A hackneyed cliche in the making

'That sound you just heard was <inaudible action'>

e.g.
That sound you just heard was me rolling my eyes
That sound you just heard was Donald Rumsfeld rolling over in his grave
That sound you just heard was Michael Moore <something salty>'

Next time you hear this phrase, think of me and smile. The sound you'll hear will be me smugly nodding in recognition.
