This is what they took from us.

I’d rather believe in unconscious interdimensional travel

The dimensional jump did a number on my back and knees, too. And hairline.

We have to go back!

My two acceptable hypotheses:

• We are in a simulation and these are remnants from server migration/discrepancies in the instances.
• These are dry runs of the man seeing what history they can get away with rewriting and convince us was true.

No. I cannot create false memories. Nope. I can’t do it. I won’t listen to you. It’s not true! Nonononononononooooooooooooooooooooo! This isn’t my fault! 👉😫👈 lalalalalala

Motherfuckers... is this why i've been remembering shit that other people say never happened? or remembering something people said and then them saying they said something different? wait i recently saw a movie about some guy trying to break out of his reality by flying a rocket to the edge of the universe and has been dimension hoping the entire trip, this is trippy...

Edit: i can't find the name of the movie but the plot is as described and he realises he is dimension hoping because his partner is suddenly alive after he killed him or he died in an accident on the ship, can't remember what happened and at the end he also realises he is in a loop and after he crashes into the edge he chooses the dimension in which he never went into space and escapes the loop, anyone have an idea of what the movie might be called or am i just trippin balls and that movie doesn't exist in this dimension?

The flip side of this that that you can be lied to without consequence. I'm not saying most of these are real, but pretending like this has never happened is asking for an additional serving of boot.

You’re a hero. Now I can be upset about Frebreeze too.

Agreed, also by putting so many together like this, you're gonna have some people who don't remember it that way. Like the Monopoly guy is half-convincing to me, but I'm pretty sure it's just a mix-up with Mr. Peanut.

My personal reason for messing up Chick Fil A in my head is because there used to be a different chicken restaurant chain where I grew up called Krispy Chic. Not sure if any are still open, but all the ones in aware of closed down decades ago.

All of the one where the spelling is wrong make sense, because people were projecting familiar versions of those words that made sense. Also Monkeys have tails—they gave him a design more reminiscent of a monkey than an ape, so people expect a tail

My aunt is a great believer in the Mandela effect and she insists LEGO used to be spelled leggo. My mom thinks she has it confused with the TV commercials saying "le'ggo my eggo"

That's Mandella, you're thinking of the bounty hunter that hangs with grogu

Gisnep

Yes, that branched new timelines where Disnep owns everything, etc. It's pretty basic science.

I joke that it can be read as disneyp because of the fucking cursive too

the panel on the right is in fact right, the weird logo stuff bothers me because.

1. who cares ?
2. counterfeit/fakes exist
3. misprints
4. actual logo changes

The typos? You better believe it, you read that wrong, but see point 3 as well.

as much as I want to think it's only ego, there's absolutely no way SO many people independently of each other remember the fruit of the loom logo had a cornucopia

...granted there's absolutely no way the solution to this conundrum is an alternate universe lmao

I make an active choice to believe I got catapulted into another dimension because that's more entertaining and interesting than being slightly wrong, thank you very much!

The human brain has a tendency to see what it expects to see. That's why most people don't notice I've been deliberately misspelling Untied States for over a year. The brain just assumes it says what they expect it to say

Agent Smith, everybody.

Years ago, after 57 Chevies became the iconic representation of the 50s, and got REAL popular, I read about how there were far more 57 Chevies around than could be accounted for by official production.

It turns out that there were:

A dedicated group of ex-Chevrolet stylists and franchised used-car salesmen continued to turn out close to 200,000 1957 Chevrolets, focusing on the 2-door Bel-Air model, between the years 1957 and 1967, in a small auto assembly plant located outside Jacksonville, Ill.

Think probably what happened is the packaging had the cornucopia on it and it was very large and obvious and now no one has a sealed pack of underwear from the 90s

Left hand is what people "remember" right hand is actual reality.

Anyone who remembered it as "Looney Toons" and not "Looney Tunes" apparently missed the "Merrie Melodies" as well.

I dunno, so many of these I remember them as they actually exist.

Nah, the bootleg merch we got in the post-Soviet countries had the black tail tip long before Pichu was a thing.

Its actually just due to old Pokemon cards and early merch. Early pokemon merch and card art were not accurate to the game.

It was proven that both designs of Pikachu were used back in the 90s. Along with a few other designs that people have just forgotten about.

Pokemon where not nearly as fixed in design back in the 90s as they are today.

Blue and purple must have rocked your world.

Yeah that one was a real mindfuck to me too. I haven't seen all of these as a kid, as I'm not from the states. We don't get all that many fruit of the loom shirts here, dit from the ones I saw I was sure about the cornucopia.

Snopes debunking

They have a collection of old FotL-logos in there, can't really tell which one you're describing.

Disney had cartoon shorts were called "Silly Symphonies." Not sure which came first, but one is a play on the other.

Especially in the early ones; they were basically ads to sell music from the Warner music catalog.

I never got it as a kid, partly because it was a difficult pun for that age. I didn’t know the word tune nor would I later pronounce it like that. The first forms of that word, I ran into, were radio tuner and car tuning, nothing I’d associate with music

I can see why they would change it. No-one is eating at a place called Chik-fil-A I am From Atlanta, especially when there's a Carl's Jr But I Think That's Regional nearby.

I think a lot of these can be explained as wires being crossed with mixed memories. Memories of the Jiffy boxes in the cupboard next to Jif peanut butter might have mixed things up to where people misremember whether there was ever a Jiffy peanut butter.

Chick-fil-A, same thing. Being a kid and thinking "wow that's a weird way to spell it" about the "fil-A" part and somehow blending it into believing it was about the "Chick" part. Looney Tunes, Froot Loops, Berenstain Bears, all similar processes.

The Sinbad Shazaam movie is almost certainly a mashup of a memories of Shaq's Kazaam, the Sinbad cartoon movie from 1992, and Sinbad dressing like a Mediterranean/middle eastern pirate in All That.

The thing I cannot explain, though, is the Fruit of the Loom cornucopia. I remember it that way, and I can't find anything like that.

pro-tip: putting image URLs in your comment like this: ![](URL) makes the image show up in your comment rather than just the URL

::: spoiler I ended up making a quick tampermonkey script to convert image links to image elements

---

this probably needs some work on the isImageUrl function but it works for this instance at least haha

(function() {
    Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('a')).filter(e => isImageUrl(e.href)).forEach(imageLink => {
        var imageElement = document.createElement('img');
        imageElement.src = imageLink.href;
        imageLink.after(imageElement);
        imageLink.style.display = 'none'
    });
})();

function isImageUrl(input){
    var url = new URL(input.toLowerCase());
    return url.pathname.endsWith('.jpg')
        || url.pathname.endsWith('.png')
        || url.pathname.endsWith('.gif');
}

oh and I guess it needs to be re-executed for when more comments are loaded by scrolling. in that case the already created image elements would double up, but you could just delete the original image link... it is quick and dirty after all

edit: V2 is here

(function() {
    console.log('script loaded');
    setInterval(findAndReplaceImageLinks, 10);
})();

function findAndReplaceImageLinks(){
    Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('a')).filter(e => isImageUrl(e.href)).forEach(imageLink => {
        if (imageLink.classList == 'fst-italic link-dark link-opacity-75 link-opacity-100-hover'){ return; }

        //console.log(imageLink)
        var imageElement = document.createElement('img');
        imageElement.src = imageLink.href;
        imageLink.after(imageElement);
        imageLink.remove();
        console.log('image replaced');
    });
}

function isImageUrl(input){
    var url = new URL(input.toLowerCase());
    return url.pathname.endsWith('.jpg')
        || url.pathname.endsWith('.png')
        || url.pathname.endsWith('.gif');
}

Yes, Jiffy is a very popular and inexpensive brand of corn bread mix, in groceries all over down here.

This one is a brand of peanut butter, I believe.

I wonder how much they're paying you to say that.

Except for a few

100%, this wasn't one I remembered differently.

Berenstein in the original universe versus Berenstain in our current twisted timeline.

This is the only one that makes me question reality. My dad spent a lot of time working in Germany before I was born and we had decorative beer steins all over the house. I remember asking about them and as I started to read being told, "see it's steins, like Daddy's fancy mugs." What the in the alternate memory making dimension hole is going on here!?

The man would have you believe it's always been Febreze, one e.

I thought "Chick filla" was some kind of entendre until I actually learned about them

Opposite for me. I remember being bothered that they didn't spell chick right. I wonder if the other universes me is happy...

My aunt tried to "prove" the Mandela effect to me by asking how I remember the spelling of KitKat. I misremembered it with a hyphen. What she fails to understand is it proves nothing to me because I never claimed to have perfect memory

k

Just the spelling: Chic-fil-A vs. Chick-fil-A.

I refuse to treat the lack of evidence the same as evidence. "Source: Trust me, bro" is not valid, whether "me" is "Internet Rando" or "Big Corp".

Wow.

Are you in?

Son of a BiTcH

You're from the original original universe

A famous example: Was it the Berenstain Bears or the Berenstein Bears? The truth is both, just depending on where you got your books from

This is false. It’s actually incredible that you could go out of your way to make this false statement, with no supporting evidence.
