Scott sent me this. The best part, clearly, is the explanation of what the (alleged) alarm (allegedly) sounds like. whoop, whoop (with comma). However, if you hear that noise, it may be a very reserved person cheering.
And you have to dial 9 before dialing 9-1-1? After you hear the alarm and determine that it is, indeed, an alarm and not a white person celebrating. That's gonna foul people up.

That's to get an outside line. I have to do that at my work to call 911. But here we have actual alarms with actual sounds, so it might be a different meaning there...
Holy "crap"! I'm so excited to see this sign! We were at a hotel in Chicago and they had the same sign!! My boyfriend and I spent all night saying it and falling on the floor laughing!! Even without the amazing misuse of quotation marks, "sounds like a WHOOP WHOOP" is the best title for a disco song EVER!!
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

I think this should go in the Classic section.
Strobes AND whoop-whoops? Sounds like a party. Do not dial (9) 911 in such an occasion.
Tag Team back again check it, Wreck it - let's begin
Whoop there it is.

"Benny, you did it again! The quotation marks go around the quotation itself, not the part before it!"
"You mean that wasn't the quotation?"
"One of these days, Benny..."

So, the alarm sounds like Curly... great. That'll at least get all the females out of the burning building, leaving the males to attempt eye-pokes.
I think this is the best entry I've seen on this blog (thus far)-- or at least it's up there. ROTFLOL
