Do you like to yell in the house as a means of communicating?

If the phone rang for someone else at the house, or someone was at the door for another person in the house...somewhere. Or they were in some other room yelling at you. Either you walked around to find them, used an intercom system or yelled till your face was red. Do you mind yelling in the house?

7Yes!
5Only if I had to, if I couldn't stop what I was doing.
3Yes, I love any excuse to yell in the house.
3OTHER!
2No, if the person that was needed wasn't nearby, I'd remove myself completely from the responsibility of finding them.
1Intercom system all the way baby, either I have one or I am getting one.
0I would finish what I was doing, than walk over to where the person was I needed to talk to, even if it meant someone had to wait 10 minutes for me to find the other person.

Yes! It's much more efficient to yell across the house than to waste time stopping what you are doing to go find a person.

No, because I'm English and am therefore quiet and meek in a rather endearing fashion.

Really it's because I'm in the loft and people don't want to shout that loud.

NO! And Anne is always yelling at me up the freakin' stairs and it pisses me off because I can hear her but she can't hear me. I yell back and she can't hear me so she just keeps yelling like I didn't answer.

It's okay, but it annoys me when my mom screams at me to come to dinner 324932794732 times when obviously if I wanted to go and eat I was perfectly capable of doing so and yelling some more wasn't going to make me hungrier any faster

Not really. It's not a big enough place to really require yelling, but I would rather go find them and speak in a normal voice.

No, prefer to walk up to the person, and only if I had to if I couldn't stop what I was doing. Yelling is not appealing to me.

I do yell in the house in order to communicate. I don't really like to but sometimes I don't remember not to.

OTHER; similar to "the Sound of Music," we whistle for each other not in the same end of the house or property.

Is that like forgetting to take the spoon out of your cup, and you remember when your eye hurts?

I don't like yelling. I have yelled in the past, but no longer.

I might call someone if they were upstairs and I was downstairs (or vice versa) but I would stand at the bottom of the stairs to do it so I didn't have to shout too loud. I wouldn't yell for them from anywhere I just so happened to be (unless I'd had a serious accident).

No but I'd get yelled at for yelling., which is kind of ironic.

No.
I use telepathy, so much easier, I just think “PICK UP THE $#@ing PHONE!” and someone does.
