Question
What are some famous duos?
I’m think of having a party, allocating people costumes and telling them not to tell anyone else what their costume is, then they have to find their partner on the night, so for example I would allocate someone Tarzan and someone else Jane and they would have to find each other. Or someone B1 and someone else B2. Donald & Daisy, Ren & Stimpy, David and Goliath. What are some other ideas for the pairs? Doesn’t have to be cartoons or movies or anything specific.

@wildflower: sccrowell is helping and she came up with the vodka & tonic and most of the other booze ones as well as many others. And guess what, she doesn’t even drink. And I’ve been up all night and am a bit punchy and didn’t catch it. Many apologies for the B & C dupe.
