Or....and this is just a suggestion....or you could fill a flask with whiskey and do the same thingrabidmidget said:
Trigger happy tv had some good elevator pranks. Like setting up a toilet seat in one and then getting out the paper and sitting on it whilst reading.Every time it lands on a new floor, just look up, look slightly confused, and then press another floor.
Or wear a trenchcoat and hat whilst carrying a briefcase, then start saying odd phrases to people when there's only 2 of you in there, pretending you're a spy trying to make an exchange.

Just stare intensely at the other person in the elevator. If there's more than one person besides you, pick one and commit to it.
Pick somebody to stare it and just glare at them the entire time. If they ask what your problem is don't answer, just keep staring.
Start talking about how your sister died when the elevator she was in fell.
Act like your trying to force the doors open, making sure to throw in loud grunts and groans. When the door opens fall to your knees panting, and inform any other patrons that everything will be all right and that they're safe now.
Or bring a friend and just make out the entire time, maybe lean on other people to make them as uncomfortable as possible. The more crowded the elevator is the better.

I try to one man Barber shop the Elevator tune. You know sort of singing things that aren't words in a manly, manly voice?
If only I had more interesting friends, I could do a four man quartet...

fart and then leave the life
press all the buttons then leave the lift
use the stairs and press the buttons on the way up or down...used to do that in halls all the time.

I was in stitches for each of these suggestions, so uh, internet Hi-five!The Seldom Seen Kid said:Simple enough, just name some of the fun/annoying ways you can pass the time in an elevator.
I'll start
1. Say *DING* at each new floor;
2. Make an explosion sound effect whenever someone presses a button;
3. Call out a group hug, then enforce it;
4. Announce to all the other passengers that you're currently wearing a new pair of socks;
5. Greet everyone with a warm handshake and ask them to call you Colonel;
6. Meow;
7. If there's only one other passenger, poke them then try pretending it wasn't you.
Your turn
As for me:
*Find an empty elevator, put in a fold-out chair, stick up a poster etc. Then ask why people are entering your home/office when they step in
*Pretend you're superman by pretending that you're prying the doors open while grunting when they open
*(this one's for elevators in huge buildings) if the floor-buttons light up when pressed then try making art with them (maybe something pixelly, like a space-invader)
*if it's an elevator that can only go to two different floors then stand outside one door and wait for someone to get in. Once the elevator starts going run to the stop and yell "I BEAT YOU, IN YOUR FACE!" when they step out (like a race yeah)
Living in Britain you only have to do the most minor thing to freak people out in a lift.
Just walk to a lift and instead of turing around and looking at the door like a normal person look [b/]into[/b] the lift. Freaks people the fuck out. Or just lie down. No one wants to react.

I like to slap myself in the head and scream "Shut up! SHUT UP!", or when the elevator gets to my floor, I stall and say "Th-this is my floor! It was made for me!"
Works every time.
Also, a few years ago, I was in one and when the doors opened on my floor, I bolted out, screaming "LEEROOOOOOOOOOY JEEEEENKIIIIIINS!!" and nobody really understood what it meant except one guy in the hallway.

*Everybody in the elevator tends to face the door.
With this in mind, you simply stand by the door with your back to it.
You then face all of the people and make them feel very awkward.
->I've used this many times, and it works like a charm!
*When you are waiting for an elevator after pressing the call button, stand right up against the doors, and appear scary-calm while staring straight forward. When the doors open, if there are people inside they will begin to exit and then get freaked out for a moment when they see you there. (It works even better if you have more than one person!)
EDIT: Also, there was a time that I was on a school trip to Athens and the elevator in the hotel only fit 2 people so there was a huge line-up of people that didn't want to haul luggage up 7 floors of stairs.
--Me and my friends walked up one floor and pressed the call button, thus hijacking the elevator as it went back down and cutting the entire line.

Face all the people in the lift and shout in three second intervals "STOP LOOKING AT ME!!"
face the corner troughout the whole ride.
take a box with you and quietly whisper to it "it's gonna be alright.."
Fart and then proclaim loudly "It was meee!"
There was this list once, lessee if I can find it...
