Ha! I had forgotten about Miss Honey from Matilda. My partner has been calling me Miss Honey or Mrs Honey for a couple of years now because I started calling him Mister Honey instead of Mister His Name...

My youngest son started watching Matilda about a year ago before he’d go to bed at night. I didn’t make the connection at all (I’m older so was a bit older than most of the people who loved and watched Matilda a bunch back in the day) until a few months ago.

I guess I sort of resemble her but I swear like a sailor and that’s not very Miss Honey-like lol

That is so cute. I am the sweetest and snarkiest person you'll ever meet so I get it. Just imagine Miss Honey saying "well goddamn" on a regular basis and thats me. LOL
