Are you a wanted criminal? Are you trying to avoid your
wife? Do you embarrass yourself regularly simply by being
alive?
What you need is the Emergency Ex-suit! An outfit
comprising the wearer sandwiched in a doorframe between
two full-size doors. The wearer waddles about their
everyday
activities while observing the world through a
little peephole.
If someone wishes to talk to you they can knock or ring the
doorbell, and if you want to talk to them you unlock and
open the door. BUT, if you see someone approaching you
don't want to talk to or if you find yourself in an unpleasant
situation, just set the frame on the ground facing them...
and exit through the back door.
Includes letterbox for bathroom convenience, brief-hello
intercom, cat flap and padding for horizontal naps!

//An outfit comprised of the wearer sandwiched in a doorframe between two full- size doors, hung on the shoulders.// |
|
| |
Before the mob gets here, perhaps you'd be wise to address the grammar points in that sentence. |
|
| |
Jostle your way down the street, along with the other doors, get into work and set the door in your office's doorframe - open for business, so to speak. Waddle over to the conference room, back up against the wall and walk out, along with the other attendees from their portals. |

//comprised of the wearer [...] // |
|
| |
Could we try "comprising the wearer [...]"? |
|
| |
//BUT, if you see someone approaching you don't want to talk to or if you find yourself in an unpleasant situation, just set the frame on the ground facing them... and exit through the back door.// |
|
| |
A good option. Alternatively, stop moving and pretend no-one is home. |
|
| |
It's like a car but for pedestrians, in that it gives you a bit of privacy and distance from other people |
|
| |
Ah sorry about the bad grammar guys!! English is my
first language |

Hello [caspian]; haven't seen you for a while ... although, since
you've been in WA for 12 years, we've probably passed in the
street at some point without knowing it. |
|
| |
{Spooky music} "They walk amongst us" ... or, rather, "we walk
amongst them". Usually out of doors - but, clearly, that could
change. |
|
| |
What sort of "spooky music" ? Generic dead-teenager-movie spooky music ? Jaws-type spooky music ? Na-Na-na-Na, Na-Na-na-Na Outer Limits/Twilight Zone music ? "Psycho" shower scene ? |
|
| |
There should be some sort of HB convention to allow the simple and easy invocation of appropriate music and/or sound effects ... |
|
| |
Every breath you take
Every dumb mistake
Every bond you break
Every thing you bake
I'll be watching you. |
|

Oh can't you see
This idea has three
Fishbones, not croissants
Which everyone else wants |
|
| |
You know, with all the creative musical talent we have here, we should form a banned. |
|
| |
What about the other 99.97% ? All the plagiaristic, derivative, imitative musical ... "talent" ... ? |
|
| |
No, not talent. Capability, maybe, but not actual talent, unless you're also prepared to class incest, child abuse and bestiality as "talents". |
|
| |
Concerning the idea itself, shades of <link> ? |
|
| |
Hi [pertinax]. It's surprising we haven't met just by chance, even. I wonder if we know anyone in common. |
|
| |
//WTAGIPBAN...// agreed, croissant. |
|
| |
//What if you want to come in? // I reckon with the doors slight ajar a guest could fit in up against the frame. |
|
| |
Of course, we could meet on purpose, at a very small half-con
(maybe you, me and [AusCan] if we're lucky). It could hold a
record as World's Most Isolated Half-Con, until someone does
one in Nan Madol. |
|
| |
... and what [RayfordSteele] said. [+] |
|
| |
Which could result in it getting jammed ... |
