EAS Alerts/Mocks

So you know those things that go ERRRRRRRRR 3 times then a high pitch EEEE then the voice of a tts comes on? Those are called the Emergency Alert System. You can talk about those activations here, no matter if there scary, weird, rare or normal. There are also mocks such as this one: Tornado Warning by ElectricFanatic (real alert recreated) or this one: Garfield EAS by DerpyFireAlarms Life Safety (really funny ;)) There are some real EAS alerts, but I'm too lazy to put those here. If you still dont know what im talking about: Wikipedia article

EASes scare the living daylights out of me. In my experience, the alert is an aggressive ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR that goes on for about 2 seconds, then a shorter EHHHH that lasts about half a second.

Don't get me started on the details.

That sound is why I can't get up at night, because I'm scared it'll just start playing out of nowhere.

I actually make EAS Scenarios on YouTube (https://youtube.com/channel/UCqnbxVlv–3AAnh-XSVTcIw), and I'm slowly liking the feeling!

EAS alarms… I have a love/hate relationship with them. Sometimes when they come out of nowhere, I just die for a split second and come back, but if it's in a video or a meme, that's when I like it. Because I know it's coming, I can change the volume, and sometimes it's just cool to see.

i agree. while it's happy and cheery, that's not what you need to hear when your house might get destroyed

My opinion on some common EAS alerts aroud the world:
USA: 4/10- Heard this one a couple of times, but still a little scary
Canada: 4/10- Haveń heard of this irl yet, but a little scary
Japan: 2/10- Not that scary
Germany: 3/10- Honestly sounds like it came from Undertale, but it's ok
And finally…
Chicago (It's actually a city in the US if you don't know it): 8/10- Scarier than the other ones

(Inspired by @lgbjuraj 's post on this forum)

When a meteorite is about to destroy earth and you hear Japan's EAS:
“Japan, WHAT THE <Error>, WHY THE <Error> WOULD YOU PLAY THAT NOW!?”
