Oh, and I looked up "tsk" in the Britannica, and it's defined as a suction sound. Which is pretty much what the cc was spelling out, and I can't quite say t-s-k and still suck. Quite the opposite, really.
And we live to fight another day.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The status is NOT quo.
The thread title is very appropriate tonight.

My brother is 25. Or 26? I think it was just my family's warped humor. See: lizard tongues. We didn't discover C&H until well into my teens.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can't actually make any english phonemes out of that suction sound, so I'm willing to accept tsk as what it's "called."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"tsk" is like the sound you make for a horse to giddyup, or if you want to get a dog's attention.

BMECT... no, it really does, since I didn't know people used the same sound for both. And neither of them are anything I'd use to a person to indicate disapproval.

Nuh-uh. For a horse, you do the sucking on the side thingy.
Oh, and I never want to get a dog's attention so I wouldn't know about that part.
I wish I weren't full, because I feel like eating popcorn. Maybe just a salt lick.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I just feel bad for all you poor limited people.
Come with Lee and me to sushi some day.
YES, THIS!
I want sushi, but mostly I want dinner, which is 33 minutes late, so far.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
white asparagus from Germany...
Even the asparagus is white!
"Tsk" assuredly needs inbound air. Elswise, it is a !click.
