it took me forever to figure out when I heard "sinjun" on various BBC programs, it was "St. John".
Me too. I don't think it was until I saw a Jane Eyre production from PBS. Which may have been when I was 16.

I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

I just realized I am wearing a skirt that I've had since I was 19. And that was 14 years ago. I guess it is sort of classic?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
All my clothes wear out much faster than that.
Hmmm... wait, I think I have a few t-shirts that old.

Well, it is silk. And I don't wear skirts too terribly often.

Is Worcester generally pronounced "wooster", or is that a weird NE thing (we're also good at mangling French and Native American words)?
The british pronounce it wooster

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Every few years my SIL attacks my closet and gets rid of everything I haven't worn in the last year. It is traumatic, but necessary or I would still have every piece of clothing that from 1986 on.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I love this mental picture. I think of your SIL in fashion camo, armed with scissors and a measuring tape.
