Five places to yell

For no reason holds lines about nothing, such as "The soup has been warned!", for a kitchen or a quiet house. At a game holds cheers for any team. On a hike holds calls for an echo point or the top of a climb. In a play holds lines to burst in with on stage. As a battle cry holds charges for a pillow fight, a sprinkler or a pile of leaves.

Where shouting is welcome

Yell where it bothers nobody: in the stands, on a stage, in your own yard, or at a lookout with no one resting close by.

In drama class, draw from In a play and build a one-minute scene that ends on the line.
At an echo point, shout once, then stay quiet and listen.

Questions and answers

What are some random things to yell?

Lines about nothing, said at full volume: "Long live the left sock!", "Onward, to the fridge!" or "Bring me my second-best hat!" Choose For no reason and press the button for another.

What are funny things to yell at a game?

Cheers that fit any team: "We believe in the bench!" or "Thank you, referee!" Every line in At a game is a cheer. None mocks a referee, the other side or a player's mistake.

What can you yell to hear an echo?

Try "Hello, other side!" or "Canyon, say something nice!" from On a hike. Those lines are for a valley, a canyon or a marked echo point, away from people who came for the quiet.

Are these lines safe to yell in public?

They were written to be. No line is an insult, a dare, a call for help or a false alarm, and none names a real person, team or place. Stop if someone asks you to.

How this list was compiled: Written for this page on 2026-10-08: all 150 lines and the note under each are our own wording, and no list, book, film, show, song or site was copied. The five groups are our own sorting by where a shout is welcome: For no reason (at home, about nothing), At a game (cheers from the stands for any team), On a hike (calls for an echo point or the top of a climb), In a play (lines to shout on stage) and As a battle cry (a charge before a pillow fight, a sprinkler or a pile of leaves). House rules applied to every line: it is not an insult, a dare, a call for help or a false alarm, so it cannot be taken for an emergency; no cheer mocks a referee, the other side or a player's mistake; and none names a real person, team or place. The note under a line says where or when to shout it. Compared on 2026-10-08 with every other list on this site: no line repeats one. Licence: Own work.
