I think we need a nationwide door opening study!!!

I'm a door holder...yes there have been many awkward moments, but I've never once thought about stopping. I don't know what that says about me.

That's it, I'm going to find out if there's a study on this, and if not, I'll make my own, goddamnit! We need this data, lol.

I actually open the door for a lot more people now, too. Especially in those situations where, while I may have made it safely to the gas station door without anyone nearby outside (lol), someone is about to exit as I'm about to enter, so I just open the door, walk backwards with it, and hold it for them as they leave. The same thing happens when I leave maybe 85% of the time, so it is just natural now.

Ok, then I’ll never do it again (we men are simple rule-following creatures, you see).
