At college (a long time ago) I was on the top (8th) floor .....and the elevators often broke. Got my legs in GREAT shape though.

Strangely, it is designed to prevent a worse situation - a recession or a depression. That is the NATURAL cycle of economics. The world has ALWAYS had recessions. We remember MANY growing up and later.

There is nothing "natural" about our current inflation, nor was it "designed" (the actual opposite of "natural") to stop anything...

One of mine is public swimming pools.
Yep, and not because I not a very good swimmer, but because
I get the feeling of entering other people's bath water,
YUCK.

I guess I'm just not a water person.

What's yours?
Stairs with no backs, as in bleachers, ladders, etc. I feel like I am going to fall through.

Flying in my husband’s little plane. Barf. Sorry, Mike, if you see this…

People who are intolerant of other people’s cultures and the Dutch.

This is what I'm thinking especially the bladder issues seniors have.
