walkie-shoutie
A walkie-shoutie is like a walkie-talkie, but better. The improvement is that you have to shout into it. Try merely talking into it and it will not work. Weird and annoying, and, quite frankly, we have no idea why these ridiculous things even exist.
Manufactured by Mgadigadi Technologies. Known users include Moira Memphis and Georggina.
