You've probably heard the Wilhelm Scream dozens of times in different movies and television shows without realizing it, but it's one of those things that once you hear, you'll always be able to identify it afterwards. It's now become an in-joke amongst sound editors who try to insert it into their films whenever there's a perfect moment that just needs an over-the-top scream. It began as a Warner Bros. stock sound effect, but was revived and put to serious use by Star Wars sound designer Ben Burtt. Now the thing just won't die.The i09 site traces the scream back to an actor Sheb Wooley but I know the true origins of the scream:

Eek! People are still pushing the false Howard Dean meme! Even Bill O'Reilly gave up on that crap.

Thanks for fessing up.

You know I love Dean. c'mon.
I know. I'm just a whiner.
Ask Randal, he'll tell you.
That made me like Dean even more than I did, but, alas, it was too late.
