It's already begun.

The hens are clucking.

I work with several women who are in another department but were moved into my direct area about 6 months ago. Every day they start chattering and eventually it's nothing but "cluck cluck cluck" of hens talking.

It's already begun. They're all upset that the dreadlock guy got voted off American Idol last night. They haven't shut up about it yet.

Time for the headphones.
