It's amazing that people can just tolerate or not be aware of things like this.

My nemesis was one of those round stick-on LCD clocks that used to be popular.

The designer apparently thought that emitting a single beep every five minutes or so would be an awesome low battery indicator.

I didn't know what kind of thing was making the beep, naturally, which was unhelpful.

It took about a month of me slowly going mad before I finally found the thing at the back of a desk drawer.
