Mrs. Buttersworth Has A Name

I read that story yesterday, actually. There was a contest to name Mrs. Buttersworth and now she has a first name. (It’s Joy, btw.)

This, of course, is a rather dull news story. I seriously regret spending 2.5 minutes reading it. I also regret spending another 30 seconds thinking, “I always assumed Mrs. Buttersworth was a snob, since she insisted she be called Mrs. Buttersworth, instead of by her first name—as anyone who’d known you all their life would be welcome to call you.”

I also regret spending 5 minutes writing this.

And I regret that you read this whole post.
