I hate fire alarms. Hate. Especially in our apartment.
We disconnected the battery to the one smoke alarm. Not because we are "carefree" or whatever but because every time we use the stove the alarm goes off. Old stove. Dirty old stove. So my man is cooking something one day and this horrible noise goes off. I'm searching all over to find the source of the noise and finally find it. Another smoke detector! Older than I am, you can be sure! Couldn't find any way of disabling the thing. And what was my man doing, you ask? Sitting at the computer without a care in the world. Damn earplugs. He hadn't heard a thing! *facepalm*
