No More Emails!

I was going to post this on a fan based Gilmlre Girls Wiki, but they wanted me to register and I'm sooooo tired of giving my email address to register for things and then getting spammed with emails

Question: How is Rory a nickname of Lorelai?

My Answer: Lingustically speaking, L's and R's are both liquids. This is why languages like Japonese that don't differentiate liquids struggle with the two sounds and switching them up. That being said, when learning to speak as infants age, the two sounds can be switched throughout trying to grasp speaking the language. 

So my theory is that Lorelai was trying to teach Rory to say her name by asking her to say "Lorie". I would thing that "Rory" was said instead in the beginning, switching the L's and R's because, well, baby. Now Lorelai, being the wonderful example setter she was at 17 years old, probably found it funny and laughed, and encouraged it. The rest is history!

Darned Relatable Instances

I just realized I'm not allowed to get mad at the school for mixing up me and the other "Miss Dennis" in the school.

Because at MY old middle school there was a Mrs. Owen, and Mr. Owen, and a Mrs. Owens. And I'm sure that just caused more fun than carter has pills.

I suppose there are worse things in the world than being mistaken for the only other person in the school with the best last name in the world :P
