I work in a hospital. Yesterday, I entered an elevator along with five other people. Among them was an elderly lady stooped over her walker who was standing behind me. As the elevator proceeded to the first floor, the old lady let out a moderately loud (and alarmingly bubbly) fart. The other four people tried hard to suppressed laughter, and I turned to the old lady an said, "I apologize if I got anything on ya."
When the elevator stopped, the other four people exited, and I stood aside so the old lady could exit first. On her way past me, she looked at me, winked, and said, "Your mother raised a chivalrous man. Thank you."
You hear that? I'M CHIVALROUS, BITCHES!

So you are saying you stole her thunder?

Back to that 'getting used to vs. liking' discussion? Do you want to tell us how much Win 10 is like your farts? 
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

My farts smell better than Win10.

I will take your word for that.

I think your observation will get more comments than the rest of your post.
Depends, most of the time they don't bother me. On the other hand, I've had to leave the room if I've eaten something that doesn't agree with me, had heartburn, etc.

I think you might have just negated the act and are again neutral.

I'm surprised you didn't turn around and say "I see you're using W10 too."

And it wasn't even their floor!
Well done, by the way.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

So am I.
A couple of years ago, I was vacationing in California and I visited a Santa Monica mall. I was heading for the escalators and arrived at the exact same time as an elderly lady.
Naturally, being well raised, I stepped aside and let her on first. When I got on, She turned around, looked at me like I was crazy, shook her head and exclaimed: "You're NOT from around here!" 
Maybe I should've just farted on her?

On the chivalrous thought, have you ever wondered about why the males allow (let) the females to exit the elevator, go out the door, whatever, first? I think it is so the deadly ninjas outside can get her while you get prepared to go all Bruce Lee on them.....
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, navigate a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
