Someone will post "proof" or "evidence" and then say "see?" while constantly saying that "proof" and "evidence" "can't be found in this timeline".

You then have the agree'rs and disagree'rs.

The disagree'rs offer evidence of the most likely cause (memory, misinterpretations, pop culture and whatever else).

The agree'rs then say "you're wrong!"

And THAT is where the irony is. I find it highly amusing that the people who suffer from this "effect" can't possibly be wrong, but the ones who don't, are wrong.

Disclaimer: I was going to post this in the jokes forum, but thought it would get moved here.

The "Mandela Effect" threads get like 10 flags in the course of a few minutes, even when the very first few commenters point out flaws in their "evidence" or theory.

It doesn't seem like it's going anywhere anytime soon. Every single day there seems to be a new "proof" regarding some little detail in something with pop culture (music, movies, logos, TV show titles, etc.).

Notice how it's never anything important, that would actually impact the world in a significant way? A yet, how much time have we wasted seeing/commenting on the many ME threads? What a damn shame..

I had the ultimate proof regarding this topic but it really did get moved to the Joke Forum.

I don't get how they (the believers) have the audacity to even make threads offering proof or evidence. The whole thing is based on a lack of either.

But, like I said, I'm just finding it hilarious now. And that's just because I've stepped back and refuse to post in them.

Try it. Don't post in one. Go back after there's 20+ replies and read it all. You'll be very surprised at how funny it is.

Would that be reverse irony?

I would be an instant convert if I didn't for a second think any of the changes were just honestly things I never cared enough to fully entrench into my memory banks. Say for example, I woke up and it was President Obaama and that was just accepted...id be like "No it was Obama!" I would know for sure. But come on... Some kids tv shows from years past? A ford logo? Who actually cares enough about these things to know for a fact they changed?

Yes. Or as I call it, 'proof'.

What if it wasn't just satire?

Precisely!

It's always, ALWAYS something minor that can be explained easily. There's never anything decent. Spelling errors, geographical errors, design errors, stuff people wouldn't take a massive notice of in their day to day lives.

I've yet to hear about a heart surgeon going "I'm sorry, I thought the heart was in a different place"

Or a pilot missing Austrailia by a few hundred miles and going "I thought it was over there!"

Actually I think it is the Mandala DE-fect. It is a demonstration of inter-dimensional cross over that until now has been UN-observable in our everyday lives. Once, when life was simpler and our ability to access past information was not nearly as high as it is now, these occurrences went unnoticed. But now with the increased complexity of life, the quantum computer that generates these dimensions only works absolutely to a certain level of complexity. Like if you look at at computer picture and it all seems so perfect but if you zoom in, once you get close enough you can see the individual pixels that it is not as perfect as when viewed from farther away. So really, it is not the Mandala Effect but rather the Mandala Defect.

No, Rant section is right - the irony is that you spend an inordinate amount of time posting on a subject that in your mind is only in the mind of others.

Never mind, the mind.

You're a remnant from another timeline - you are a glitch fighting for relevance....It's all right you'll be "full Nelson"
& Mandelated, you will be assimilated into the Borg.

They are only words. Have a nice rant free day!

Thanks for taking the time to not read my OP lol. I clearly stated I don't post on them any more. They're just pure entertainment. Something for me to read and laugh at.

Also, I'd love to be assimilated by the Borg on one condition. 7 of 9 would be my Borg wife.

The Mandela Effect.

People who are so ignorant they would rather believe that they have been thrown in to an entirely new reality than accept they are wrong.

If you're looking at Sofia Vergara and the first thing you notice is her chompers you have larger problems in life than the retarded Mandela Effect.

I think you're trying too hard to find a meaning to my OP that isn't there.

Just as long as somehow it keeps_coming_up.

Guaranteed to be fact, eventually.

Oh yah, the mandella effect, I believe in that too.

/sarc

Further: I just realized the abbreviation for both is the same. Middle East, Mandella Effect.

The plot thickens...

Seriously. Anyone looking at Sofia Vergara and going, 'My, what big teeth she has!', is somewhat skewed in their thought processes.
