because of reasons which I don't really want to get into publicly right now.

Anyway, the biggest reason appears to be resolved (yay) and so I bought a smoke/co detector yesterday. Surprisingly pricey device, and I accidentally got one that needs an electrician, so I'm returning it. But! While I was there I decided to take another step into functioning adulthood and also purchase a pair of fire extinguishers, one for the kitchen and one for the basement.

Now, the fire extinguishers have a little plastic tag around the pin stating that we remove the pin before using the device. Fair enough, but what I can't figure out is this: am I supposed to remove the plastic tag now, or does it come off on its own when I pull the pin?

I was born in 1976. The first house that I lived in that had a smoke detector was in 2001...

the law was that landlords only had to install them in brand-new-built homes, older homes were grandfathered in...
