If you know me well enough, you know that I enjoy bringing "out of the ordinary" things to school. My decision to bring this item to school changed the way we viewed school completely. The item was? You may ask. Well the items were a twin set of walkie talkies. My little sister had gotten them for Christmas (last year). I decided it would be funny to actually act out of of me and MOW's (friend from school that I will not reveal the name of so I will call her MOW) awesome dialect. It went like this: * disclaimer, the person who I was mocking had a Russian accent and since I can't do a good one it sounded bad. Russian's I love your accents, they sound cool. Please don't get offended!*
Me: *really bad Russian accent* 11 to 14
MOW: *american accent* Yes?
Me: *really bad Russian accent* Bring in ze dogs
We thought it would be really funny to reenact that over walkie talkies. Apparently we didn't know how walkie talkies worked. In case you don't know, they work like this.
1. Select which network you want to use.
2. Tell the people you want to connect with what network you're using.
3. ANYONE ELSE WHO IS USING THAT NETWORK CAN HEAR YOU!!!
4. THEY CAN ALSO SPEAK BACK!
5. If you're doing this at a school with very few networks, you WILL choose one that is being used.
Of course we didn't know this. We choose the network 1 and 1 which we didn't think people would use. So I walked away from MOW to do the little play. When I checked to see if the connection worked, MOW said her full name, which sounds very different when the network is static-y. The person responded, Who is this "Snow Walrus" and Why are you on our network!!! We freaked out and put our walkie talkies away, but now whenever I'm bored I call MOW the Snow Walrus.
