- Damn, someone beat me to it. If it didn't exist I was gonna make one and call it the "Randall 3100" aka "Black Hat 3100." 70.115.234.146 23:14, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- I think the original may be the Annoyatron, from Thinkgeek. I find references from 2007. Jordan Brown (talk) 23:35, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
Most smoke alarms are approximately 3100 Hz (the comic number). I wonder if this comic is a reference to the annoying low battery chirps from smoke alarms that can be difficult to locate. 2A09:BAC3:6227:1232:0:0:1D0:B9 00:49, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
- Smoke alarms are supposed to be a lifesaving device, so WHY the hell to they chirp at such a wide interval?! If it was once every 10 seconds at least you'd be able to tell where it was coming from. And it gets even worse if you're in a public or apartment building with over a dozen of them. 24.177.125.170 06:51, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
Devices like this but employing high frequency chirps have been around for at decades, notably from the specialty police and military supplier Shomer-Tec 71.36.121.121 03:44, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
Could a somewhat ‘living’ well dug on the ground the second best revenge in the joke? 物灵 (talk) 10:19, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
