Elmhurst eye-rolling incident raises questions

Those folks wouldn't like me. I got kicked out of a city council meeting once . It went something like this;"Sir I fail to understand why the council is so concerned about a well maintained screen room attatched to my house which was apparently installed without a permit 12 years prior to my purchase of the house.
You as a group have spent great effort in trying to force me to tear down this screen room while you refuse to do anything about the owner of the house nextdoor renting to illegal aliens. There are windows broken out of the nieghbors house , there is usually a large pile of beer cans in the front yard and the renters sell weed off the front porch but you're worried about my screen room. Are you all per chance regular customers of the dealers next door?" The council members were apalled , the people in the room cracked up and a city cop escorted me from the room.

Perhaps it is the combination of rolling eyes and sighing that trigger ejection. Just make sure the rolling eyes emoticon does not have a aural component and you should be okay.

I'll speak to Adam about adding an exasperated SIGH to the "roll eyes" smiley.
