>Companies insisting on putting their HQs in the most expensive neighborhoods of the most expensive city in the country then refusing to pay workers enough to live anywhere near the office really grinds my gears.

What a relief Lego is dedicated to its humanitarian mission by moving to Boston instead of Manhattan! Truly looking out for the little guy... er... minifigure!

No, YOU have made that more likely. You have chosen to ignore them as an annoyance.

Whereas me? In one apartment building I lived in, I remember more than once frantically stuffing my cats into carriers, and rushing out into the winter cold wearing only a pair of pants - no shirt, no coat, no shoes, not even socks. Was I annoyed if/when it turned out to be a false alarm? Yes.

Was I any slower to do the whole thing all over, the next time it went off? NO.
