Oops?

So we bought these devices you plug into the wall and then plug the Christmas Tree lights into, that allow to switch them off with a remote control. Unfortunately, just now, turning them off in a still and quiet house, I discovered they're also setting off the neighbours door bell.

We're really sorry Paul!

That sounds mortifying, but it also sounds hilarious. I hope your neighbor is good-natured about this so it can be a funny story for many family gatherings to come!

*laughs and laughs* Definitely a facepalm moment. ;P

Poor Paul. He gets all excited, thinking he has guests, races to the door, and...cruelly kippered.

Oh dear! That's one of those situations where you're mortified if it's happening to you, but giggling if it isn't...

[afuna]

Oh, hee. At least you figured it out eventually!

*sporfle*

Oh, dear.

Funny and yet, not, particularly if you're Paul. :)

It's the most elaborate non-game of Ding Dong Ditch ever! Poor Paul, and yet, hee!
