If you try "openers" on women walking into elevators like a captive audience you deserve to die in a fire

    Counter point:
    I always liked this elevator. It picks me up when I'm down.

    In a fancy hotel, a boy got on and told the elevator operator that he was staying on the top floor. When the doors opened the operator said "Your floor, son." The boy asked why he called him son, and the operator replied, "Well, didn't I bring you up?"

    Did you ever consider thinking something is gross without wishing a painful death on the perpetrator?

    Edit: of course they didn't. Being a zealot who wants to kill their "enemies" is fine and also very worthy of many upvotes. Of course I'm evil for pointing out how fucked this is.

    I’m of the opinion it should be painful or death. People who try to pick up ladies, preach, etc to a captive audience do need the pain as they ignore words. It’s the behavior that leads to bigger problems and needs to be nipped in the bud.

    The fact that you picked defending “guys who try to pick up women when they’re stuck on an elevator together” as a hill to stand on is fucked up. The fact that you don’t have the experience to recognize that certain aggressively shameless people don’t care about a verbal reprimand is also telling.
    Now just in case it’s where the hangup is, my core position is incredibly nuanced. Reason should be the go-to and I look down on people who think they can solve all their problems with their fists. Don’t hit kids. Parts of the criminal justice system are draconian and counterproductive. The ultra rich don’t care about fines or laws and need the occasional bat to the knee.

    They’re not defending that, they’re criticizing your apparent thirst for violence. I agree with them, you seem pretty messed up for reacting the way you do.

    I also do not like the idiotic pick-up culture and I especially dislike subjecting someone to it when they cannot easily leave. It is pretty insane though to wish for someone to ‘die in a fire’ for this. And you’re either too stubborn to back down or you really (think you) mean what you say. I’m going to assume the former, which just makes you an annoying loser instead of a full-blown psycho.
