Argh!
There’s a sound effect in the song I’m listening to right now — “Useless (The Kruder + Dorfmeister Session)” by Depeche Mode, off of Remixes 81-04 (Limited Edition) — that sounds nearly exactly like the “pop” noise iChat makes when I get a new message from someone I’m not currently in a conversation with and a new window pops on screen.
I looked around my screen three times in a row before I figured out where the “pop” noises were coming from.
I’m a dork.
“Useless (The Kruder + Dorfmeister Session)” by Depeche Mode from the album Remixes 81-04 (Limited Edition) (2004, 9:07).
