i'm so glad i'm on graveyard this week. I go to work in about an hour but i feel bad for the people waking up early tomorrow. In the apartments it's a high pitched beeped that is obnoxiously loud and outside there are sirens and flashing lights. good god.

it's been about 20 minutes so far. a water pipe busted in the theater (was going to watch Lost there tomorrow). :'(

That reminds me of my college days when I lived in a dorm. We had several late night fire alarms. Some pranks, some people not knowing how to use a microwave, etc. Class the next morning always sucked.

Your apartment building has a theater?

People are dumb. Where I used to work, some idiot microwaved a fast food sandwich in its aluminum wrapper. The sandwich literally blew the door off the microwave. OK, then the idiot took the now burning sandwich and ran it out of the breakroom PAST several sinks, out into the hallway, and into the mens room and threw it in the trashcan there on top of all those paper towels.

That's horrible. It reminds me of people at my last job putting a bag of popcorn on for 30 minutes

No matter where I've worked, no matter who I've worked with, it seems like the odds of anyone successfully popping a bag a popcorn without burning it are 5 to 1 against. They really should ban microwave popcorn in the workplace. The office will reek of it all day.

Not to mention if someone decides to microwave curry or seafood for 10 minutes so it's piping hot, everyone gets to enjoy that smell allllllllllllll day. $:-\$

The alarm just turned off. Thank Christ.

They set off a fire alarm when there's a flood, heh.

How big is this theater you can reserve? I'm frickin' jealous.

You should totally hack the fire alarms for your building to play "Chemicals Between Us" as what gets played when the alarm goes off, Mups.

The sign on the door says Occupancy: 18 but it can really fit like 30.

the screen is I think 208" with 7.4 surround sound and a 1080p projector.

apparently all the equipment was destroyed. It was a pipe between the first and second floor and it came down through the ceiling into the theater and ruined the projector and screen and all the chairs along with this touch screen on the side where you could pick dvd's stored in a 500 disc dvd changer.

500 disc dvd changer....

Hopefully they build an even more kick-ass theater now.

That's what I'm hoping. They had a nice collection going there too. A bunch of big ass action flicks and just epic movies that were awesome to watch on a big screen. Hopefully that didn't get fucked up.
