1. So what did you do?
My smoke detector went off last month when I burnt dinner. I smacked the hell out of it and now it's just hanging from the wires.

6. I got out.
If I were a Repub, I wouldn't have.

3. Did you preemptively stop, drop, and roll?

8. No, but the fire alarm did pre-emptively go off.

4. Um, did you get out of the building?
Or can you not bring yourself to leave DU?

9. I wasn't on DU, so I did leave.
Last time, I WAS on DU, so it as hard. But I left then too.

5. Holy cow. Same thing here. At about 8:45.
So - was it for real, or a false alarm?

10. I'm guessing it was a fire drill.

11. Were you sitting under the alarm when it went off?
I'm assuming it's an industrial fire alarm, since you were at work. They can be painfully loud.

The alarm is down the hall, and the door was closed.
