Transcription A paper attached to a street post with a picture of Lisa Simpson rocking back and forth. The text reads “Attention! Hi neighbor! Did you have a smoke alarm that kept beeping once every 60 seconds that you decided to throw in your yard out of annoyance? If so- it's now annoying me! Because guess what? It's beeping right outside my bedroom window! Every time it beeps a piece of my soul dies. Please get rid of it, I absolutely beg of you. It's been a month.“

      Nowadays in the US, where it looks like this was taken (why do I feel like I have to add that anytime I mention the US lest 50 people point out that not everything revolves around the US), that could get you shot blindly through a door as your neighbour satisfies their blood lust to finally kill someone with one of the many firearms they keep for innocent passerby they think they can get away with saying made them fear for their lives.

      It’s possible they tried and can’t find the damn thing. That chirp is just infrequent enough to make locating the source difficult.

        Solution: go to neighbor’s yard and commit arson. Then it will hopefully chirp enough to be found.
