In the annals of sound studies, one finds ample discourse regarding the phenomenon of the echo. Scholars have meticulously dissected its qualities: zenith, reverberation, and the paradoxical nature of its origination. Yet, as our investigation persists, we stumble upon an unexpected character—Professor Gladys Guffaw—whose unyielding pursuit to demonstrate the acoustic properties via an oversized megaphone leads us into a spiraling dialogue of disaster.
Gladys: "If I amplify this echo, perhaps it shall echo louder than my tenure review."
Colleague (whispering): "Or perhaps it will amplify your misadventures."
As the narrative unfolds, we observe the incongruity between academic rigor and the absurd propensity for folly. Could the echoes of Gladys' intentions resonate beyond the walls of our faculty? One must ponder if her impending demonstration shall summon either a resounding ovation or an institutional farce worthy of citation in future volumes of disciplinary humor.
