About the Tribunal.

We Got Shushed At was founded in 2026 by a small group of overly-loud people who, frankly, had it coming. After accumulating 412 documented shushings between us in a single calendar year, we did the only reasonable thing: we started a publication.

We are not anti-shush. We are pro-context. A shush at a midnight monastery? A noble act. A shush at a Premier League football game? A war crime. The Shushing Hearings & Adjudication Tribunal (SHAT) exists to sort one from the other.

Every dispatch published on this site has been reviewed by at least four lawyers, two librarians, one flight attendant, a cinema security guard, two small dogs named James and Fluffy, and a large dog named Pablo.

This is satire. Mostly. The shushes are real. The verdicts are binding.
