Or are these hooligan teen cones, caught in the act of a fire alarm prank? – Ms. Fix-It

The newest upgrade to the Cone of Silence?????
What people don’t realize is that the cones are there to warn people about the crack in the floor. It’s only duct-taped to the fire alarm to stop people from moving or taking it.
Maybe if I duct tape myself to this fire alarm, noone will notice me….
Let me attempt to assess the situation. *takes deep breath* The little cone is to alert people to the larger cone which, given it’s size, draws more attention to passersby anyway but can’t qualify currently as a safety cone because there is apparently a rule somewhere that says cones can’t serve in two different capacities at the same time meaning that the larger cone can only, for now, be a prop for stabilizing the fire alarm switch that is strangely in the smack dab middle of an entrance for large vehicles which doesn’t seem very safe to me at all but is besides the point since it appears the real problem is that the switch has already been pulled for what must have been a fire somewhere else than what is visible in this picture because there isn’t anything I can see here that could be considered remotely flammable and, therefore, needing a fire alarm switch in the first place.
*gasping for air* Does that about cover it?
No.
:-O You stinker! *shakes finger at LGB*
I actually practiced saying this comment to make sure I could squeeze everything into one breath. Of course, I had to talk like the Micro-Machines guy to do so.
Are you the one that wrote the 26 pages of instuctions for making brownies?
“Daddy!! I finally found you!”
“Pumpkin? What are you doing here?!?”
“I came to rescue you. My God, Daddy…what have they done to you?”
“Look…forget about me. *cough cough* You have to go before the guards come back.”
“No, Daddy!! I have been searching for months trying to find you! I won’t just leave you here! I can cut you free.”
“No, you can’t. I’m tied to an alarm that is rigged to go off if you try. Listen…it’s too late for me. Sweetie, you have your whole life is ahead of you. Besides, someone has to tell others of what has been happening here. I love you so much! *footsteps of approaching enemies* Now go!!”
Write screenplays much?
No, but now you have me wondering if maybe I should.
This is what happens when traffic cones reply to the “extend your penis” spam emails.
The cone later went to the doctor complaining of burning.
No Wait!! there in the back ground it’s a…..yeh… it’s a cardboard crushing dumpster. I heard they are very flammable. It’s a 1 and 1/2 cone danger assessment.
Don’t be alarmed, son- this is what happens when you cross the line.
I cannot think of a more appropriate use for a hazard cone…
No, wait, I lie. Put this on someone’s head.
This is a repair from the previous kludge, where the alarm was attached to a broom handle.
The broom caught on fire, and no one could pull the alarm.
Secrect Agent Cone, Secret Agent Cone…There’s a Cone who leads a life of danger…To everyone he meets he stays a stranger.
It’s just a distraction to get passerby to fall into the adjacent tiger pit, cleverly covered with, ah, cardboard.
Goes to show how bad the economy is. Even traffic cones are taking up second jobs now where they can.
Is it take your son to work day?
But, if that’s a “cone of silence”, will the Fire alarm still work?
We have an extension cord duct taped to the top of one. Makes it easier to use and it tips over instead of pulling the plug out.
OMG.
I work for the company that makes this pull stations. I can’t believe that this is installed in the doorway and in the air at the same time.
Don’t worry it’s a low voltage anyway.
Still ROFL
