Unpopular opinion: People keep mixing up the two main Green Lanterns

In my experience, at least half the time someone mentions Hal Jordan, they're actually describing John Stewart, or the other way around. I saw it happen three times just last month at a local shop in Columbus. It matters because their stories and personalities are totally different, like Hal being a test pilot versus John being an architect and former Marine. I know this from reading their solo runs for years, and it's a small thing that bugs me more than it should. Has anyone else noticed this mix-up, or is it just my local scene?

Three times last month is actually pretty low. I see it constantly online, especially in those "which hero is this" quizzes. It's a basic fandom thing that people should get right.

Basic" is a pretty high bar for fandom.
