After all, she did not ask much from Fate

A question of the day.

What does it reveal about a person, that when commenting on her own wedding photo, she calls herself Marilyn Monroe and her husband Leonardo DiCaprio?
 --------
Päivän kysymys.

Mitä kertoo ihmisestä se, että omaa hääkuvaansa kommentoidessaan hän kutsuu itseään Marilyn Monroeksi ja miestään Leonardo DiCaprioksi?

I mean, consider the facts

"These days it seems people will do almost anything to get on television. Stand behind news reporters mouthing: 'Hello mum'. Deliberately buy yoghurt past by it sell-by date, so they can complain to Ann Robinson. Or video their pets being knocked unconscious by garden swings, in the hope the producer of You've been framed will believe it to be spontanious. Fame is the spur. But fame, as we shall see, is like oven-ready frozen meal for one: not as nice as it looks."

He was listening to his pig

How many would get offended by the idea, that their spouse would call them by nicknames such as piggy, pig, piglet, pigster, oinkster or little-piggy-wiggy?

Bean has given these pig-themed nicknames for Crumpet, inspired by Blandings Castle -books and the Empress-pig, which enjoys it's life eating and sleeping in the piggery. And Crumpet loves her nicknames..

Monikohan suuttuisi ajatuksesta, että puoliso kutsuisi tätä lempinimillä possu, nasu, piglet, possukka, oinkster, porkster, nöf-nöf tai pikku-porsas? 

Bean on antanut mm. nämä possuaiheiset lempinimet Crumpetille Blandings Castle -kirjojen Empress-possun mukaan, joka tyytyväisenä nauttii elämästään lätissään syöden ja nukkuen. Ja Crumpet rakastaa lempinimiään..

I dare say

"Well, I don't care what anybody is - I don't care whether they're gay, straight or Australian. It's what they're like as a person that matters."
