My favorite: 'ACCCCCccch'. It sounds like a Klingon choking on a hairball, or like a Nazi with a stutter having an especially difficult time with a particularly unpleasant word. It's a nasty nasty nasty sound, but it helps me to feel like I'm far more refined than the people around me... and it's usually the adults who do this one. Therefore, I like it.
My least favorite: 'Wayyyy-ayyy-ayyyy-ayyy.' This is typically followed by some hushed princessy shrieking and babyish pouting. I think I hate this one the most because of the personality type usually associated with it... a kid who gets upset because he/she actually has to DO something. For this kid, doing anything that isn't an extremely easy game with a big reward is somehow obscene. |
