Now thats REALLY annoying
No not Symarip's trombone music although that qualifies...No, the research library here is doing a Holloween Week special trivia game and the winners are given these prizes..Little stuffed monkeys that are also rubber band throwers....They also have a little button that if you press makes the monkey screech...LOUDLY!!! And since my cube is near the library I have had to listen to this ANNOYING sound over and over again today! Garrgh. Next time pick something that doesn't make noise...:headbang:

5. True. But its not the worst...
They give us little "gifts" around the holiday time...Last year it was a wind up powered flashlight. Kinda cool actually but it had an alarm that if you slid the on switch too far on would go off...I had to listen to that all day as well...:eyes:. Why can't they just give us stuff that doesn't make noise?
