At Christmas, there's this big santa thing that stands at the front door and sings, "Jingle bell rock" whenever something activates the sensor. WELL, one night it KEPT going off and KEPT going off. It kept me awake and it annoyed me, so, I unplugged it. HA HA santa, HA HA!
As far as burglars are concerned, I have a dog who barks at everything, but he'd only harm someone who's hurting me or my family. Anyway, he'd bark if anyone came in, so I'm protected.
