whisper-stream
A term describing the method by which information (whether true or false) flows through a society. Suggestive of the secrecy as well as the unpredictable and unstoppable nature of informal communication. Coined by author Andrew Vachss and first published in his book "Born Bad." The term differs from grapevine, which suggests individual truths, passed from person to person.
You can't trust everything you hear from the underground — the whisper-stream vacuums up everything, gold to garbage.

whisper scream
An oxymoron grammatically, a whisper scream is rather appropriately named. Whisper screams are imitations of especially long, drawn out, exaggerated, overly theatrical screams through short sequences of whispers. This is often an expression of torment, rage, extreme delight (or other emotions) in a simple-to-do manner that is easy on the ears of the audience and easy on the vocal chords of the whisper screamer. Sometimes done with the purpose of creating comedy for the listener.

Whisper-shout
The act of screaming at someone without using any vowel sounds, so as to keep the volume of the scream down to a nominal level. Similar to the well known "SHHHH!" but it is actually a word or a group of words. Often used in classroom or library settings, it can also be useful in churches or as a warning that someone unwelcome is approaching.
You are in your cubicle talking with a co-worker about the really weird dude down the hall. As your co-worker is launching into a story about the guy, you see him approaching. You let out a long whisper-shout saying "Stoooopppppp!!!" just loud enough for your co-worker to hear. Fortunately, the whisper-shout has again saved the day, and the weird guy will not be taking you out when he goes on his shooting rampage.

Whisper Shorts
A pair of really short-shorts worn by a woman. Named so because they're so short you can see the lips moving but can't hear any sound.
