smoke alarms
smoke alarms should not have clocks in them. and they definitely should not be programmed to first tell me that the battery is the tiniest bit low in the middle of the night. i'm frikken asleep. and i gotta figure out which one of some 50 million is crying. ha ha. the temptation to yank them /all/ from the ceilings and smash their little plastic puck bodies with mjolnir is soooo tempting.
