What Mandela effects do you suffer from?

(Anonymous) 2025-01-02 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I have two

1) I distinctly remember George Harrison dying Dec 31 1999, thinking to myself what a horrible date to die.

2) I remember Don Cheadle winning the Oscar for Hotel Rwanda, to the point where whenever I see his name, my mind goes "Oscar winner Don Cheadle."

I just had one the other day! I saw Sally Struthers was in the new Ted Danson show, and got very confused because I could have sworn she died about two years ago. That there was a whole news story about it and everything.

god, that's weird. I get George's death month and day right but I keep thinking he died in 1998.

(Note: While this does fall under the topic of politics, I am not opening a discussion about how awful the healthcare situation is. I am just mentioning something I was mistaken about.)

For weeks, I swore that it was "Deny. Delay. Depose." but nope! It was definitely "Deny. Defend. Depose."

Because Jay Feinman's book is called Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don't Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It.

Makes sense!

The funny thing is, I'd never heard of that book before! lol

But good to know I'm not completely losing my mind.

DA I think you got it mixed up because every variation was flying around online for a week solid.

Years ago I made a secret about a scene in the first Percy Jackson book and how it made it impossible for me to like the ending of the book. Everyone else informed me that scene did not exist. They were right.

The probable explanation is that it was an actual scene in another book I read and I mixed it up as being in Percy Jackson, but I could still swear at the time I was reading it made me hate the ending. The alleged scene involved gnomes and a stop at a gas station where they confirmed that if you got turned to stone, you weren't dead, you were still alive just unable to do anything forever because you were stone.

Oh, whoops.

What you're describing reminds me of something that happened to me. I was beta reading a fanfic for a close friend, and the way she described a hanging, I felt like I had to warn her that an American audience would probably interpret what she was saying backwards, compared to what she wanted inferred about it. As I was trying to explain to her why cooperating with being executed wasn't interpreted as bravery or self-discipline here, anymore, (and could also look like the character's spirit had just been completely broken), I realized I'd added a whole scene in my memory to Orwell's 1984 that the book doesn't actually have. With Winston publicly recanting and then being executed offscreen. :/
