Person a: "I'm so glad we're all friends again after what happened between us."
Person b: "Dude, stop saying the name of silence FFS!"

H(ard) A(s a) M(otherfucker)-radio silence. When you don't reply to someone because you're genuinely super busy with the real world.
Sorry for the HAM-radio silence. I wasn't ignoring you - I just got roped into a big cleaning sesh at work. Wanna make out?

We need to silence this old associate who was working with us on the drugs business. Silencing is a verb.
