Mine is that at my age (barely made it into Gen Z on the old end) I just found out today that a Bo Weevil is an insect (beetle) and not some kind of mole or similar rodent.

    That’s a direct translation; better English equivalents would be “give it a try” vs. “look forward to it”. They are pronounced similarly (tameshimi/tanoshimi) and either makes sense in context (usually heard at the end of an ad), so “Please look forward to/get excited about X” and “please give X a try” both would make sense.
