whistle

A webcomic. A caption box reads: "Prank idea: Over the course of several months, slowly alter the whistle on your roommate's teapot, so its sound becomes ever closer to their name being screamed." The main panel shows a teapot drawn with flame-like hair erupting a huge jagged scream that spells "DAAAVE!" A man seated nearby looks unsettled, muttering about whether something sounds right and asking what sounds weird, oblivious that his teapot is screeching his own name. The votey (bonus panel) is a loose line drawing of a person's head with handwritten text curving above it: "Daave, you're not crazy, everyone else is Daaaave" — the gaslighting prank extended so even reassurance is delivered in the screamed-name cadence.
