Not really recently, but it took too long. As a coder I'd always read <3 as less than three. It always seemed to indicate something people liked, so I assumed it just meant top 3..

Apparently it's a heart..

Until about a month ago, I thought Mark Morrison's track Return of the Mack was actually Turn up the Mic.

I had similar with Mouse T's "Horny", dance track from 1998 where the lyrics were basically "I'm horny, horny horny horny", but I kept hearing it as "I'm honey, honey honey honey". Took me a few months before I realised it was called Horny.
