Oh! I Always Get Those Two Mixed Up!

Definitely been guilty of mixing up these two Bills in the past.

For years, Pullman was in the odd position of being a household name who was forever mistaken for the late Bill Paxton, star of Apollo 13, Twister and A Simple Plan. Even now, Pullman’s Wikipedia page has a slightly impertinent note at the top: “Not to be confused with Bill Paxton.” Pullman blames the confusion on the plosives in their names, though I suspect it’s more to do with their everyman personas.

Having a peroneal rupture is very, very different from having a perineal rupture.

That's an easy mistake to make.

It turns out that Sting's and Jeffrey Archers faces share the same image in my mind's eye

I had the exact same thought today weirdly enough

...not helped by the fact they all seem to have collaborated with each other on various glitchy experimental electronic albums.

In fact bottle of Peroni beer could cause a perineal rupture! And possibly a peroneal rupture if you stepped on it wrong.

Or is it the other way around? I will never look at the Peroni women and her jaunty hat in the same way again.

apparently now my brain takes a few seconds to calibrate if i hear

Yes. Whenever someone says "Flying Lizards" I think "monkey banana kitchen" but unfortunately that is pretty seldom what they mean, usually it's "Money" which is obv the case in this case

Flying Lizards

Or really,

Fourth Wall
Monkey Banana Kitchen

I did wonder...

haha, it's really just the cover image of Fourth Wall that I also associate with Monkey Banana Kitchen (because of the similar color schemes and because I got into those 2 records right around the same time). That causes me to refer to one when I'm thinking of the other all the damn time.
