Y’all Torture Me Home:
"Anyway, I believe it is essential, in a free society that finds itself threatened by a ruthless enemy, to distinguish between torture and something pretty irritating. Otherwise, what’s next? Are we going to ask the President to ban the act of singing to oneself in a high, tuneless quaver from the next cubicle over? (Hi, Maureen!) Are we going to prohibit people from screaming such things into their cell phones as “WE JUST LANDED! IN THE PLANE! ON THE RUNWAY!” or “PRESS DOWN HARD ON THE VEIN AND SEE IF HIS EYE POPS OUT!” or “I CAN GET IT ABOUT HALFWAY UP THERE AND THEN I USUALLY JUST COMPLETELY LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS!”"
