To not understand why shouting is "fun"?

Ok I am possibly suffering from PMT given that this is my third AIBU in ONE day! But anyway....why do people yell, scream and shout as part of the "fun" of an occassion?

The neighbours are having a bit of a fireworks thing and part of their way of celebrating seems to shout WOOOOH!!!!! AAAAAAGH!!! WEEEE!!!! at the top of their voices. Angry they're also counting EVERY firework down before it goes off.

They have about 4 kids there..smallish ones...and the noise is awful! We had some fireworks too but we simply watched them and did the odd "Oooh!" and "aaah!"

Why are some people so LOUD!???

do you sit on rides at the theme park in silence as well Hmm go in shut the doors and windows and chill the fuck out .

Sound's like they're enjoying themselves, the bastards.

I didn't post this on the annoying things in films thread, but it really gets my goat when someone goes down a slide, up in the air etc, and feel the need to bellow, " wooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

Just squeeze your eyes shut and squeak, that's the way!

ICameOnTheJitney · 05/11/2013 19:33

I'd never GO on a ride in a theme park! I'm 41! Why would I do that? I just want to know...do people enjoy screeching? Or is it something people can't help when they get happy? I can help it! I never scream!

I think you are definitely suffering from pmt. Please do whatever you do to soothe yourself be it Cake or Wine or Brew. In fact, why not have all 3?

ICameOnTheJitney · 05/11/2013 19:33

Ooh and I love your username!

Screeching enhances pleasure. Trufact that I just made up.

Try it when you're having a shag and let me know if it worked for you. Grin

p.s. heartshape, even for AIBU that was arsey. Would you like a nice cup of tea?

Mylovelyboy · 05/11/2013 19:36

Chuck a bucket of water over the fukers. That'll shut um up Grin

Meglet · 05/11/2013 19:36

yanbu. I don't really scream or squeal over anything. I was silent in labour and will be silent watching the fireworks. Although I'm an introverted no fun zone so possibly not the best person to ask Grin.

ICameOnTheJitney · 05/11/2013 19:37

Red thank you very much. I've had a can of coke and three hotdogs. That's my limit!

God, it's their garden, it was like, quarter past seven when you started this thread. YABU to be so bothered by something so bloody minor.

More anti-social to gripe about it than it is to do it!

KerwhizzedMyself · 05/11/2013 19:38

It's one night a YEEEEEEEEEEE-AAAAAAR

RunRabbit · 05/11/2013 21:25

Annoys me too. Some people are just loud/like the attention.

Retroformica · 05/11/2013 21:35

Some people just have big gobs. They can't help it

I think you should train a machine gun on their garden - that'll learn em! Wink
