"WEEP WEEP WEEP" goes the crosswalk signal.

"VROOM VROOM" goes the bus.

"CRUNCH CRUNCH" goes the blue cheese salad in my mouth.

"BLAH BLAH BANG STRUM" goes the ugly middle-aged band at the so-blah benefit show.

"SMILE SMIRK GAH" goes me.

"CLICK-CLICK" goes my computer buying Modest Mouse tickets.
