“I thought: opera, how hard can it be? Songs. Pretty girls dancing. Nice scenery. Lots of people handing over cash. Got to be better than the cut-throat world of yoghurt, I thought.” - Seldom Bucket
It was only last month that I realized that I had mentally reversed the ‘i’ and the ‘s.’ Thus, my pronounciation is somewhat dyslexic. Can’t break the habit now!
I used to call it Em Pee Sims, along with a lot of people apparently. But now I think I’m going to have to start calling it Em-possums as per your suggestion…
I pronounce each letter individually, like tomndbebb and MoosieGirl. Either that, or I’ll say “Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share”. I remember at the So. Cal Doper’s meeting Melin was looking at me funny when I said Emm Pee Ess I Emm Ess.
A woman needs four animals in her life: A mink in the closet, a Jaguar in the garage, a tiger in the bedroom, and an ass to pay for it all.
