Does anyone else shout ‘INCOMING’ loudly in a quasi military voice when sending an e-mail to their partner who’s sat in the next room?

No.

No, but I do shout ‘…AND STAY OUT!’ after releasing a load and slamming the bathroom door, making a fast exit down the stairs.

why are you sending someone in the next room an email ?

No, but I do shout “Roadieeeeee” if I see someone pedalling a road bike while I’m in my car.

surely the OP should be shouting ‘OUTGOING’ and his partner ‘INCOMING’

?

“Inbound, strength 1” is regularly used for emails, tea or if you’re about to launch a biscuit to your colleague several desks away.

No, but I do shout “Roadieeeeee” if I see someone pedalling a road bike while I’m in my car.

I shout “BR-R-R-R-R-R-RADLEEEEEY WIGGINSSSSSSS!” in a slightly Pakistani accent. My nephew (age 6) now does this also… So proud.

There’s a guy in my office (open plan) who speaks very loudly. It brings about thoughts involving death, more quickly than I’d have otherwise expected.

I use that same “INCOMING” should to alert other riders in my group of cars or fast riders approaching.

I also should “HEADS UP” at pedestrians who randomly walk into the road.

I always shouted G A A A Y Y YYYLOO O O RRRD!! when I saw a roadie which my two year old son got on board with.
I stopped it when he started nursery though

Not when sending an email, no. Maybe shortly before making my way to the clean up area and making use of the dunking beaker 🙂

Got into the habit of shouting * U N I M O G * any time I see a Unimog, done it for years, I have no idea why.

I shout ‘Look where your effing going you effing moron’.

I shout ‘Look where your effing going you effing moron’.
I bet you have to slow down to get all that out.

Maybe he manages to moderate the pace of delivery and volume to take account of the doppler effect so that the pedestrian hears the whole message at the same volume and speed?

She’s working on her laptop, I’m buggering about working on my PC, I e-mailed her a link (actually an item off here – dogs in car park cartoon).

’cause they are awesome? I do it too!

If the kids are in the car, I’ve always shouted ‘ANY BOATS?’ when driving over a bridge, and ‘BAA’ and ‘MOO’ at sheeps and cows (respectively).
My kids are now at secondary school and find the whole thing quite tiresome.

If it’s a young person (ie less likely to be at risk of a heart attack) sauntering into the road with their face in an iPhone I continue on my course which takes me right behind them, and I say in a normal voice ‘heads up’. This generally scares the crap out of them and hopefully makes them remember to look next time!

I cannot help saying in the style of Police, camera, action.

“He’s crashed, he’s crashed, he’s crashed” at any bike or car crashing…

I was in a cycling club with a guy who worked in the engine rooms on the ferries on the Western Isles.

He was the loudest man Ive ever met. Couldnt help it, although I think he was a tad deaf.

I use INCOMING when Im going to fart, after seeing this years ago, it just sort of stuck 😀

Ha ha. I thought it was just me…

in the style of Police, camera, action.”He’s crashed, he’s crashed, he’s crashed”

I do this anytime the set top box, xbox, laptop etc. crashes. I don’t think my kids have seen police, camera, action though. They just think I’m a nutter dick.

Reply #2. I’m on my PC, she’s on hers. We have different tastes in porn.

and ‘BAA’ and ‘MOO’ at sheeps and cows (respectively).

Yup, I do that too. Although I’ve worked out they both actually say ‘Meh’, just in different accents.

I also cut out and stuck on a duct tape mustache and walked into the supermarket with missus and youngest (13) doing my best Peter Sellers French accent. Needless to say he wasn’t impressed. Missus is used to me being a dick so wasn’t phased.

could anyone please enlighten me as to when and where the best time and place to repeatedly shout BOLLOOOOOOOOOCKS!!! at the top of ones lungs might be..?

I’m a great believer in primal scream therapy and after a very debilitating bout of severe depression in my 20s I cured myself over the period of a year or so with a LOT of shouting.. I was really rather drunk for most of that time though and quite happy to shout when and wherever the hell I felt like it..

Being sober it all seems a bit more technical..

any ideas…?

I thought it was the law to shout UNIMOG when you saw one, so relieved it’s abnormal

The kids and me used to shout ( Norbert Dentressangle )
when we saw one of their lorrys who ever saw it first wins

I just shout MOG, love them, want one to turn into the most awesome day van/camper/race van, no problem getting stuck get down any lane any where.
