" with "myself". |

I pick door number three. What do I win? |

Evil Door 2: The Quickening. |

No, that's Evil Door III in 3-D. Get your glasses at the door. |

do people vote + depending on the silliness? |
|

My guess is yes in far too many cases. I have a theory that everyone but me presses the + and - completely at random. |
|
| |
*sigh* thank you. I thought i was the only one who noticed. although that frustrates the whole point of a + and - |
|
| |
which seems to encourage more silliness! ahhh the silliness is taking over! it's too much! ...cant...fight...it! |
|

Damn. I appear to have hit [annotate] at random. <whistles nonchalantly while nervously sidling off the site.../> |

This idea is evil -- to a 'takes your breath away with it's evilness' degree. |
