Ah yes, once upon a time, I was a freshmen in university, entering a unknown building in search of the right room for a course.

Luckily I encountered some other fellow IT students, who were heading to the same room, so I joined them.

And so we went through the building.

And on.

And on.

So after I while I got curious and asked loudly: "Does anyone actually know, where the room is?"

No one did. Everyone was just following each other in the assumption the others surely know.




Reminds me of times when several of us would be standing outside a classroom door, assuming someone else had tried the door and found it to be locked.
