For anyone who has lived in a dorm setting, we all know that fire alarms are commonplace. At some point or another, there will be an annoying moment or two... or 30. We've probably all debated whether or not to stay in the dorms when we're almost positive that it's just a drill.
Here are 13 times that a fire alarm will go off.
1. You're showering
Have fun going outside when you still have suds in your hair.
2. You've just gotten into bed
While you might want to just stay in bed, you probably shouldn't.
3. You're trying to study
You're probably pretending to study while staring at your phone, but if you're actually studying, it's even more annoying.
4. You just sat down
It's like the alarms know.
5. It's snowing/freezing outside
I don't even have to explain why this is a horrible time for a fire drill.
6. Multiple times in a row
After one goes off, there should not be another for at least another week.
7. In the bathroom
Still pretty sure that the alarms know.
8. Just got back from a break
You're trying to move all of your stuff back into your dorm, and someone sets off the alarms.
9. You're Netflix-binging
While you can pause your show, it's not the same.
10. Your phone is on the charger
Have fun standing outside without your phone. It's probably going to be a long drill.
11. You have a face mask on/makeup half taken off
I don't even know how to help you here.
12. Something burnt while cooking
And now everyone is mad at you. Good job.
13. Popcorn burnt
As a subset off of 12, sometimes popcorn burns and sets off fire alarms. People are still mad at you though. Good job.
