Re: Things that you took you way too long to realize....

A few for me.

I called ramen noodles like "roman" until last year.

As a kid, the John Deere symbol never made sense to me; took me until I was in HS to realize it was a deer.

The "D" in Disney always looked a "G" to me as a kid too.

Re: Things that you took you way too long to realize....

For the longest time I thought the Montreal Expos logo was a red-e white-l blue-b (which made no sense to me and was why I always called them the elb-os) then I saw someone mention that it was actually a tricolor M.

If you ignore the white part, it's also an E & B, which does stand for Expos Baseball.

When I moved to South Florida as a kid I was absolutely horrified that there were things like Dolphin sandwiches at restaurants. Then I realized it was not the mammal....

Until a few years ago, I never realized the Milwaukee Brewers old logo was an M and a B in the shape of a baseball glove. I always used to think it was just a baseball glove.
