I'm not eligible for this, but to me, the sound of sharp involves a thumb, and it sounds like "Whhoooaa"!!:)
 
* Sung to Simon and Garfunkel's Sound of Silence

Hello sharpness, my old friend
I chased you with a strop and then
A vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sharpening
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of sharpness

I chased you with water stones
Even tried a cobblestone
‘Neath the halo of a work lamp
I held the blade in a steel clamp
When my finger was stabbed by the flash of a pointed knife
It gave me fright
And touched the sound of sharpness

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand grit, maybe more
Edges talking without speaking
Cutting paper without ripping
Edges splitting a single hanging hair
It made me scared
Inside the sound of sharpness

Fools, said I, you do not know
Sharpness like water flows
Hear my words that I might teach you
What lapping films really can do
But my words, like finger guillotines fell
And echoed in the depths of sharpness

And the people bowed and prayed
To the bevels that were made
And I shouted out a warning
To beware the edge forming
And the blade opened smoothly riding on little ceramic balls
They heard the call
And whispered in the sounds of sharpness


:confused: I'll just see myself into the nearest psychiatric facility. Cheers.
 
The sound of the super glue cap bouncing on the floor as you open it up for a quick repair on the other hand. ;)
 
I suppose to "sound" sharp, what was heard would need to cut, so - the uncomfortable truth about ourselves we do not wish to acknowledge might cut most keenly, or perhaps, what we most need to hear.
 
The sound of sharp is usually the the scrape of my chair backward from my desk, followed by stomping down the hall to the bathroom to get the first aid kit, more often than not, accompanied by various words you shouldn't use in church.
 
It's like the sound Mariah Carey makes when she swan dives off of an eight foot tall pile of dead chinchillas into two tractor tires full of cherry pie filling in early September. Except a little more tinny.
I would watch that. :thumbsup:
