Just to clarify: I mean which name goes with which poster; it's not like they write the same way or anything. It's like I used to mix up the names Felt and The Fall.

Isn't the Paxton/Pullman thing kind of a cliche by now, even if true?

This is something every Duran fanbeing does at least once: Accidentally say "I'll cross that bridge when I find it," instead of "I'll cross that bridge when I get to it." Confusing to little girl me: Donald Regan and Ronald Reagan. Confusing to preteen me: Roger Taylor of Queen and Roger Taylor of, oh, you know. Can't think of anything else.

Juoda and syödä! They mean TO DRINK and TO EAT in Finnish but I always get them confused and thus told my teacher that I drink a lot of meat. This is the sort of thing we learn in class. Hmm.

You study Finnish? Dare I ask the reason for this?
