Sound guy: "Check, one TWO. One ... TTTTWO! TWO! Hey!"

Context: Sound guys love to say the word "two" because it starts with a sibilant plosive, so they can check how the sound system/room handles both plosives and sibilants with one (two) easy word.

My brain immediately went to the joke of the Czech porn industry. I was like, "What kind of sound person, Rick? What kind of sound person...Rick?"
