thinking about how i had a bit with some online friends like a decade ago where we would just say [animal noise] at each other sometimes. the idea of a non-specific "animal noise" being so extremely funny for us to imagine that we'd burst out laughing any time it was said.
in remembering it just now, like lightning, my brain connected it to toki pona. we were just mu-ing at each other.

nowadays i still get a kick out of the concept of a generic animal noise with my vocal stims. i make cute little non-linguistic noises that sound like an animal but not any one in particular.
muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu mu mu mu mu mu mu
