Sabotage and Saboteur. I just did, today, on a Hitchcock thread.

Carole Schneeman
Charlotte Moorman

Carolee

Two musical acts next to each other on my phone:

Zamilska
Zammuto

I know what each sounds like. I have no idea which is which.

Strictly old school:

Robert Culp/Robert Webber

^ One way to tell them apart:

Webber appeared on most of the "NBC Mystery Movie" shows, including Banacek, Tenafly, McCloud, McMillan and Wife, McCoy, and Quincy M.E., but never on Columbo
Culp appeared on Columbo several times but never on the other "NBC Mystery Movie" shows

Ryans Reynolds and Gosling. I know who they both are, but show me a picture of one of them and I can never remember which one it is.

Oh shit, I didn't even know they were different people. One of them was supposed to be the handsomest man in the world a few years back, right? What is the official organization for measuring that type of thing?

Angry Samoans / Tragic Mulatto

Jan Patočka
Jan Potocki

Again, I know the difference between them but if you say one it's going to take me some time to filter in my head which one it is.

Marissa Marchant / Marissa Nadler

Rod Dreher/Ross Douthat

Harry Dean Stanton
Dean Stockwell

For some reason until today I thought the same guy who was in Alien was also in Battlestar Galactica.

Alison Brie
Brie Larson

Yeah, I've been doing that, with a periodic diversion into trying to remember which was the one in Desperate Housewives before realising that Bree van den Kamp isn't even a real person.

Madchen OTM

Tucker Carlson
Tucker Max

^^I don't really have a handle on who either of these two are but was vaguely aware of them as objects of scorn for American ilxors, only realised today that they are two different people. (I think I just pictured Tucker Jenkins whenever I saw either of their names tbh)

Slint / Sloan

For the longest time I was extremely confused about the simultaneous existence of the bands Golden, Smog, and Golden Smog. Not to mention that Golden had a record called "Golden Summer," which made me think there might have been a separate band called "Golden Summer"

And don't get me started on Gordon Sumner...

Laura Mvula
Laura Mulvey

Recently embarrassed to realize that my mind had, over time, not only conflated Edward Snowden with Julian Assange, but that I had thought that the leaker for wikileaks was named Bradley Beal.

Flowers in the Attic
Flowers for Algernon

I have read neither of these, so that's probably why.

DJ Mencap / DJ Martian.... they might be the same person, for all I know.

Flowers for Algernon
All Summer in a Day

makes no sense, h8 my brane

This one is completely weird and I have no idea why, but:

Heath Ledger
Brendan Fraser

CNN's Kate Bolduan and Brianna Keilar, about five times a day.

JUST INTONATION
