This just happened actually 5 minutes ago so still reeling to an extent. Anyways.

For some background, I live in a co-ed dorm room at college. It was getting late, and I was getting ready to go to bed but decided to grab a late-night snack from the vending machine downstairs first. I live on the top floor, so stairs aren’t faster, and a pain. So, I hop in the elevator, earbuds in watching youtube like normal. The entire floor is asleep or damn near, so I’m completely alone. When I’m in the elevator alone I tend to get comfortable for the ride down by leaning up all the way against the door and propping up my hand up high; I get into my fully into a reclined position. Finally, to complete the picture, as the elevator descends, I release a deep, clapping, guttural fart, sound only being surpassed by its immediate smell. Full body flatulence, deep, long sigh of relief and all.

I stretch my neck to the side and notice a figure right next to me. A drop my phone, go completely rigid, and slam my back against to elevator wall. Apparently, a girl from my floor followed after me onto the elevator and I didn’t notice. As the elevator didn’t stop, I just assumed I was alone. My immediate jump, of course, freaked her out (reasonably so!) and she also jumped backwards. To top it all off SHE APOLOGIZED TO ME FOR SPOOKING ME*.* At this point I’m just completely in shock and humiliation. I manage to choke out “imsosorryididn’tknowyouwerehere.” We don’t look at each other again. We get to the bottom floor and go our separate ways. I have no idea if I was muttering to myself (which I have a bad habit of doing alone). All things considered, could have been way worse but still…could have been better.

TL;DR: Didn’t know someone else was on the elevator. Farted and moaned the whole way down. Jumped out of my skin when I noticed the other person.
