  1. How is a megaphone like life? Think about it. It’s used to be heard in a large crowd. Live your life like a megaphone. MAKE yourself heard. Don’t live life being quite when the world is filled with so much noise. Make people hear your ideas and opinions. You don’t have to live in the shadows. Live life loud!

  2. The magaphone rested limply in his hands, his blank eyes staring blindly out the window. The rest of the band was engaged in activities of various degrees of debauchery, but 2D’s drug-addled brain would only allow him a contemplative stare outside.

  3. The sound of the megaphone adjusting hurt her ears normally. Normally she would have thought of ripping it right out of the hands of the person holding it. But this time was much different. They were calling out to her husband, dangling stories above off the top of a building, urging him desperately that he still had so much to live for.

  4. He desperately covers his ears while the class president screams at him. Whatever she thinks he did, she’s very passionate about him not doing it again. He never knew someone could be so loud without a megaphone.
    “Are you listening to me?!”
    “Yeah, I’m listening,” he groans, resigned to his fate. He sighs and covers his ears for another round. At least it also blocks out the giggles from the other girls.

  5. megaphone’s amplify your voice. used by cheerleaders. loud loud loud. cover your ears when the siren button is pushed. annoying! cone like structure. lets you be heard.

  6. Shout at the top of your lungs to the world and your will never say into the megaphone the depth of human experience that emits from silence.

  9. Loud crowds control them, tell them about yourself. Inform them. Information, very loudly. Announcements. Don’t let them overpower you, show them who’s boss. Annoyances. Scream to the world.

  10. megaphones are used to express yourself to a large crowd of people. people use megaphones to be heard. It gives them confidence, and power as they speak. people often use megaphones in a public setting, so that they can reach many many many people.

  11. Loud and clear, heard above all the noise in the background. An attention seeker, and an attention getter.

  12. Say it loud. Scream it if you will, just get it out, out into the air. For everyone to hear. Got a message? Send it to the birds. Let them carry it a thousand miles away…

  13. Load and obnoxious. Filling the void of the room with soundless noise. No one listens, yet everyone has to. A symbol for power? Or one’s way to hide from the reality that they aren’t good enough.

  14. While the sun’s coming up again,
    no one around me says “Hello” to the brand new morning.
    Just give me the megaphone and hear me out.
    “Helloooooooooooooo to the world.”

  15. This thing is so load it could deafen you if its close to your ear. Sometimes it makes a funny beeping noise but i dont know why and alot of people seem more annoying when they are in posession of one..

  16. its really big and loud, usually at some sort of sports event. especially starting around the 1950s. which reminds me of the movie Grease. hahaha…john trevolta…

  17. Megaphones remind me of cheerleaders and not the modern day spray tanned barbies, but the 1960s blonde varsity sweater wearing college coed cheerleaders. The ones who hated hippies, but secretly hung out with them after the pep rallies with daisies stuck in their hair.

  18. When I was a cheerleader in high school, we still used megaphones. I still have mine somewhere in the bowels of my parents’ house. It is bright orange with a stylized “S” in blue and white. I didn’t need it though; my voice could carry across the entire gymnasium on its own.

  19. We clean up nice, so it’s not like a megaphone here or there blasting in your ear will make any much of a difference. That’s why, with regard to outside influence, we grabbed the dog by the balls and closed off any avenues for such meddling. It stands to reason that a weak resolve leads to a weak demeanor, and, my friend — we are all about appearance.

  20. cheerleaders use them, what’s so “mega” about them? shouting out of them is fun to annoy the people around you. Ingenius technology that doesn’t need to use anything digital.

  21. Megaphones are like loudhailers, everyone can hear you when you talk down them. Sometimes they come with built in music, but they are really annoying. My teacher has one that he uses to wake everyone up in the morning on the ski trip, it’s deathly.

  22. He gripped the megaphone as he continued to call out again and again:
    “Is there anyone out there?” But no one answered.
    All he got as a reply was the gentle bumping of debris against the lifeboat and the sound of the oars cutting through the water.
    “We should go back,” said one of the men. “They are all dead.”
    “No! We must not lose hope, man! How could you live with yourself knowing that you gave up while there could still be survivors out there!”
    The echo of his scream had not quite vanished yet when out of the darkness came the shrill sound of a whistle.

  23. Loud obnoxious human beings whom think they know what they are talking about but offen only copy the words and phrases of others. What do you do when your time comes to speak out. Follow your heart of course not the words of others.

  24. I had a megaphone two days ago, it was a larger type of phone. Some reason, I lost the phone though and no-one seems to have found it. I asked almost everyone I knew if they heard about a megaphone that’s been lost. My friend, also had one. We used to chat alot using those and it was really fun. Anyhow, that megaphone costed alot of money, and I hope that someone finds it soon. Thanks alot, and also if you find that megaphone tell me.

  25. The coach screamed. The director screamed. The protestor screamed. The construction worker screamed. The Megaphone had a headache.

  29. a boy with a megaphone makes hell for his neighbours. There’s a street with the name fallen and at one end lives a boy with a megaphone. His mum isn’t home. She works and the boy has no one play with; just a megaphone.

  33. My voice is a whisper, barely heard above the voices around me. Barely heard, period. I’m quiet- too quiet, or so my parents say. I tell them i’m sorry, and they might appreciate it, if only they heard it. But they can’t, never have been able to, really. They always joke that they should get me a megaphone and attach it to my mouth. And that might be alright. If I were positive that the words tumbling from my lips would be heard, I might let them truss me up and make a spectacle of me. Might, if there weren’t always the same doubt lingering in the back of my mind. The same question.

    Even if I was given a megaphone, would they not still be deaf to the words?

  34. megaphone

    “GOOD MORNING [INSERT NAME] FAMILY!!!!”

    ;)

    That’s the first thing that comes to mind.

    Megaphone…

    Gosh does anyone even use those things anymore? Besides him?

  35. Megaphones can amplify the voice so that everyone can hear exactly what BS the used wants them to hear. Usually barking orders or something of the like. Loud. Noisy. Obnoxious.

    by Teague Smith on 07.19.2011
  36. megaphones are the cliche object of preppy cheerleaders. they are shaped so that when you speak into it, an audience will be able to hear you louder than just yelling at the top of your lungs. thats all i pretty much see when i think of megaphones..

    by corinne on 07.19.2011
  37. Megaphones kind of remind me of when I was a little kid and there was this clown standing at the party i had gone to. He was not a kind of clown you wanted at a party, but he just started to scream and scream at us about how we weren’t good enough to survive in society, and how if we ever wanted to make something of ourselves we should join the marines. I was very confused and slightly mentally scarred. I remember my mother running out screaming about how the clown was a liberalist and how liberalists should not a) be clowns or b) be at 7 year old children’s birthday party. it was really awesome. It made me want to be a clown. just a little.

  38. The megaphone is a tool for the soft spoken. It yields power and a way to voice ideas that might not be heard over the hustle and bustle of many voices chattering or shouting at once. If it’s meant for the quiet ideas, why do they ones with loud ideas always utilize it?

  39. makes me think of Danny Shine and his Love Police- all his irreverence and wise silliness, talking down his megaphone and questioning authority in a a somewhat two year old way, google him, search him up on YouTube, go listen to him at Speaker’s Corner in Hyde Park on a Sunday, glad I met him, bit of a loose cannon, we need more people like him

  40. Qwerty is a megaphone.
    Qwerty likes sharp things.
    Qwerty likes you.
    I suggest you run from qwerty.
