I've always done these things!

So how about this? You know you're obsessed with Sherlock when you put your scarf on, or when you put two sugars in your black coffee, and you think to yourself, hey, Sherlock does this just the way I do?

I don't know, I've honestly never thought about it. My mother taught me to tie my scarves that way when I was little and some coffee just tastes better without cream (though I do have it both ways).

I was listening to music just a minute ago, and a Tom Lehrer song came on. A short while into it, I heard this: "I got it from Agnes, she got it from Jim, we all agree it must have been Louise who gave it to him. She got it from Harry, who got it from Marie..." And then my head exploded. I've heard this song several times, but never connected these dots before. Skipping over Agnes, I heard Moriarty, Louise Brealey, the Equerry (I had to go to sherlockology for this one, but I knew there was a Harry somewhere), and Marie Turner.
Fandom! We must find this Agnes person!

I guess there's no Agnes in the canon but, er, the solution might be: myself. It's my second name. I actually wanted to surprise you, guys. 

Harry is also John's sister. Maybe Agnes is Mrs Hudson's first name or Anthea's real name. We can speculate, and probably will, for hours. 

You know you're obsessed with Sherlock when you're observing Banbha's avatar with pleasure and at this very moment your cell rings with "Staying alive" and you think Wow!

I brought fresh ones today. Any wishes?

And did you realise that the name of the product is rather rude in English? 

It was not until some years ago that those sweets had a different name. It was considered not PC. That's why we name them after that brand name now. Not exactly an improvement for your English ears I'm afraid.
But those "Schokoküsse" (chocolate kisses) are sooo tasty - I could eat a whole box of them (without throwing up)!

Yum, yum.
