Hn. My smoke alarm keeps going off. Very irritating.

Stop setting the house on fire.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

There's no fire! Probably. There isn't any smoke, either! I don't think.

[pretzelcoatl.livejournal.com]

You took my answer!

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

You all lack faith.

[pretzelcoatl.livejournal.com]

But at least we have fire extinguishers!

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I think some might be in this house somewhere!

[unicorn]

In your not setting the house on fire?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

Yes. In that.

[unicorn]

But it seems like such a likely thing...

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

Dude, the fire department's only been called on me once.

[unicorn]

Have I heard this story? Do I want to?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

When I was five after I'd taken my bath and my mom left me in the bathroom alone I decided to see if some tweezers would fit in an electrical socket. Have you heard this story?

[unicorn]

I don't think so. Unless this was also the time when your house actually caught fire.

[regeneration.livejournal.com]

Fuck, I lol'd.

[regeneration.livejournal.com]

Hit it with something!

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

I'm tempted to take the batteries out!

[regeneration.livejournal.com]

Do it!

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

You aren't supposed to, though. Something about forgetting to put them back in later and then dying when the house burns down and you had no warning.

[regeneration.livejournal.com]

Or alternatively, the beeping could drive you mad until you stove your own head in. It's a lose-lose situation, really.

And if it keeps going off for no reason, then how will you know if there's a real fire or not?

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

Er, it could alert me to use my sense of smell?

[regeneration.livejournal.com]

You mean you wouldn't smell it anyway?

[elaine-miles.livejournal.com]

WHERE THERE IS SMOKE THERE IS FIRE! OR WEED!

[elaine-miles.livejournal.com]

ALSO! IT OCCURS TO ME THAT IF SOMEONE WHERE TO SET FIRE TO A GROW HOUSE WORLD PEACE COULD BE ACHIEVED!

Maybe the batteries are at equilibrium dead? Smoke alarms make noise when they want to feast upon fresh batteries.

[rocknload.livejournal.com]

That's it, I'm pretty sure. I think it'd be shrieking if it thought there was actually a fire.
