My apartment has a very convenient bathroom. You just press a button and wait until a sound effect announces that there's enough water in the tub. Today, however, a different sound than usual played. When I entered the bathroom, I was met with an empty bathtub. I must've pressed the button without plugging the tub drain first. The electronic system apparently noticed that I hadn't put the stopper in the drain and, not wanting to waste water, notified me about my carelessness.
