When you’re at a concert or other event and the MC tells you to “make some noise”, do you necessarily clap? I don’t. The directions were clearly non-specific. Yet everyone claps. Well, I’m not everyone.
Usually I scream the Gettysburg address as loud as I can, but really any kind of shreiking will do. Pots and pans to bang together is great, but cumbersome to carry around until they’re called for. Sometimes I come prepared with an air horn. That usually gets me in trouble because it produces more noise than was expected when the on stage request was made. But is that my problem? Shouldn’t be.
If following directions from a person with a microphone in a unique way gets you in trouble, then baby… I don’t wanna be not in trouble. I guess I’m just a rebel that way. Its part of what makes me so dangerous.
