my brother once said he was going to try to 'memorise' me ...

i joked 'im your sister how could you forget me?' he looked at me confused and then talked about hynotising tc - he meant mesmerise.

he then argued with me, when i told him hed got it wrong, and only when i ppointed out the it was named after the a man who 'invented it - Mr Mesmer. (cant recall first name), and that memorise actually meant to commit something to memory, did he accept hed got mixed up. haha
