An audible sigh coming immediately after plunking down on the toilet seat before a particularly loud dump. Typically preceding a shot across the bow and very
awkward for one’s neighbors in the restroom. Origin unknown but perhaps an ironic reference to the initial sense of tranquility and
peace felt by missionaries, anthropologists and other visitors to North Sentinel Island in the
Bay of Bengal before hearing the initial volley of arrows.
It was bad enough my
dad and had to use adjoining shitters at the rest stop on the way
home but when I heard his Sentinel
Beach Resort I knew I only had seconds to cover my ears before he opened fire.
