While you're watching your quiet ones across the street, the noisy ones are creeping up behind you on the side of the street you're on with a machete, sword, or gun ready to cut, stab, slice, or shoot the next one that tries to call them a bitch, even if most people don't take them seriously or seem to notice them.
