Right now my downstairs neighbor is blasting Christmas music, and singing along very loudly and VERY off-key. And it's obvious that she thinks she's a good singer. She does that thing with her voice... what the fuck is it called... that Whitney Houston does really well? Some singers do it when they sing the Star-Spangled Banner to make it sound more interesting and more like their own... but in reality they just sound stupid and unoriginal. They'll be singing, and they'll take the end of a line and unnecessarily drag it out by adding 5 million syllables to it. It'll sound something like, "Oh say does thaaaat Star-Spangled Banner-er yet Waaa-aaa-aaa-aaa-aaa-ave" and they'll add different notes to the "aaa-aaa-aaa-ave" because they want to sound soulful, but they usually can't pull it off because they're the whitest people alive. What the hell is that called?
She's doing that right now, and I want to shoot her in the fucking face.
