It certainly got my attention. And Diane's. I knew it was coming but I'd forgotten. Sheesh.

No surprise. We knew when to expect it.

Came right in the middle of the NPR Piano Puzzler segment of "Performance Today." Fortunately, it didn't prevent me from eventually spotting "Heat Wave" as the tune, though the Brahms-style arrangement went right over my head.
It also activated the nanoparticles in my old Covid shots, so now I can follow my Deep State orders without having to tune into MSNBC. But is anyone else having trouble connecting with the Jewish space lasers? All I can get is the Goyische Auxiliary Command station. I blame interference from CSPAN and the local pizza-delivery service.

Lol. Yes, there were all kinds of bizarre conspiracy theories going around — “turn off your phone. If you’ve been vaccinated, it’ll turn you into a zombie.”
Then again, cell phones doe that anyway, right?

It worked on my phone, too. Startling sound, isn't it?

My phone's set on "vibrate". It vibrated so loud I could almost feel it.

I was at the dentist and I could hear phones going off all through the office. Now I assume they can contact me through my fillings.

We do get them here as well. The last time was driving down the highway, listening to music on my phone through Bluetooth. Just about went off the road.

I was in a classroom of autistic kids when the sound went off. Honestly, if i had been given options, I wouldn't have chosen to be anywhere else.

Lots of noise today. It's the first Wednesday of the month, which means outdoor tornado siren test day. They did that while I was riding my bike through the quiet Iowa countryside. Almost scared the stuffing out of me. Then this afternoon the text alert test!

I was putting the final card on a castle built out of 176 decks of playing cards when it went off. Dammit.
