  • skipvia In sibling strife when Joy meant
    to cause bro' Kent annoyment,
    did she, for her enjoyment,
    place into her employment
    oinks and grunts, a ploy meant
    to tease that little boy Kent
    through ceaseless loud aboiement.
    To be corrected by Laurent--
    It's really pronounced aboiement. Mar 21, 2010

  • oroboros I can whistle some bird songs, especially mountain Chickadees and lesser Goldfinches. But I always say "quack" to Crows, Steller's and Scrub Jays...just to piss 'em off! Oh, and mooing at cows, and calling all dogs "Ralph" is always fun! "Hey, Ralph! Howzit?" :oP Aug 8, 2008

  • evin290 A guy worked at an ice cream shop I liked to go to who had Tourette's and barked like a wounded dog when people came into the shop. o___O Jun 28, 2008

  • reesetee I keep doing this to myself, don't I? ;->

    Yarb, I'd be more than happy to give an example of a bird noise I make frequently--but since this isn't Soundie, I'm afraid I can't see my way to it. Also, you may want to follow skipvia's advice....
