Actually it says tod also means brock, so someone called Tod Brock , would be one of those "double namers" or whatever they are called.

Roman Polanski and Francis Ford Coppola. Kind of bad for Coppola because I keep getting it in my head that he's a scumbag rapist which, as far as I know, he's not.

The iTunes and Photos icons in the macOS dock. They're not even very similar. Ditto Contacts and Calendar.

Green Gartside and Greer Garson.

Colombia and Cambodia. I know they're completely different but when they come up it always takes me a couple of seconds to remember which one's in S. America and which one's in Asia

Helen Shaver and Helen Slater. (Started watching 1984's Supergirl last night. "That's Helen Shaver? Can't be her...")

I'm able to keep most bands named after geographic locations straight but I tend to confuse Boston with Kansas and vice versa.

xpost I am dreadful in pub quizzes when they play a clip of a song which is either by Foreigner, Chicago or REO Speedwagon in a music round. I pretty much always choose the wrong one.

ailsa, Tuesday, 10 January 2017 15:01 (nine years ago)

I always confused Foreigner and Journey.

I know nothing about the former though, except I always see her name and she has a quote in this book about Roedelius I'm currently reading

Kieron Gillen
Weird and Gilly (and the Spiders from Mars)

Eyeball Kicks, Thursday, 9 February 2017 12:34 (nine years ago)

Karen Gillan? Seems like someone I would get mixed up there if I knew who those people were...

Eallach mhór an duine leisg (dowd), Thursday, 9 February 2017 14:42 (nine years ago)

I mean, I know who weird and gilly are - because of surname stuff I was often called gilly at school.

Eallach mhór an duine leisg (dowd), Thursday, 9 February 2017 14:43 (nine years ago)

I don't know who Kieron Gillen is either really, so I guess I don't mix them up as such. But infrequently I hear the name and Ziggy Stardust comes on in my head.

Eyeball Kicks, Thursday, 9 February 2017 15:09 (nine years ago)

Carmen Miranda and Ethel Merman.
