    They ain’t in Hell. They’re just so hidden that not even Death finds them. (Death doesn’t know the “shake the food bowl to make your cat resurface from wherever she was” trick.)

        well aCkTwAlLy in ventriloquism you replace the bilabial plosives with an alveolar or velar approximant, curving a “d” or a “g” sound to sound like a “p”.

        I can get it kinda close using the root of my tongue on my soft palate, not that I’ve done any vent stuff in a long while.

        Does Death have a tongue, though?
