My voice usually reaches shrill point when i am either deflecting something i've done wrong by blaming someone else for something entirely different/or even related (I'm quite good at that to be honest, i use to do it in raids alot >.>) or when i'm being a 'drama-queen' about something.

Most of my family would say that everything is drama to me D:

Upwards inflection would be the easiest way to say it without sounding like you're trying to be a smart arse prick if say you are trying to say to someone "OMFG STOP USING 'an excessive rising clausal inflection' WHEN YOU TALK"

Also cart... that quote be from Calvin and Hobbes?

The raptor bit?

It's from Jurassic park, when the raptor goes around the hunter guy waiting for her with a gun, sticks its nose through the foliage about a foot from his face. Then mauls his face off.

Oh yeah... well there's a coloured strip of Calvin imagining Raptors attacking his school and it starts out with kids playing something then hearing a noise, glancing sideways and BAM..... the old raptor in the face.
