Cash wins, innit

This one's a good one:
5/26/23 Skrik (n.)- a sudden fright or panic

[A# Minor]

Skrik: a painting with a really odd face...

EDIT: I found my sense of humor again (cue the triumphant orchestral music), so here we go:

5/26/23 Skrik (n.)- think of a bad clarinet/sax player. Now imagine that the bad clarinet/sax player is YOUR SIBLING, and they somehow decide they'll practice at midnight without telling you. And then you wake up to squeaking...

WHOA, THIS THING IS TRADEMARKED XD

[BlackDragonSlayer]

5/26/23 Skrik (n.)- is that thing supposed to be making that noise? I don't think that thing is supposed to be making that noise.
