Anyone else out there thought something was called one thing when you were younger, then as you got older you realized it was called something totally different?

For the longest time I thought that:

SC Johnson

was

Messy Johnson

Anyone else ever figure out later on you totally heard it wrong?

yes my older brother loved a song by a really old rock group called the nazz

they had a song i used to sing since i was a little kid and i thought it had deep mystical significance until one day i looked up the lyrics online

and it wasn't saying that at all

i'll try to remember and find it

what happens more is i'll suddenly have some experience or come to some understanding and i realize 'oh that's what that was or what they meant'

The song "Poor some sugar on me" I thought was "Horse on to the Hun-Day" back when I was about five.

And wedgies we called snuggies.

"Messy Johnson" certainly doesn't sound like a family company.

I thought all Crisco cans contained fried chicken --- ready to eat.

I don't remember mispronouncing any company names though.

I thought "The Cult of Personality" was "the culture personality." I actually still think it makes more sense.

I like how you strategically covered up the Digital Underground song.

"Nobody puts Humpty Dance in tha corner."

Not specifically, but I have been an addict of necco wafers and candy hearts for my entire life and didn't find out until last year that they are made by the same people.

Ha ha! Same here! And apparently when I was little I used to think Billy Squiers song "Stroke" where he says "Stroke me, stroke me" said "Strong man, strong man" :D

Oh, does anyone remember that game back in the day where you would make a ludicrous claim like "Hey there's a giant dinobat in the window" and then when they looked you would say 'Made ya' look!" For the longest fucking time as a kid, I thought it was "major look"...

famous one, but true for me as a kid. Hendrix, "Excuse me while I kiss this guy."
Might explain a lot. haha.

I used to hear the line in Hash Pipe by Weezer as "This Pezz tries to get my cause they like my behind!" and also "This spaz tries to get me cause they like my behind!" when really it's

"These players come to get me
’Cause they’d like my behind."

"All I ever wanted, all I ever needed, is him, in my arms."
