That's a surprisingly accurate assessment. ;\)

Reminds me vaguely of that Far Side cartoon, "School for the Gifted", where the kid is pushing hard to try and get in, with a PULL sign clearly marked on the door.

Perfect.

My wife would frame that and put it over my computer at work.

Good thing she doesn't read the boards ...

OK, Axiomites, please provide the caption for that photo.

My first attempt:

"OK, Noreen, when Randy gets down on all fours to do the 'subwoofer crawl', flip that switch to electrify the floor!"

"Ouch! That must have hurt! I guess we're going to need another tester!"

Judging by the captions thus far, it's clear that the general community's impression of Noreen and Amie is that they are not necessarily the safest people to be around.

Or that Peter is richly deserving of torture.

"...but Alan said we could just use a blindfold for the blind testing..."

"I thought MarkSJohnson said that the ear enhancements were painless?"

"Maybe that'll teach him to stop making 'woofer' jokes"

"...and just think, next month is KCarlile!"
