Be Very Very Quiet

So I watched the movie “A Quiet Place” last night. It’s about these monster thingies that are blind but hunt on sounds alone. They will rip you to pieces if you make any noise and they find you. This family has to be very, very quiet living their daily lives. Pretty good movie. It got me to thinking what if my family was in this situation. We’d last about 30 seconds. I would step on a lego and let out a primal death scream, Tyler and Violet would start arguing who was being the quietest and Tasha would trip over the floor all while my dogs are barking while jumping on the trampoline. It’s ironic that our flatulence would attract and deter them at the same time.
