Rest in peace

My fan has finally spun its last round. Yes, the very weird fan that take five minutes before it starts spinning. I just witnessed its very noisy death. It sputters and whines almost as if in protests to me not allowing it to retire quietly.

It just stopped. In mid-spin. I refused to give in, switching on to a higher, more powerful mode. Sputtered even louder, making threatening sound like the blades are going come flying in my face if I persist. Again it stopped. Pitiful wheezing sound this time, the engine emitted, blades slowing down.

Well, I guess it's really time for me to get a new fan...
