Survivor started up again last night, woot. Interesting twist this time. Four tribes, one tribe of older men, one of younger men, one older women and one of younger women. Should be interesting.

Anyway, after Survivor C.S.I. comes on. I really enjoy the show, been a fan for years. I do have one major issue with the show though, it’s a common issue I have with movies and TV shows. They just happen to be one of the worst offenders of it. What is it you ask? CMSNC or “Constantly Making Stupid Noises Computer”

Ever notice how much noise a computer makes on TV or in the movies? It’s absolutely ridiculous. If my computer made 2% of the noise one of Hollywood’s computers made I would be forced to go postal. Seriously, whenever they drag something with their mouse you get a sound effect, every time they press a key on the keyboard the computer emits a beep, if they start to search a database or something watch out, sound effects galore. Image, if you will, the next time you defrag your computer or run your virus scanner if the program had sound effects to go along with it. Imagine being at work if everyone’s computers was playing this cacophony of sounds, murder rates would sky rocket.

You can have fun with this and make the sound effects yourself as you work on your computer. This is especially fun at work or at internet cafes.
