Well, The Stones did have their "Goat's Head Soup" album, so maybe they killed two birds with one goat.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Help. How do you pronounce "satiety"?
Huh. I have always heard it pronounced (and pronouncced it myself):
Suh-TIE-uh-TEE.

Aaaaaand a quick consultation with every dictionary in the house bears out suh-TIE-uh-TEE as the current correct pronounciation. However, the Compact Edition of the Unabridged Oxford English Dictionary (yes, we have a copy in the house, it's one of the reasons I love S very much) does point out, in its article about the word "satiety", that in 1828 Walker (whoever that is) noted that SAY-shuh-tee (or something akin to that) was the common pronounciation of his day, though he protested against it as being contrary to all analogous words known. His protests were apparently effective, as that pronounciation is now obsolete.

Huh. That's how I've always heard and said it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I say "et" instead of "ate" so I'm comfortable on this obsolescence train.
But I'm probably horribly inconsistent with the word's pronounciation.

I'm very firmly in favor of archaic pronounciations, particularly when they sound cool.
But SAY-shuh-tee sounds silly to me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sillier than sa-tie-uh-tee? I don't think so. Pronunciation smackdown!
