... while calmly discussing what the situation does or does not call for ...
![I don’t think the situation calls for screaming, either, bro.](http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/butcher-4-scream2.jpg)
... while asking a polite question after getting your jaw accidentally unhinged ...

... while getting so frustrated watching two pilots shout everyday dialog at each other that your eyes explode into lightning bolts (I'm speaking from personal experience here) ...
![Dreads and vampire fangs, just like we did it in the old country.](http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/butcher-4-scream4.jpg)

![Seriously, doesn’t your mouth get dried out from leaving it open like that all the time?](http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/butcher-4-scream5.jpg)

![If she’s that old there’s no WAY he’s groping in the right place …](http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/butcher-4-scream6.jpg)
... while whispering for the love of Pete ...

... or just while using incredibly exaggerated gestures to show some doofus what this mysterious thing called a "bow" is.
![Maybe if the Invisible Woman and Green Arrow had a child he’d be the Invisible Arrow, but till then, you just look silly.](http://www.heromachine.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/butcher-4-g-bow.jpg)
I'm pretty sure I know now why he's The Butcher -- that's the only way he could come up with to shut everyone the hell up and get some sleep.
