lol college dorm doors suck

[drinkmorejava]

Last night we got bored so we rigged hangers to open doors. Just slip it underneath, catch the handle, and pull. Has everyone done this, or are we just loser engineering students?

Loser engineers.

Not all doors are handles, some are knobs..

No, most nowadays have to be handles due to ADA legislation.

ZING!

Welcome to freaking 9th grade, Einstein.

Me and a buddy of mine figured this out first year of high school, we both had a wire hanger in our lockers at all times. Pretty much we had access to anywhere in the school.

In the last Air Force dorm I stayed in a lot of people did this. Needless to say, many people were missing their iPods and PSPs.

The Air Force may design their doors for disabled Americans
but the Navy uses <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US<img src=---i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif--- border=---0--->fficial_s&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=watertight+doo

But you could always get in through the escape hatch!!

For some reason, in my post above, the link broke and I am unable to edit it to fix it.

Hopefully this attempt works better.

wish we could have done that when i was in the dorms. $25 for a lost key (first time. $50 the 2nd) sucked.

though i only lost it once and the residant let me in heh.

The link worked in the preview ... I think the URL broke the link.

EDIT:
one more try ...
watertight door

At UIUC, the handles are knobs (at least in FAR).

Once again we are reminded that no matter what anyone has ever done, you always did it first and did it bigger and better!

ever try the opposite and "penny" the door?

and for the older crowd, a great practical joke was using the 33 rpm albums to pimp people on the other side of the door

Care to explain?

Yeah we did that in college. And then shut off power to their room. Since everyone only had cordless phones, all they could do is yell out their window to try to get help.
