Yeah, and elevator not lift...
To set things straight, I'd call it "thing that takes you up and down the building thing"...

I don't have much of a problem with calling it an elevator. My issue with "soccer" is that the only reason the word exists is because Americans already invented their own kind of "football," which, as the great John Cleese said, is actually rugby which involves "stopping for a rest every twenty seconds [and] wearing full kevlar
body armour like nancies."

Because those damn Americans were a bunch of pansies and decided to add padding and body armor to rugby. And they called it football. So they needed a name for that other football.
