I know we've moved away from the mispronunciations but I have two more to make megan's head explode. There's Port Mouton, NS , which is pronounced as "Port Matoon", and L'Ardoise, NS, which is pronounced "Lordways".
Love makes you do the wacky.

Ruth away, though we may need to get JZ in on it, too. Which would be a tragedy, you know - all of us hanging out and stuff.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
My day has caused me shriftian levels of rage.

Hivemind, activate!
Um, does anyone know anything about Masonic symbols? And the word Yessop, associated with a ring? DH was surveying a house today with what he thinks was a ton of masonic stuff, and that was written on one of the walls, but neither of us has ever heard it associated with the masons before.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I am ruthless about my own stuff. I moved around a lot growing up and got used to the regularly scheduled purging of stuff.
And, in the apartment before this one (I've only lived here about 9 months), I only had 1 smallish closet and 1 extremely small closet in a pretty small apartment (not Trudy's NYC apt, but still only 475sf). I got used to purging on a regular basis and being very selective about what I brought in to the space.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I'm about to do a purge. I've had my summer clothes out long enough now to have a feel for what will get worn and what won't. I tend to wear more than most though, hating to re-wear something in a 3 week period or so.

I have a huuuuuge closet for clothes.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
My strategy is not to buy new hangers. When new clothes are bought, old clothes have to leave. FIFO, generally.

I did a purge the last time I moved and took everything in to the theatre. As a costume-type person, I really hate to get rid of anything that I might need for a costumes, but I ended up taking about 30 trash bags full of clothes that were too small for me (I have ranged in size, since 2000 , from a 4 petite to a 20 petite). I have actually pretty much held at an 18/20 for about 4 years, but I went from the 4 to a 14 in about a year, which was a little freaky.
