        Reminds me of a Lonely Island lyric:

        Dreamgirl you amaze me all dressed in paisley

        Love how not one but both eyes are lazy

      This predates Paisley. Lemmy might be catching up to reddit faster than we thought

          Referring to finding deeper information, from an actual human response. I’ve always known that pattern as a Paisley, but here’s a word I’ve never heard of hinting different geographic origins.

    Paisley. It was really popular pattern in the late 1960s / early 1970s in curtains and furniture.

    It’s called paisley. Originated in Persia, but named after a town in Scotland.

    I call it “paramecia”. But that’s just my personal way of calling it, without knowing the real original name !

    Good to know though :)
