What you say to your helper-buddy shortly after starting out on a tedious task that has shown itself to be a lot more complicated, slow-progressing, and/or time-consuming than you'd originally expected, or to a delinquent or other emotionally/mentally-challenged client who is unable/unwilling to just give you simple straight answers.
Dr. Phil: Let's talk about your childhood.
Madea: (with cheeky cheerfulness) Let's talk about YOUR childhood.
Dr. Phil: Okay, let's try a different approach. Do you sleep well at night?
Madea (breezily): Do YOU sleep well at night?
Dr. Phil: Sigh... gonna be here a while!

Engineer Sigh

The signature sound of an overworked Brooklyn Tech student, often seen as they leave the school at 7 PM due to their stacked schedule and clubs.
Devolved from the Brooklyn Tech Mascot, the Engineer, so it was dubbed the "Engineer Sigh.
If you go to 29 Fort Greene Pl, you can see a whole chorus of engineer sighs as students come out and catch their trains.

a sigh for help

This is not a huge act of desperation like a "cry for help" such as when someone says a statement that they may kill themselves or take a bunch of drugs. This is more like someone wearing an ill-fitting and unattractive shirt or announcing that they may be changing their religious views. It's not too dramatic but there's some drama for sure.
Jeremy: "Did you hear about Ashlyn?"
Ulysses: "Nope. She do something dumb again?"
Jeremy: "Well, she wrote a poem and left it at Hugo's desk. It was about a flower or something. Hugo didn't like it."
Ulysses" "Hmmm. That seems like a sigh for help. I may need to read that poem though. I like flowers."

Mamalian sighing reflex

The album by Twitch streamer Wilbur Soot, yes, the man who married a fish, so, you might compare this to YCGMA (Your City Gave Me Asthma) which I did the first time I listened to the album, so give it a try!

Brain Sigh

When someone watches/reads the news about everything that is happening ALL over the world and their brain decides to have an aneurysm. The brain waves the white flag to surrender with hopes that heaven might be calmer.
My grandma experienced a brain sigh. She was watching the 6 pm news, held her head, and had an aneurysm. The news technically killed her?
