Now this might seem too petty… but I have a serious problem with my UPS. First, it’s not a totally UNinterrupted power supply. Everytime the mains go off, or there’s a fluctuation it resets the computer! Defeating the reason for it’s existence. So I consulted some “experts” and they said my old fashioned CRT monitor is a power hog and this delicate, tiny, flower like UPS can’t take the load. So I got 2 delicate flower like UPSes.
Now when the power goes off, they reset the computer and monitor separately. Progress!
But that’s not the problem, obviously the problem is when you have two UPSes in your bedroom and (horror of horror!) you forget to turn them off at night.
If any of you work in a UPS company: Seriously guys, What.The.Fuck ? ?

ROFL! This is a brilliant one!
Keep creating them
haha EXACTLY ! When you are tired off the day and go to sleep, the light goes and my two UPS go BEEEEEEEEEEEP BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP … I can understand you bro
Too much! LOL
HAHHAHAHHAHAHAHA…..Oh yeah…my aunt once called up to enquire how to turn off the UPS….
GOOD ONE SAAD!!
Dude I totally agree.
This is probably part of a huge conspiracy by the UPS manufacturer’s to take over the world.
DUDE! H2G2 REF FTW!!!
Aargh! You remind me of my creepy UPS tone. Gives me the shivers within when I think about it!
awesome….buddy…
one can laugh his wits outs….
Why did you not buy a LCD monitor instead of another UPS? LCDs do not consume as much power as a CRT and 1 UPS would have been able to handle the load …
The comic was very funny BTW …
Exactly why I bought a laptop for myself and let my younger brother handle the pc with the stupid UPS! But that one only emits a beep once and shuts itself, not sure its good or bad..
Exactly.
Hey Saad,
This was awesome! Clearly goes to prove aliens have control of our U.P.Asses…before they begin control of our minds.
Keep em coming.
S.
“Mostly Harmless” they thought..
forgot about the UPS
fundamentally faulted: Uninterrupted Power Supply?
Bullshit.
when I had one, it would reboot the comp too.
and the beeping increases before it goes out for good.
might as well connect it to an inverter
bah.
…
oh yeah: good one
always like sumit.
it is sumit isn’t it?
the guy with the glasses and the PC.
his ‘herbal viagra’ one is my favorite
@everyone: Thank You
@Xacarob: Yup, that’s Sumit. Who are you? Hope Sumit’s not being recognized on the street by people saying… “Hey! Aren’t you the herbal viagra dude? Autograph?”
omg…. i cant stop laughing…. now i knw why i blogrolled u but not forgetting to visit u again…
time to get a laptop perhaps!
This has to be one of the funniest strip on flyyourfools and the grandma’s rebirth took the cake…way to funny man
@saad: don’t worry, I don’t know him personally or anything
i just know his name for some reason
think i saw it here somewhere…
i love his expressions.
and your use of them
From Australia’s deep south, “Crikey mate, I can’t hear the bloody cricket score over that blasted bleeeeeeeep. Where the hell is that coming from?”
I had the do it yourself version like the guy above, it never let me down, I ended up selling it though, FOOL. Thanks for the humour, I’ll come back for more.
@kevin: I’m more interested in knowing how you ended up on this site. We don’t get many from Australia’s deep south…
It’s not just the UPS makers.
Why does my water filter make stupid loud noises every time the power comes back on?
Some idiot deliberately programmed that in, and added components and cost, to achieve this annoying result.
Hilarious
Just too good
ROFL…
nice comic !!!
i like the alien puppets where u get them
this was frickin hilarious!!!
ROFL …..

Itna sanaata kyun hai bhai! Grr…rrr , when r u putting up the next strip?

)
WTF!
Enough,
time for a new post.
Next time you tweet, it better be after a comic,
and the comic better be funny,
and long,
and worth the fucking one month long wait.
saad akhtar, we know where you live.
Behold, It is the end of the world, bitches. Saad getting threats. (Cant get that line out of my head)
All you have to do is put the toe guy on every couple of days. Mindless cattle are easily entertained.
ROTFL!!!
Are u scared ?
I don wan no trouble here… Here, you can have the toe nail guy’s original photo. Get it framed, fap to it… I don’t give a shit.
Yay!
*sigh-of-short-term-appeasement*
*fap*
lolz…I can understand..but look at the brighter side the aliens will choose your house to land in the whole wide world
You’re a genius. Keep up the good work mate.

Well to be completely fair – they need the beeping noise because sometimes during the day when the power goes off, old biddies like my dad wouldn’t realize it was time to shutdown.
What, have you been to our office? That was VERY deja vu.
Hi Saad,
I have eagerly waiting for a new comics man.
Please take your time man, i understand you might be busy these days.
absolutely! that bugger has often ruined my slumber…its like an alarm to wake you when the power’s out before and denying u any chance of sleeping right through the power cut.
Thank you, Saad. This strip made my day. I discovered how to turn off the shriek on APC UPSes and used your strip to illustrate it. http://jace.zaiki.in/2009/09/14/disabling-the-alarm-on-apc-upses
that man in the black coat should be a MBA grad Manager & not an Engineer.
imagine stayin in a hostel, you get a corridor full of upses goin berserk at the same time. real loud and irritatin
omg! you guys have read hitchhikers??
restpec \m/ |-_-| \m/
Love that you included Norway in this. REPRESENT!
Your comic inspired me to do this:http://ritesh.posterous.com/getting-rid-of-the-annoying-ups-beeps . Long time stalker, first time poster. Love this comic!
Nice comic indeed. Very funny. Many UPSs come with an option to switch off or even program during what hours it should beep. Luckily my APC Back UPS has that option and I have made it only beep in day times and not in the night.
