Shoosh!
Heeeey! Shoosh! Shhhhh… SHOOSH!
Usually the lead out of the majority of my sarcastically constructed sentences during phone conversations. Or any sentence for that matter. And a large percentage of comments in real life. The latter is less only because there is the added risk of physical repercussions.
The ability to be sarcastic over the phone will - eventually - prompt the ’shoosh’ response. Those that do not see eye-to-eye with sarcasm, or do not fully understand the true extent of its superiority to regular methods of conversation, will frequently be forced to fire a cold, cutting ’shoosh’ at the offender.
Serial offenders of sarcasm however, are conditioned to this response. They may even at times receive a ‘Shut it Scotty!’ or worse.. the dreaded ‘flipping-the-bird’ emoticon. These retorts are quickly brushed aside and the return to regular sarcastic programming is always imminent.
Confidence recharged, a barrage of sarcasm is always waiting just around the corner for its unsuspecting victim.
While the ‘Shoosh’ or the ‘Shut it Scotty’ are short-term solutions to this rapidly spreading problem, in the end, sarcasm will always win.
Sarcasm is a timeless classic, the craziest perspective and the the most muppet of the standpoints one can take.
With such a list of accolades, how could anyone be confused or offended by any of the forms and guises sarcasm comes in?
On a completely unrelated note; up until today, I never realised it was possible to be sexy just blowing out candles.

the question was who won the 2007 grammy awards for best female pop artist. we thought it was beyonce…ho hum.

hahaha it was so horrible. a really big announcement came on and the man with the big voice said table number15. yes…you three girls would u please not use mobiles. it is a disadvantage to others. and all the lights dimmed and this bright yellow light washed over us intensifying our look of shame and guilt. nah not really. but he did ask people to please not use mobiles. but all we were doing was swapping songs on our phone…im innocent…!!!
there were lots of questions we wished we had you there to ask…thats why you have to come. I want to win the $500 damnit!!!! xx

You sure it was Best Female Pop Artist? She won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for “Ain’t No Other Manâ€
haha.. I could come along one night maybe.. don’t want to intrude on the whole ‘girls night out’ though. Maybe you can just kick me to the kerb after its finished or something? Don’t worry, I’d find my own way home
That’s awesome. I was thinking ‘how cool!’ when you were going on about the lights shaming you.. I wish they’d do something like that in the cinema when muppets leave their phones on/talk during the film.
