Re: What Mandela effects do you suffer from?

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. :/
