Fixin Stuff- Tuesday- 2nd period
Was something burning here in the Danger Shop apartment?
"Smoke alarms!" Nick announced.
Sorry to your ears, class. This was gonna suck.
"These are lifesavers. But mostly they just scream at you when you've been cooking. Now, there are what, probably three common times you'll hear these bad boys. First, when there's an actual fire and you need to leave the building immediately. Second, you cooked something Abd there's the tiniest bit of smoke. And third, when it's two in the damn morning and it's beeping at you. I'm the third case, the beeps mean different things. It can mean the battery needs replacing, or there's a malfunction, like dust in it. You can keep the manual or look it up online. When that happens, you have to remove the smoke detector from the ceiling, make it stop, and fix it tomorrow, because what're your really gonna do at two am?
"Now, to make it stop... we'll there's just no good way to do that, but there are some common techniques. You can get on a chair, pull the alarm off, and hit buttons until it stops for real. Or if you don't have a chair, ir have some aggression, you can beat it into submission with a broom."
And with that, Nick opened the oven, and the smoke from the burned cookies poured out, sending several smoke alarms screaming.
"YOU ALL HAVE ONE TO TAKE CARE OF. THE SOONER YOU FIX IT, THE SOONER THERE'S PEACE!"
Did anyone even hear that?

OOC
I learned this when googling "am I gonna die" when my alarm started going off in the middle of the night when I just moved into my new house.
