Alis girls Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 The other evening I was switching ES's computer off and before the tuneful "de de de deeer" music I heard a loud male yawn. OH, my dad and sons were in the other room with door shut so I knew it wasnt them. I rushed into sitting room and told them the computer had yawned when I switched it off. "yeah mum yeah whatever" ES said snidely - I suspect one of them has downloaded something not intentially. Last night it did it again and frightened me to death. OH came and switched it back on fiddled and switched it off and no yawn. So they have ordered van and men in the white coats. Typical only does it for me - its like it knows twilight zone music heard in background Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reikiranf Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Typical! It's a bit like when I hear a strange noise and neither DH or DS who are in the same room can hear it Although I think it has been proven that women can hear sounds at higher frequencies than men, but TBH I think that males just have selective hearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yvonne Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Do you have Skype ? That makes a noise like a yawn when it shuts down. In a way, I hope it's not that as I prefer the idea of a tired PC having a yawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majorbloodnock Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Perhaps you weren't turning the 'pooter off after all, and in fact it was only snoozing..... OK, I'll get my coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 Yes we do and I've just told OH - wow thanks - I will send the men in white coats away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Reminds me of an old cupboard / sideboard we've just bought that makes a bang / bump noise. I thought we's inherited a ghost, but realised it's the wood expanding when we light our open fire. I'd have been spooked at the yawning computer.

snowberry Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 (edited) Yes we do and I've just told OH - wow thanks - I will send the men in white coats away Aww! I like the men in white coats They take me to the ball pond to play. It's loads of fun & very bouncy. however, they are mean & take all the balls away & there's no one else to play with Edited November 5, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
