Well, if you must know, it was because he was very jealous, and I had these days of the week underpants. They had the days of the week on them, and I thought they were sort of funny. And then one day Sheldon says to me, “You never wear Sunday!” It was all suspicious – where was Sunday? Where had I left Sunday? And I told him, and he didn’t believe me: They don’t make Sunday because of God.
