    That’s what ups are for.

    When I was in the navy, when the ventilation would go out there’s a fire somewhere (real or excersize). There’s a fan next to your head in your bed (annoying AF). When it would go out, you’d wake up in fear, jump out of bed and put on your clothes asap before the fire will be notified over speakers. After 5 months at sea, I couldn’t sleep without a fan next to me. Waking up in fear multiple times every night. Luckily that’s all over now. Now I can’t sleep because the world is so fucked up.

        A superstition that fans must not be left running constantly.

        Trains in Korea periodically restart the air conditioners in the cars to say that they weren’t constantly running.

          Locked in a house with a killer fan that has a mind of its’ own!

          Ma’am, we’ve traced and located the source of that breeze, it seems to be coming from…
