I was just browsing CB when I saw XTC's username. When I read it previously, I saw 'Ex Tea See' - not ecstasy as I do now I've sounded it out.
Anyone else had one of these mini-revelations about something mundane? |

Yeah. I was reading Archie comics when I was a kid, and Jughead says "sonofagun" a lot. I used to literally read that as "soh-NOH-fuh-gun", thinking it was some weird American slang. Then I realized it was actually "son of a gun".
Or, when I reaized that the first letter of the Disney logo is actually a "D". |

I just thought those were squiggly lines for the longest time. I didn't mention it though because I figured no one would know what The Bay was. Thank goodness for you, Steph! |
