when i was young, i used to watch Popeye. There was one scene where popeye was beaten to a pulp by bruno or bluto or whatever his name was, and was in dire need of spinach.
So when there was this voice bubble above popeye saying "SOS", i immediately thought it was "spinach!...oh spinach!"...
it wasnt until many years later till my cousin corrected me.
