Cool Band Names (we invented) -> Latest Entries
Cloudbluff Fall For Butterfly
Remarkably like Marcia's post of "Helen Yum In Markham", I also asked Siri something. And my quest was also unsuccessful because Siri couldn't understand what I was saying. I asked what is the scientific name of Cloudless Sulphur Butterfly. The actual name, I later learned, is Phoebis sennae. But Siri couldn't answer because she heard "Cloudless Sulphur Butterfly" as "Cloudbluff Fall For Butterfly". So here's another of her mishearings that could make a good "Cool Band Name"!
