For some reason the dipshits that designed my studio decided to put the smoke detector directly outside the bathroom door as opposed to even remotely near the kitchen. Every time I take a shower, the stupid thing beeps, or goes off. I tried taking the battery out and the fucker is still beeping periodically (probably a low battery beep
).
There's a 250 dollar (!) fine for tampering with the smoke detectors in these apartments, so I can't exactly rip it off the wall and throw it in the trash. I'm beginning to think this is a plot they run to drive people insane into breaking their smoke detectors and earing a bunch of money for a 10 dollar smoke alarm.
Furthermore, I tried putting the battery back in, but I think that I just got it stuck in there, so I don't know if I can even change the batteries anymore...
Any suggestions on how to shut this thing up, besides changing the batteries or ripping it off the wall? It's driving me fucking insane.
Edit: Nevermind, I ripped it off the wall and did some Looney Tunes shit to it. Put it inside my Chronicles of Riddick box, wrapped that up in 3 shirts, stuffed it in the bottom drawer of my dresser, and closed both closet doors on it. Fortunately, I didn't walk into the main room to see it sitting on my desk, eating a carrot, saying hilarious catchphrases such as "AH WHAT'S UP DOC?"
