    good god the teenager audio test noise is possibly the most annoying thing ever.. I can't wait until I'm older (26 now) and can't hear that anymore.

    I can't say no to a car ID quiz.

    I got 95%. Misidentified the old Camry, and USA's top selling car.

    I liked the test because it wasn't just showing you a picture, you actually kinda had to know stuff. I got a 98%, missed the Camry as well.

    My little brother and I will complain about the sireny sound that the tv makes, and mom and dad have no idea what we are talking about.

    The teens in the high school I work at say that their cell phones have a ring tone that teachers can't hear. I figured this would clue me in. I heard the sound on the web-site however. And I'm no teenager.

    I believe them though cause some kids freak when it goes off. They complain that so and sos phone is annoying them.

    That sounds nothing like a mosquito, but it does remind me of Deep Purple's "Machine Head" tour, and what I was hearing a week after the concert.
