Is it true that they put glow-in-the-dark paint on the handle to mark who pulled it?
Sounds like an urban legand to me.
I lived in the worst dorm in the college i went to. Every Saturday @ 2am exactly the alarm would be pulled. They used the paint after about 2 months to catch the guys. (was about 4 people from another dorm doing it)

fortunately the fire alarm pulling craze stopped here, which is good. But for the past month I have been TASing in the cold, because there is no heat in my room. I swear to god, I was TASing with gloves and a jacket on. no joke. I just got it fixed today with a bonus external heater radiotor next to my desk, but the month until today was unbearable.

It seems like the fire alarm pulling has just started here. There really weren't many problems during the school year, but there have been two alarms in two or three days during this finals period. One of them was at around 2:30 A.M. today, which was very annoying and somewhat confusing when I woke up. Hopefully that'll be the last of them...

I've had it go off twice here, but both times were people burning stuff in microwaves. The best story I have is of the building next to mine, however: don't ever put plastic in a toaster.

I swear to god, I was TASing with gloves and a jacket on. no joke. I'm starting to admire you. Every post of yours I read it seems like you have more and more desire to put overtime into TASes. Me, on the other hand...I'm just a lazy bum.

well, the heat problem is gone, but now I think I have tennis elbow or something... my right elbow does have an internal pain when I hyper extend it. and the last two weeks have been finals week, and I've been planning my time more around how much free time I can work on Jet Force gemini and still have time to study for finals. so yeah, putting in overtime is a very accurate term.
