A similar suggestion to the other poster:

Try relocating one of the troublesome units to someplace nearby but not mounted to the ceiling. The top of a bedroom dresser, the floor, a bathroom countertop, the top step of the stairs, halfway down the stairs, hanging from a wall (picture hook)… just get creative.

And since you haven’t mentioned it, I presume these are all smoke detectors? Do you have any heat detectors or carbon monoxide detectors installed?

Back in the Before Times of Reddit, there was a guy who knew quite a bit about vacuums. Did an AMA at least a few times.

Long story short, powders such as baking soda or any of the common ‘freshness’ options damage vacuums. Avoid using them.

I’ll be the dense lunkhead and ask/say the obvious:

I’m guessing you were trying to find a specific, older movie?

OT, but now I’m disappointed to have discovered that LMGTFY’s SSL throws a NSURLErrorDomain error. I would have used that instead.

Don’t forget AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Towing Service

Never Surrender: A Galaxy Quest Documentary

but not until after you’ve seen GQ :)

After I’d watched the documentary, I realized there were some clever nuances/cinematography, etc that I had missed the first couple times I’d watched GQ. Ended up watching GQ soon after that once again.

It’s one of those quirky movies that’s worth rewatching from time to time. Like The Princess Bride.

You are in for a treat, friend. Watch it when you have the time.

(Galaxy Quest, as the other poster mentioned.)

Proper air-drying is key. Gotta maximize the surface area. If there’s a gentle breeze nearby, all the better.

Living somewhere where you can use a clothesline would fit this most times (ie, if it’s not raining all the time).

I’ve taken to using a checklist on my phone that I update daily. However, remembering to use it is still a problem at times.

So my B-tier power would be Remembers To Use Checklist At Least Once A Day Man.

Trade-off: anyone you want to be intimate with falls asleep from your relaxing touch.

So much for sexy time.

The trade-off is you now have a 1d4 chance of stepping on LEGO bricks in the dark. Even if you don’t own any LEGO.

A residence floormate I knew back in university also worked as a bartender at a hotel.

His one story relevant to this thread is he once poured a drink for a customer over ice without measuring it. Think scotch or whiskey. Customer said there’s no way that’s an ounce. They argued for a bit; my friend poured everything from the glass into a shot glass minus the ice, and it was exactly on the line. End of argument.

He admitted to me that some of that may have been water from the melted ice.

In my teen years I used to be able to do a pretty solid rendition of a dentist drill. Much to the discomfort of everyone within earshot.
