Ok so today, a colleague of mine was discussing some baby names. She expressed to me how she would just love to name her daughter Sybil but couldn't because of that really disturbing movie with Sally Field. I stated that I thought that the name Sybil was wretched anyhow so thank God for the justice of horror films. She then brought up this interesting argument:
"I love the name Sybil."(her)
"It sucks"(me)
"You suck, its only creepy because of that movie with Sally Field. Anyway Mrs. Conklin
was thinking of naming her daughter Regan and thats creepy like from the Exorcist."
"Darling, Regan is from King Lear."
"Yeah sure, anyway I'm sure Mrs. Conklin's never seen that movie."
"...Thats a Shakespearean novel...she's an English teacher...of course she's read it."
"Oh..."
"That's like saying Tim Burton's never seen The Nightmare Before Christmas ya dope."
So i was thinking and talking about you kids today! Spring Break is almost over (feeble defeated fist pump).
