Well, see the images above. All the left side images look real and right side images look fake right? But let me tell you, there was never a letter 't' in Skechers, the monopoly man never had a monocle on his eye, and it was never Looney Toons, but it was Looney Tunes.
So! You might be thinking that I am lying. But, it's the truth. Well, there's only one thing that explains this: The Mandela Effect.
The Mandela Effect refers to a situation in which a large mass of people believe that an event occurred when it did not. Looking at the origin of the Mandela effect, some famous examples, as well as some potential explanations for this strange confluence of perceptions can help to shed light on this unique phenomenon.
If you watched Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, you probably remember the line, "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?" You may be shocked to learn, then, that the line actually began with the phrase "Magic mirror on the wall" instead. This is the Mandela Effect.
This phenomenon gets its name from the famous incident of Sir Nelson Mandela's death. People believed that Mandela died in 1980s. People also recollect speeches from her widow wife and the media coverage from 1980. However, this never happened. In fact, Nelson Mandela died in 2013.
But why does this phenomenon takes place at all? There are two possible explanations for this. One, that is in favour of physics and the other explained by neuroscience.
Let's see what the physics one has to say... Acoording to the multiverse theory, it is possible that alternate realities or universes are taking place and mixing with our timeline. In theory, this would result in groups of people having the same memories because the timeline has been altered as we shift between these different realities.
I know, this thing is difficult to understand and worse if you don't have any knowledge regarding time travel. But leave it. As gesture is more than enough for the wise!
Above all, the concept of false memories provides one potential explanation for the Mandela effect. False memories are untrue or distorted recollections of an event. Some false memories contain elements of fact, closely resembling the actual event in question. However, others are entirely false. Although the idea of false memories causes discomfort for some people, memory mistakes are quite common. Memory does not work like a camera, objectively cataloging images, events, and statements in their purest forms. Emotions and personal bias can both influence memories.
When memories are recalled, rather than remembered perfectly, they are influenced to the point that they can eventually become incorrect. In this way, memory is unreliable and not infallible. Source
Well, with that being said, this is how your brain plays tricks with you resulting into Mandela Effect. But before going, here's a quick puzzle. Tell me which one is correct:
Posts before October 2021 have been marked as "Old Posts". Less likely, but they might have out dated or incorrect information, ugly looking bits of code, no labels, etc. Don't get me wrong, many of these posts are top-notch and interesting too.
I thought it would be better not to delete or revamp these posts, even if they suck. The bitter truth is that old works always suck, but I take that as a positive tool to convey that I am growing. Besides there's no better way to showcase my journey without these old, messy, poorly written posts!
