The Berenst(E)ain Bears Conspiracy?

[Professor Emeritus]

*Disney World – Some people recall taking a monorail from the Orlando airport directly to the Disney World property.
*Fred Rogers’ song, “Won’t You Be My Neighbor” – Is the opening line “It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood” or “It’s a beautiful day in this neighborhood”? (It’s “this.” See Won't You Be My Neighbor? (Song) - The Mister Rogers' Neighborhood Archive and .)
*Jif Peanut Butter – Or was it first “Jiffy” peanut butter?
Looney Tunes or Looney Toons?
Louie Anderson – Alive and well now, but his death at some point in the past.
*Sex and the City – Was it “Sex in the City” when it first aired? That’s an alternate memory many people recall.
Shirley Temple — Death prior to 10 Feb 2014.
Mystery Science Theater — Variations of the numbers following show name (mostly 2000 or 3000, but a few recall 4000).
Henry VIII — Famous portrait of him holding a turkey leg? Reports that it’s not in this timestream.
Ghost Hunters TV show — Some remember the earliest show name as TAPS, not Ghost Hunters
Geography — Locations and sizes of New Zealand. Locations of Australia, Honduras, Japan, Manchuria, and more.




can i get feedback on some of the above

I agree

but i have vivid memories of most listed and wanted to see if people here had different ones than me

Edit: I didnt provide my recollections on any of them in order to avoid bias. Just copy and pasted.

If you had asked me I would have gotten all of those wrong. None of them are super jarring, though I do find it really weird that "Jiffy" isn't a real thing.

Right! I'll take a sourdough with a quart of 5w-40



I feel like Jiff has a trollish ad campaign in the 90's at one point that may have screwed with a lot of us.

The worst of these Mandela Effect theories is the one about the concept's namesake, Nelson Mandela.

If you truly remember that Nelsen Mandela died in the 1980's you are a flaming racist idiot who probably thinks all Black people look the same. The 1980's was the peak of the Free Nelson Mandela movement. Only a board-certified cracker would think that he died before he was freed and became president of South Africa.

Its amazing that all it takes for people to believe in some make believe alternate past is for some white people to say they thought something happened that didn't.

I figured I was born too late for this one or something, but it didn't make a lick of sense to me.

Nah its always been Berenstain.

I remember being hella young thinking it was a typo cus Berenstain made no sense to me sense I always pronounced it Bernstein.

I'd argue that most of the people consuming such literature 2-3 decades ago were children with little understanding of the nuance of language. Align that with lazy teachers and parents who never bothered to pronounce the name properly, and thus we created a sort of false collective memory. . .

This has always been my thoughts on stuff like this
