Sunday Schadenfreude – I'm The Pat In The Box

Comic writer, illustrator and host of the Loikamania podcast, Pat Loika was leaving his office on Sunday night when the elevator he was riding in stopped dead. Now lucky for Pat and us the wifi still worked and he got to tweet his way through the hour plus wait. Here are his tweets in order.

Of course, I get stuck in the elevator on my way home from work. Ugh.

The one time I take the elevator, I get trapped in it. Take the stairs, kids!

I apparently have 30 minutes to wait fake someone to get me out of here.

Hi elevator. I'm Pat. We're going to get to know each other for the next half hour. #elevatortweets

This elevator is starting to feel like a sauna. I would like to go home now.

Ahh. 20 more minutes to find a technician. Why do I work here again?

— Pat Loika (@patloika) July 7, 2013

@patloika Isn't there like a call button or something?

.@acomicbookgirl yes. Unfortunately the technician is on a break. And they could not find him.

"Pat, we think you're stuck between the first and fifth floor." Genius. This elevator only goes to the first and fifth floor.

I apologize for all of these tweets from being stuck in an elevator. Unfortunately, there's not much I can do in here.

I can at least say that they are trying to get me out of here..

— Pat Loika (@patloika) July 8, 2013

It has been almost an hour since this whole thing began. I'm just tired. And thankful for the wifi.

If I knew it would take so long, I would've started a rewatch of Avengers, which is loaded in my phone. Hahaha

An hour and 15 minutes later and they're still trying to figure out what's wrong. I just hope they have a manual. Or something. #Loikavator

This ordeal would make the worst comic ever. Page 1. Elevator stops. Page 2. Pat tweets. Page 3. Pat is tweeting still. Page 4. He tweets.

MOVEMENT. There was movement. Time to put the shirt back on. #Loikavator

— Pat Loika (@patloika) July 8, 2013

The elevator is MOVING, guys! But it's sloooow

— Pat Loika (@patloika) July 8, 2013

I may have sweated most of what I are yesterday in this ordeal. #Loikavator

— Pat Loika (@patloika) July 8, 2013

Like the nerd that I am I waved my hand at the elevator door as it opened. #Loikavator

— Pat Loika (@patloika) July 8, 2013

And now I am free. Thanks for the company, everyone. #Loikavator

Pat vs Elevator. Did anyone think it would end any other way?
