outlaude

Homophone of “outlawed.” That awkward moment in a classical concert when you're the only one in the room refusing to clap between movements.
“Why didn’t you clap after that beautiful piece? That was rude!”
“You’re supposed to wait until the end of the entire symphony to clap. It’s distracting between movements , and I don’t care if it’s outlaude.”

“You know that guy is totally angel retentive.”

Parannoya
