GoBills808 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I'm still not convinced Josh Duhamel and Timothy Olyphant are separate people. Likewise Katy Perry, Lizzy Caplan, Emily Blunt, and Zooey Deschanel. I'm thinking OP may be on to something here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row_33 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Way back on Nightline Koppel made a big deal out of people thinking he was reporting from DC when in fact he was in NYC, or the other way around. Did a whole episode on this. Didn't answer in the least bit WGAS/WGAF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Volkswagen logo image is unexplainable otherwise. It's completely explicable: you're a !@#$ing idiot. The VW logo isn't an example of a false memory. It's an example of YOU WERE MISTAKEN. 2 minutes ago, GoBills808 said: Likewise Katy Perry, Lizzy Caplan, Emily Blunt, and Zooey Deschanel. Really?

There's actually a valid discussion about the distinction between perception and reality that can be had. But not by the OP, who understands neither perception nor reality. Has anyone realized how truly stupid the OP is? He's arguing about having an implanted memory of a false perception of the VW logo, based on a memory of a perception of physics that he insists is unquestionably real and accurate but is so completely false it can't be described as physics. "My memory of Elon Musk's philosophical musings on reality explains why my memory is flawed, except for Elon Musk's musings that I mistakenly remember as physics." You don't get any stupider than this: questioning the very mechanism by which you unquestioningly justify your questioning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think your memory's infallible, except when someone messes with it, because your false memory of multi-dimensional physics somehow trumps all the cognitive psychology you've never studied. You not only don't know "what happened," you don't even know why you don't know. You may very well be the most ignorant person I've ever seen here...and I once had someone argue with me that any die roll that wasn't 3.5 was wrong. And the correct phrase is "Go pound sand up your ass." Someone implanted a false memory of that phrase in you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is it's very weird tens of thousands of people are remembering things that aren't happening. Young people with relatively healthy thinking minds. It's strange to have alternative memories va the status quo. I've already said my brain is falliable, but there are just some things that don't make sense.

If it makes you feel any better, the fact is that human memory is utterly unreliable. It's one of the reasons eyewitness testimony is no longer the gold standard in court, among other things. We simply don't have very good recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a feature of the brain, well-documented in psychology.

Exactly, and when it comes to symbolism, they stick in the memory even harder, it's why most of the people remembering ME examples are of small logo changes.

Or phrases that have been incorrectly transcribed into the broader lexicon, or misremembered historical occurrences...in all honesty the Mandela Effect is probably a symptom of a society able to generate and procure massive amounts of information without the requisite context or education for proper synthesis.

There are some things that have me shook for sure. I don't do drugs and have been checked out by a psychiatrist. Something's are just paranormal and are difficult to explain. There are tons of people remembering things differently over the last few years, and I'm a young 28. Example of some small things that have me shook. I was OBSESSED with peanut butter and Kit-Kats as a kid, and I vividly remember a brand called Jiffy peanut butter, it was never called that apparently , it's called Jif. I also have family from Italy, and vividly remember the geographic location of Silicy being quite different from today's location, Silicy use to be much further away from southern Italy than is portrayed today. Just weird stuff. I'd like to chalk this up to the mind being fallible, but I'd bet my house mortgage on it. Eh... Sicily has been where it is now, in the same spot. Maybe off a few inches because of tectonic plates... I know this because my family owned a travel agency when I was a child and I spent a lot of my time there with nothing to do but look at maps and brochures as a kid. Do you see how useless and self centered this anecdotal evidence comes across? Get over yourself Edited March 28, 2018 by Ol Dirty B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 In the past year or so I have been hearing the people on the History Channel pronounce this word differently that I recalled it from my youth Neander - thall or Neander - tall Ne·an·der·thal [nēˈandərTHôl] NOUN an extinct species of human that was widely distributed in ice-age Europe between c.120,000–35,000 years ago, with a receding forehead and prominent brow ridges. The Neanderthals were associated with the Mousterian flint industry of the Middle Paleolithic. Also the Planet Uranis Ur[your] anis or Ur a[h] nis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
