Writing Prompt: Yackety Yack

February 2010
There was a song years back that went along the lines of “Yackety yack – don’t talk back.” If you know the song, I apologize for your current predicament of singing “counting flowers on the wall, that don’t bother me at all…” and so forth.
I came up with the yackety yack theme when I wanted to pound my head on the desk after realizing just how long I have been sorting though junk mail and spam comments and other assorted things that make me want to scream “don’t talk to me!” at all the spammers out there.
So, your assignment: write a scene in which one of the characters uses “Yackety yack” in a phrase.
