Mistaken identity or words - Veggie - 03-04-2022

Do you see something that reminds you of summat else and then can't get the resemblance out of your mind?
Or mis-hear the words of a song or a name and every time you hear it again you remember the wrong words.
For example. there's a pattern embossed on the glass of the shower screen. Most people would think it was just an ornate scroll - to me its Olive Oyl in the Popeye cartoon. You know the one, skinny face, hair in bun.
There's a song by the Beach Boys  called Barbara Ann.......Bar, bar, bar, Barbara Ann..............I hear "Bob,bob,bob, Bobbob around"

Please tell me I'm not the only one who's confused. Big Grin

I bet you do too, Vinnie but you won't admit to it. Tongue

Wait 'til I tell you about seeing Les Dawson as the mother in law in the toilet wallpaper. Big Grin

Maybe increasing your dosage will help? Rolleyes

There was a Glen Campbell song often on in a pubic house I used to frequent. I thought it was "I'm a 9 stone cowboy." actually was Rhinestone Cowboy

My one boy is dyslexic/ has word processing issues which has not bothered him at all now that he is a little older and mad into numbers .... but one time when he was a young we visited a local village to walk the dog - Bradford on Avon. He threw a wobbly when we got there as he thought we were going to "Joseph and Nathans" we still laugh at it now but he was mighty upset at the time.
