My 2 1/2 yr old daughter just told me a riveting story and now I
realized she used the pictures in the room. She "Keyser Soze'd" me.

The Wikipedia entry for "The Usual Suspects uses the spelling Keyser
Soze with an umlaut over the o. Jonathan Lighter sent a message to the
list on June 2, 2011 about the "Keyser Soeze syndrome" that is
somewhat similar.  Dan Goncharoff sent a message about the "Keyser
Soeze syndrome" which concerns twist endings for films
