What is that noise

[MossRoad]

I got a chuckle because I'm wired the same way. Nothing in my world is allowed to make uncommon noises.

A few times a year I have to rearrange the wine glasses in the china hutch so they don't chime when I walk by.

The only thing that would make your story better is if the noise was somehow your fault.

I have a running joke where I ;

1- Create a problem.

2- Solve the problem.

3- Claim hero status :laughing:

We just had a bought of clinking china in our hutch, too. I ended up putting a small piece of paper towel between each saucer and that did the trick. :laughing:

Someone once told me a story about locating a rattle in their vehicle. They found a nut hanging from a string inside a door with a note that read "I bet it drove you crazy". Not sure if the story was true.

When I was a kid working in a gas station occasionally we had a cantankerous client during a service. When the customer wasnt watching, we would pull a hub cap and put a couple of small nuts in.

My boss kicked my arse when it was one of his relatives but most of the time he laughed because he agreed.

When I worked for Savin Photocopiers, we always had an abundant supply of Piezzo buzzers from junked boards. Hot glue a cabinet door magnet together with a 9 volt battery and buzzer, then stick it to someones car. You can't tell where it's coming from on account of the frequency. One friends know-it-all father insisted it was coming from the nearby Atomic Energy Facility!

I know. I would have liked to do that to more people, even today, but I can't say, I would want it done to me. If you are there to see the reaction, trying not to laugh, and can call it off in a timely manner, it's different.

I had a coworker that liked to play practical jokes. He thought it would be funny to grease the door handle on my truck.

Well, I got him back. I crawled under the truck and hooked some industrial zip ties to his drive shaft and stuffed an apple in the tail pipe.

He had one of those stereos that you could hear a half mile away, and always had it blasting. He took off from work, heard a bang from the apple popping out of his muffler.

He turned his stereo down and heard the slapping from the zip ties. Panicking, he pulled into an auto repair shop to get them to figure out the issue.

Mechanic pulled the truck into the shop, raised it on the lift, then proceeded to fall over laughing Mechanic then brought everyone into the shop including the customers all ready there to show them what was so funny :laughing:

A thin strap under the door and mat, going from drive shaft to stereo would have been good too! lol
