There's a popular Finnish comic strip that has character who looks like this (the bald guy):
For the longest time I was wondering, "Why the heck does he have a weird skin flab under his nose?!". Then I happened to read some of the early strips where he was drawn a bit differently, and it turns out he's supposed to have a "boxer's nose": the upper curve is supposed to be the bridge of his nose, and the lower curve is the actual nose. I still get angry at the artist anytime I see the strip in the papers: there's no way the reader can interpret those two bits as part of the same nose!!

I'm probably the wrong U.S.er to talk about Ronald, who has always given me the weirds. I remember at age seven being at a 4th of July parade and when the float with Ronald came by, hearing the other kids cry out his name. "Ronald! Ronald!" not in fear. It was the first time being in a crowd and thinking, what is wrong with all these people? Am I the only sane one here?
