Hi, Kellie, you might be able to say "Get out of here." with clenched teeth,
but you will note there are no Ses in that sentence. Now if you were to say:
"Slimy, scurvy, snake." then you really would be hissing.  
Regards, Kim. P.S.: Glad you enjoyed the lit crit. K.

Hi Kim.
I enjoyed your bit of earthy literary criticism. One correction though; one
can hiss "Get out of here." I've done it when I couldn't speak because of a
sore throat, and I've done it when I was so blasted angry I could hardly
speak. It works astonishingly well!
I hope neither of us needs to try this soon though, Kellie, with big smiles
