A Humorous Side Note

A few months back, my parents installed a new Eufy doorbell camera. On one particular day, they were eager to test it out. When the doorbell rang, my Dad quickly rushed to answer the door through the app on his phone. Unfortunately, his excitement got the better of him, and he accidentally pressed the microphone's 'record' button, capturing a small, snore-inducing symphony for all visitors to hear. We had a good laugh over that one!
