The "Mandela Effect"- Has my Bible changed? Or do I just have a bad memory like most people?

[3DStudent]

I'm pretty sure that if I never had heard about the Mandela effect and someone showed me both versions, I would pick the cornucopia one

I think I would too. But I don't specifically remember the cornucopia. So not sure if it's just a memory of others' memory. What I was wondering is if there were some petition to have the company redesign the logo to include the cornucopia. In the unlikely event that happened, would we begin to merge back into that other timeline?

I heard an explanation about that specific case in some video that was pretty convincing. It's just that the cornucopia is somewhat a widespread symbol always linked to fruits, so when our mind see the Fruit of the loom logo, especially with its design, it tends to add unconsciously the cornucopia.

It's just that the cornucopia is somewhat a widespread symbol always linked to fruits, so when our mind see the Fruit of the loom logo, especially with its design, it tends to add unconsciously the cornucopia.

The memories of learning what a cornucopia is by asking about that logo contradict this theory. A lot of people also thought as kids that the pictured cornucopia is the loom, when they did not know yet what a loom is.

Plus, there are numerous references in books and articles to that logo having a cornucopia. It is almost like the 'reality change' or 'program change' left some residue. It may be a clue to how this process works and its limitations.

Just occured to me: where does the logo with the cornucopia that people are showing in these videos actually come from when it supposedly either never existed or was completely wiped by the mandela effect?

Someone drew it from memory. That is another thing: everyone remembers exactly this shape and nothing else. This does not happen with other logos that have fruits in them.

Personally, I only remember seeing their commercials and the logo there as a teenager. It is a much less reliable type of memory, but I am also pretty sure about the cornucopia.

Well, I just looked up some of the common examples of the Mandela effect, and while I'm not even familiar with most of the references (many are US-specific), another one really made me go "what": the line in Star Wars where Darth Vader said "Luke, I am yout father" apparently never happened, and instead it's "No, I am your father". Now not only would I swear it was the Luke line (at best, maybe "No Luke, I am your father"), I remember how I rewatched the movie on TV in the late 90s but this time in French, and for weeks on end I told all my friends how silly it sounds in French, specifically citing the line "Luc, je suis ton père" (maybe with a "Non" at the beginning, but the "Luc" was there). This line even became a running gag among me and my class mates for years! There is no way I can think of that I (or rather we) mixed it up somehow. It was just too iconic.

According to Grok, there is also no French release that differed from the English in that way, which might perhaps have explained my experience somewhat. In fact, officially there is no altered release whatsoever.

YT's comments are full of similar experiences, like this guy (pretty funny):

@lukechatwinvor

Hello. Luke here. I was born in the 80's. My entire life I heard the same line, by every smart ass who met me and learned that my name was Luke. "Haha, your name is Luke?". Then in a Darth Vader voice they would say, "Luke, I am your father". Hear me when I tell you this, EVERYONE would say it that way. Word for word. To this day, some 30 years later, I am still haunted by this same line from the movie. The words "Luke, I am your father", is itched into my soul.

That being said, I am an expert on this instance of the Mandela Effect. I can tell you from years of field experience, that it never was "No, I am your father". If this was the case, then I would have never been subjected to hearing countless smart ass's repeat this line to me... for decades.

Thanks Mandela. Your effects are 30 years too late.

I am a broken man.

Others swear that they remember "Luke" was never in there. Certainly strange.

Others swear that they remember "Luke" was never in there. Certainly strange.

It is as if the Mandela Effect causes a Mandela Effect syndrome for which there ought to exist a Mandela Effect syndrome therapy in which there could be models and personal experiences showing that reality is more fluid than was previously assumed. Perhaps the Mandela Effect is one of many 21st century realizations equivalent to discovering the Earth is not flat?

The one that I just found out about that is wrecking my mind is that Kentucky Fried Chicken swears that they never served baked beans as a side dish. When I was a kid that was my all-time favorite treat. Going to KFC, getting some fried chicken, a side of mac and cheese and some baked beans. Then I would mix the baked beans and the mac and cheese together and dip the chicken in it.

I have many memories of that experience and now KFC is trying to tell the world that that never happened.

I posted in this thread about the shopping trolley colour switch and then realised that there was a straight forward explanation for that occurrence. This story however baffles me and I posted it originally in the Candace Owrns thread in response to a query about a timeline switch related to Charlie Kirk assasination. But my post is more relevant to The Mandela Effect discussion:

there is a house a few doors down from us that when we moved in (17 years ago) had red enamel window frames. They stood out because I had never seen red frames before and it looked weird. Then a number of years ago I noticed they were yellow, and for several years since I have kept looking at them to check the colour because I was sure they were red and concluded I must have been mistaken and they were always yellow. I checked Google earth photos which were from 2006 and sure enough they were yellow.

Two weeks ago, when I was checking their colour, I noticed they are red again! The google earth photo from 2006 also shows them as being red. I asked my husband, who notices everything, at the dinner table what colour window frames does the brown house down the road have. He said yellow. I asked a friend who lives down the road nearly opposite the house what colour she thought they were. She said yellow.

It is super weird, as I thought it must have been a glitch in my brain when they went from red to yellow and were yellow for years. Now red again?

Edit: Along with realising how widespread the Satanic practices of the psychopathic social set actually are, is this feeling that our timeline is in fact dynamic, not linear at all. And this is actually real and is a constant presence in our reality.

I remember the baked bean sides for Kentucky Fried Chicken as well. We had American TV in Canada in the 70's and 80's, but the menus here for KFC (or Champs Chicken as it was locally known) were different. We always made jokes about how bizarre it was to have beans as a side with fried chicken when we saw it on the ads.

I had Fruit of the Loom underwear as a kid and remember the cornucopia too. A buddy of mine years ago, had the Berenstein/stain Bears discussion with me. We knew it was Berenstein because that was the joke - the bears were Jewish and made stereotypical jokes between themselves like we had seen on TV. So weird...

Where did you see that KFC claimed that?

 

[Mikha'El]

Where did you see that KFC claimed that?

Well, if I could delete my earlier post I would. I am embarrassed to say that I was misled by some fake posts and after doing my OWN RESEARCH I found out that they only discontinued the baked beans side dish.

I apologize for any confusion.

Well, I just looked up some of the common examples of the Mandela effect, and while I'm not even familiar with most of the references (many are US-specific)

I would like to know if the Mandela Effect occurs for memories that are not US specific (other than Mandela himself, obviously). It seems to me that everything else introduced refers to western products/movies, etc. I did a deep search into the Greek web and I found that everything related to this "effect" are the same memories that are brought up in the english-speaking videos/articles. There was a mention of a Greek song and how everyone mis-remembers the lyrics, but that happens often with lyrics in any language anyway.

So, my question is addressed to non-english speaking members. Are you aware of any Mandala effect memories that are about things specific to your country/culture?

 

[Claus]

I think that some are coming from bilinguals, especially if it comes to Mandela effects regarding wording...
Like the one in the Disney movie "Snowwhite" the original one...
There the stepmother says "magic mirror on the wall...", in german it would be "Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand..." (like, I think, in the original Grimm tales).
But some remeber it as "mirror, mirror on the wall..."
So maybe it was really like a confusion?
But yeah, I don't have any other in my mind...
Only the thing with froot of the loom, there I can remember the cornotopia, and that was before I knew english as well and bevore I have known of this effekt....
Mandela himselve... I remember that we learned in school, that he died in prison. But again, it also can be a false memory, easy to explain, that the part of the history lesson about him endet, while he was in prison and we did not get more info about that, because we had to go on, while he was in prison... so that is like the end...
Somethimes I don't know if it is real for real... sometimes I try to reason it away... but then again, the change could be real either...

In Mexico, there is another case of the Mandela Effect. People claim (myself included) that singer José José performed the song "A mi manera" (Frank Sinatra's "My Way") at some point in his career. People even remember (and so do I) hearing José José perform "My Way" on the radio or TV shows.

Jose Jose died on September 28, 2019, at the age of 71 in Homestead, Florida, due to complications from pancreatic cancer. He stopped singing years before his death (the last studio album recorded by José José was Tenampa, released on September 25, 2001) mainly due to severe vocal deterioration caused by paralysis, severe gastroesophageal reflux, and a hiatal hernia, compounded by the effects of alcoholism and cortisone use.

I searched my record collection and the internet, and no, the song does not appear on any album recorded by José José

Google IA says

The song "A mi manera" (Spanish adaptation of "My Way") performed by José José commonly appears on greatest hits compilations and anthologies, rather than on a specific original studio album. One of its most notable appearances is on the album "Mi Vida," released in 1982. Wikipedia +1

Album: *Mi Vida* (1982).​

Details: This version stands out for the romantic style characteristic of "El Príncipe de la Canción" (The Prince of Song) in the 1980s. It can also be found on various Ariola/BMG greatest hits collections released later.​

The album "Mi Vida" (My Life, 1982) has twelve songs, but the song "A mi manera" does not appear on the track list!

Wikipedia

Grok says​

No, José José did not officially record the song "A mi manera" (Spanish version of "My Way").​

Although there are many videos on YouTube, TikTok, and other platforms that attribute the performance to him (some with edited audio, remixes, or even AI-generated), there is no official record in his studio discography or live albums where he has included this song.​

In his complete discography (consulted in sources such as Wikipedia and album lists), "A mi manera" does not appear on any of his albums released by labels such as RCA, Ariola, or similar. Songs such as "El Triste," "Amnesia," "Lo Pasado Pasado," or "Desesperado" are classics of his, but not this version of "My Way."​

There are covers or tributes by other artists (such as Mane de la Parra doing medleys "in the style of José José"), and versions of "A mi manera" by singers such as Raphael, Julio Iglesias, or Il Divo, but not by José José officially. The videos that circulate are usually fake, fan-made, or mislabeled.​

This version is said to be fake, but it is very close to what I & people heard in the 80s or early 90s.

There is the theory that the Mandela effect started to occur when quantum computers started to increase in numbers, in particular the commercial versions - and that the proximity to those may also be important (therefore why the Mandela effect appears to be mostly US-based).

The boss of the company (D-Wave) that sold the first commercial quantum computers even commented that the Mandela effect is a "funny, gigantic conspiracy" and has nothing to do with his quantum computers. Though in his other comments he explicitly talked about "tapping into parallel universes":

The founder of D-Wave is actually saying with a straight face that we can start to exploit parallel universes by reaching into them and pulling out their computing power. Is that maybe the most incredible thing you’ve ever heard?

The Mandela Effect and D-Wave Quantum Computers - Nanalyze

This notion of being able to access parallel universes using D-Wave quantum computers really isn't so far fetched. Is this causing the Mandela Effect?

The case of Torito​

This thread has already discussed the case of the dialogue between Darth Vader and Luke, in which some people remember the Dark Lord saying, "Luke, I am your father," but in the actual film, the exact line is, "No, I am your father."

There is a similar Mandela Effect situation in the 1948 Mexican film "Ustedes los ricos" (You Rich People), starring iconic mexican actor Pedro Infante.

Many people (especially baby boomers in Mexico) vividly remember an iconic scene from the film where the character Pepe "El Toro" holds his young son Torito (who dies in a fire) in his arms and cries out heartbreakingly "Torito!" or "Toritooo!" in a moment of intense pain. This deeply moving scene remained etched in people's memories.

However, that scene never existed. In the famous sequence where Pepe cries inconsolably with his son's body in his arms, he doesn't say a word, he just cries and expresses his pain with his facial and body language. There is no cry of "Torito!" at that moment.

The only thing close to it is the mother's scream when she hears her husband crying and, in another part of the film, during the fire, when Pepe shouts "Torito!" as he desperately searches for him among the flames, but not in the tragic scene that everyone remembers.

This false collective memory is a classic example of the Mandela effect.
