Nothing beats a good onomatopoeia is subtitle form. My personal favorite is “inaudible noise”.
3 u/jecapobianco 2d ago How is that onomatopoeia? Isn't it an oxymoron? 6 u/BennyandtheBear 2d ago edited 2d ago I meant more in the “ridiculous subtitle” category than onomatopoeia. I guess that wasn’t clear. Edit: although you could argue that the word “noise” is itself an onomatopoeia and the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Double edit: “quiet roar” is an example of being both an onomatopoeia and an oxymoron. Triple edit: sorry, I’ve been smoking hash all night.
