It stayed in there for two nights. He was angry and threatened to break a chair leg over my head.




It was epic.

an annoy-a-tron is among the most annoying things ever. Every 5 minutes it plays a high pitched sound and will continue to do so as long as no one finds it.

I chose the the word epic because I was lacking other terms. My vocabulary isn't so hot at 6 in the morning.

I've put one in my bosses office on and off for the last 3 or 4 months. I move it around, change the sounds, and he has never mentioned it once. You can be meeting with him and it'll go off and he reacts by looking around, but he's never said a word.

They are great. Another good one is the Phantom Keystroker 2. I have used that all over the building (I work out of a call center). The annoy-a-tron is awesome on Cricket mode also. We hid it in a desktop machine in HR. They literally had facilities tearing everything out of the storage room next to the machine looking for the "Cricket". Then we moved it to Finance and put it in the large printer they have...epic.

Exactly. My evil side that I keep to myself gets a chuckle, but then I think how someone who did this to me would rue the day...

So someone invented something that does what g*ddamn smoke detectors already do .... wonderful.

One a different note, is there anything out there that will change the channel on my fat bitch neighbor's TV from MY living room?
I do not know what brand of TV she has, but I am willing to pay good money for something that works! [Flower]

...and one for me at work.
If someone did that to me at work, I probably would just put my Bose QC-15 headphones on. I'm also familiar with the practice and know where to look for one of those buggers (metal drawer sides and backs, inside cubicle panels, etc.)

Does she have Sat. or cable? I know DirecTV has APPS you can download to use your smart phone as a remote control. If you know who her carrier is, try it. You can mute, change channels, etc. :)

There's some pretty cool looking stuff there on Think Geek! I see a digital microscope that records photos and video to your PC, which is something I've been wanting for a long time. I think that would be very handy, does anybody know anything about them? Experiences?

Really? Is it one of these from TG? I'm looking at the $70 model, I think it would be awesome for inspecting gun parts for one thing. Man, I could think of an assload of uses for one.

I totally messed with our parts guy last year with an annoyatron.

My wife told me about them, and I got two.

He was ready to start tearing some shit apart looking for it............lol.

The TV-B-Gone is also a lot of fun, and especially useful in restaurants and the like.

There are some remotes out there that would have the reach. Working in the custom audio video realm I got a mini keychain remote at a convention one year. It is programmable so you can toggle through different remote manufacturers code sets via a combination of button presses.. Nothing like going to a sports bar and turning TVs off and on randomly.. :D

Edit.. didn't see the other posts yet about playing with TVs.. I see I'm not the only one.

Oh, I could have me some joy with one if those! I hate friggin' sports bars. I don't care if they have TV's with games on, but max. volume isn't necessary.
