I am Stella, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges. Harumph!
Me: What’s that you say?
Stella: You heard me.
Me: I heard you, but I don’t understand.
Stella: Harumph!
Me: Why are you making that noise?
Stella: I think I am being clear. Harumph!
Me: Please translate.
Stella: Harumph – the universal sound of bulldog discontent.
Me: Discontent about what?
Stella: That’s the beauty of Harumph. It can mean anything that we want it to mean. You have to figure it out. But be assured. The next time I harumph, it will mean something completely different. Keeps life exciting, doesn’t it?
Me: Exciting isn’t the word I would use.
Stella: Harumph!
