Hell no.

You forgot giving the fridge door a push to make sure it is closed
when
you
walk past it.



Do at work,

Don't at home because my fridge beeps like a whiny thing if it's
not
closed

First thing I'd do is remove the beeper.

More fool you. Its handy to avoid not closing it properly
accidentally.

I'd fix the magnet.

The magnet isnt broken.

If it's working, it would close easily.

But not automatically.


I'm as forgetful as they come, but leaving your fridge door open has to be
about as stupid as driving along with your car door open.


Doesn't have to be left wide open so that is noticeable.


That implies you tried to close it and failed. So like I said, you need a better magnet.

Cars that do that when lights are on annoy me to.

More fool you.

I might want to leave the lights on, for example for me to see the
gate
or
garage door I'm opening.

Even you should be able to ignore the beeping when that happens.

No, I cannot ignore noises.

Corse you can. If someone said they would shoot you
if you didn't ignore the beeps, you'd ignore the beeps.


But they'd still annoy me.


So infrequently that only a fool would disconnect the beeper.


Not if I always came home in the evening, left the lights on to get out and open the garage door, then got back in to drive the car in.
