You oughta know not to stand by the window…
The clanking of the pots and pans happened at 7 pm. Unruly 2 year old behavor. Followed, or concurrent with, the unleashing of the car alarms– Triggered, if you will. A flash mob in an environment where flash mobs have been outlawed. It passes for social interaction.
Every year, beating July 4, the signs are put up warning of your use of fireworks showing a cowering dog. I suppose such edict works then but not for this.
It is Howard Beale urging a shout of “I’m as mad as Hell, and” etc. without a message. A loud audible “uh”.
