You're all a bunch of complainers. Poker chips? Alarm clocks? How lame.

Yes, poker chips.  I'm watching TV, don't know where the remote is, and Late Night Poker or some crap is on.  I don't personally like Poker.  But it's worse to find yourself watching it.  A bunch of boring people sitting there doing nothing.  They look like they don't even want to be there.  And you can't even see their cards so you aren't in on what's going on.  No fun camera angles, barely any talking, just nothing!  And all you hear is EVERYONE fidgeting with those stupid chips.. and when the rub together.. ugh, I just hate that sound.  I name these things "audio pet peeves" because whether it's rational or not, these are things that just get under your skin.  You're allowed to complain about something too here, this is a safe place.  Doesn't matter how much or little it bothers you. ^_^

That's what inspired me to start the thread! ^.^

My Alarm clock.

It doesn't go "Beep. Beep. Beep."

It goes:

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...

And it DOESN'T STOP until you turn it off!

The DS alarm.

the DS alarm isn't bad.  I used it for the greater part of the school year so far, for two reasons.

1. the volume setting is good, it gets louder as it continues on, and you get woken up by it.

2. easy to set up.

3. my old (old as in casette tapes old) clock radio was blaringly loud regardless as to what the volume was set at, hard to turn off, and not fun to use.  it's light also woke me up before the alarm did.


but then i got a new clock radio, so it's better now.  but the DS one isn't bad in comparison to alot of other ones.

I used to use my DS for an alarm before I got my alarm clock...I hated the sound. Also, the alarm sounds like the first 3 notes of the SMW theme. Di di di, di di di, di di di

But now I use my phone, with a slightly annoying alarm, but better than the DS IMO.

meh, it's not a great alarm clock, but it was better than the one i had before that.  I just didn't use an alarm clock, and i put a piece of paper over the light because I like sleeping in the dark, not with a bright green light in my right eye.

People who click pens all the time.

I do that whenever I get a new pen in public, just to annoy people. <3

Paper scraping against paper or some other surface. I can taste the sound sometime.
