rabbit no more no more rabbit
a device to stop a person talking to themselves in the street, resulting in a flush of embarrassment when they become conscious of the fact that people are pointing and sniggering. | |
I have never, ever talked to myself out loud in public, not ever! lets get that straight first of all. however people do it all the time. its quite funny to see them wandering down the road having a lively conversation with themselves, possibly punctuated with a breezy joke here and there, or really
giving themselves a hard time over something they have goofed up.
of course, the most serious consequence is when the person is so wholly engrossed in the debate they become totally unaware of the road and get flattened by a double-decker bus.
clipped to the collar or hat, a little electronic device that senses when the conversation is wholly made up of sound patterns of an identical nature will set off a pre-recorded message similar to an answerphone which shouts persistently and very loudly give us all a break and shut up!
n.b. to rabbit (as in; more rabbit than sainsburys) = comes from cockney rhyming slang rabbit and pork = talk

I only talk to myself in public because most of my friends can't carry on a decent conversation... yeah, that's it. Shut up, Brian! No! Yes! Just try and make me! |
|
|
I guess that'll put a stop to my singing in the rain and whistling in the dark. |

all fine and good po, but what about a device to shut up the voices talking to ME? |
|
|
ignore 'em General. its for the best.. trust me.. |
|
|
Well I do try po, but they say the most intrusive and disturbing things, "You are doomed", "Can I help you", "You have the right to remain silent", it's not easy. |
|
|
What about a device to tell you to stop singing to yourself, I do that a lot. For some
reason the residents of Newtown don't seem to like it when my friends and I walk the
streets singing opera loudly at 11pm on Fridays. |

With you, [waugs], the voices in my head are sometimes the only people who'll listen to me. |

I hate to disagree with this one cos the idea of a talking hat amuses me. |
|

These crazies/nutters/weirdos are not talking to themselves. They are having perfectly legitimate conversations with people in a slightly offset dimension, or angels, or ghosts and they should be feted and encouraged to share with us. |

[bliss] - were both of you in this group, or was one of you just pretending? |
