So in the mail we got a magazine with all the candidates for the September 13th vote for NYC Mayor. I was thumbing through it, looking at who I think would be a good Mayor [based on "oh hes black" or "oh shes a lady."]
But I did find one guy, Christopher Xavier Brodeur. He has alot of unusual proposals, but he's pretty awesome actually.
36.
BATHROOM DOORS MUST OPEN OUT----NOT IN
Whoever the genius was who made most bathroom doors open IN (so I have to touch the filthiest doorknobs on earth to get out) didn’t know what he was doing.
My plan is simple:
all future bathroom doors must open OUT so you do not have to touch it with your hand. This will not only be more convenient, it will reduce the number of colds and other bacteria you catch from other people.
There is no problem too big or too small for me to fix.
Because I actually care about your quality-of-life.
Crazy, hm?
He's like a real guy, I like him. Needless to say he'll never win, but still.
