No, but I’d take the red pill
Hmmm….
I’m more of a Band-Aid ripper than a button pusher.
My husband would push the button for sure.
Yes, close my eyes, push it and hope for the best!
I’d probably put a cover over it so I didn’t push it by mistake. And I’d think about it all the time: what if…?
No, but someone keeps pushing mine.
If I had to, sure. I already sort of did.
Not without knowing what would happen if I did.
Is it labelled “Don’t Push”?
Way back when I was working on computers that were as big as refrigerators, with a row of disk drives the size of washing machines, there was a large, prominent red button that was labeled “Emergency Use Only.”
I eyed that button for months before finally asking the service rep what kind of an emergency would call for use of the button and what the button would do. He said to use it if there was a fire or other disaster in the computer room, and that it would cause a guillotine-like blade to come down and sever all the wires, to protect the CPU and the storage devices from being wiped out by electrical zaps (or words to that effect).
I did order a cover for that button—a small plastic hood that could be removed easily—just so no wayward fingers (such as my own) would be too tempted by curiosity.
Yep. As long as it isn’t red.
i used to keep a Charbroil grill ignitor on my desk at work. Every guy would pick it up, push the button, and get zapped. Some did it twice! No women ever pushed it.
I did. A little sign lit up, saying “Please do not push this button again.”
No, but I would rub it gently in a circular motion.
This reminds me of all the times I’ve wanted to press the red alarm button in elevators. The glory of that button—perfectly red and glossy, not dull and faded like all of the other downtrodden plebeian buttons.
Only on Tuesdays and only if it’s purple.
Doubtful. The only instance I can think of is if the Nazis or similar were on their way to take my family to the ovens. If I can target them specifically…kaboom!
I wouldn’t push it. But I’d probably watch from a bunker via satellite to see if anyone else would push it.
Reminds me of this video.
You can’t pull the lever until you press the button.
Then I’ll hotwire the bitch.
I’d flip the switch before I pushed the button and then I’d probably turn the knob just to be safe, but not before entering the alphanumeric code on the keypad. Ha thought you had me didn’t you?
@Blondesjon I’m guessing I will want to do it more than once.
