For me the breaking the Christmas Bulbs is like loading up a slice of pie with far too much cool whip. Childish to some but joyful to me!!!!! :clap:

or up your nose, or you'll end up like Nails.

Ice cream, yum. Never too cold for ice cream. Never too hot for coffee, either.

Bummer. I can't hear a thing. Not even with my hearing aids turned on.
Other sites with sounds work fine; and I don't see a relevant setting for this site. :cry2:

I get the sound of glass breaking here on my computer setup. And it's such a quick, lite, thin shattering tone reminiscent of that very thin Christmas bulb glass being broken. Akin to the different tonal sound weight of a finger bell versus a big church steeple bell: one is lite and thin and the other sound is slow and heavy in quality.

Not hearing sound all the time? :hmm: If that happens try doing a random click on the page, and then try the lights again, you should get sound. This works for me :thmup:

I smash bulbs throughout a session.
I have a new laptop, so it might be something funny in the settings. I'm kinda militant about safe data sex. But I didn't get sounds on my old PC either.
I'll just throw another bottle in the recycle bin when I smash these bulbs.
