MyLifeIsAverage - Life is pretty normal today

The other night, I was walking to my apartment after my night class. As I was waiting to cross a road, a car stopped at the light. All four doors opened and 3 guys and a girl got out to run around the car screaming, "Chinese fire drill!" I got excited and joined in running around the car. After a minute or so, one of the guys yelled, "Everybody in!" Somehow, I ended up behind the wheel. The light turned green, so I turned and drove down the road to my apartment building. I stopped, turned off the car, thanked them for the ride, got out and started running up to my building. While I was running, I heard one of the guys ask, "Who the hell was that?" This was easily the proudest I've been of myself in 4 years at college. MLIA

I love love love chinese fire drills. A van full of me and my friends did one once while waiting in traffic coming home from a music festival. There were literally about 60 or so people walking to thier cars watching us as we did it. It was lots of fun. No one joined us however =/ but the car behind us did one as well.

[ - ] JJTGood: 14Bad: 73 years, 7 months ago

I learned that the harmless things we say as kids are unwise to say as adults. I was giving a sales presentation in a small conference room to several Asian graduate students. Half-way through my talk, their professor entered the room. Everyone jumped up and changed seats, to make room for the boss. These words actually escaped my lips: "Wow, looks like a Chinese fire drill!" Surprisingly, they did not buy my product. [True story: Case Western Reserve University, ~1998]

did this by chance happen at a university in hawaii? a very similar situation happened to me. i, a female, was in a car with 3 guys when we did this, and a random student from campus jumped in, and we gave them a ride to their dorm.
