However, other people call this the Mandela effect.
Okay, stay with me here because this has been a strange day. Apparently for the last two years I have found a glich in the matrix on the same day. Let me explain....
First, this isn't supposed to be shameless self promotion, but it works out so I am not going to argue here. I am writing another E book that is about writing prompts. Today, I wrote a new one that goes very similar to this. It isn't done yet but keep in mind that I wrote this today while watching Bob's Burgers....
Writing Prompt:
You are a sub teacher and you got called in to teach 7th grade history. You glance at the lesson plan and are excited because you see it has to do with JFK. However, you read the suggested essay and become extremely confused. The question says, "discuss who was the better President, John or Robert Kennedy?"
You are obviously confused and ask to see one of the students books, then another, and another. According to this history book and lesson plan, JFK never was killed and lived until the age of 52 where he passed away from a heart attack. Robert served 2 terms as president. When you ask about him being assassinated, no one has any clue what you are talking about. What is going on?
The strange thing is this.... About two hous ago, I put on Youtube to watch Good Mythical Morning and had a video recommend to me about Jackie Kennedy killing JFK. What? I had to look into that! So, this video shows for some strange reason this video shows a new angle of Jackie killing JFK. Now, could this video be fake? Of course it could. It is very easy to change things to make people think that it is real. The big thing that people are questioning besides this video is how many people were actually in the car? Records say at one time, there was 4 people in the car. Now, it is being shown that there were 6 people in the car. Back in the day, the car was shown as a four seat car with no bullet proof glass. Today, this car is a 6 seat car with JFK and Jackie in the very back, the Governor and his wife in the seat in front, a bullet proof glass barrier and a driver and another secret service agent in the front. People today are swearing that there were 6 people, and not 4 in the car.
I asked my Mom what she remembered. Mom has an interesting link with JFK. The week before, he was in a parade in Minnesota. At the time my Mom was working as a nurse in a Catholic Hospital. They gave all the ladies time to go and watch the parade. Mom remarked to her fellow nurses that he shouldn't be in this parade without any protection around him because someone will shoot him. He was in a car without any protection, and even walked in some parts. A week later, he was shot and killed in Texas. Mom clearly remembers 5 people being in the car and it only seated 4 people. In back was JFK and Jackie. In front was the Governor, his wife, and the driver. There were secret service people walking and driving behind them. So....who is correct or is history changing.

If you have ever read 1984, you know that book is become more and more real every single day. They talk about manipulation of memory and distorting history to match what Big Brother wants you to believe. Others call this situation memory issues. People hear lots of stories and don't realize that a memory isn't instant recall and a exact recording of what happened. You are removed from what happened to so your memory will not ever be exact. You may even be mixing up an event that happened with another event, or something that you have read or seen. Fair enough. I know that I have mixed up things before and it won't be the last time that my memory has failed me. I am human and I understand that I am not a computer.
However, other people call this the Mandela effect.
The Mandela effect is how some people recall that Nelson Mandela died while in prison in the 1980's. While others knew he lived and he died much more recently in 2013. I personally recall hearing that Nelson Mandela passed away in prison and I was actually confused when I heard he was released from prison. Now, could myself and many other people be confusing one story with another. Sure. I do remember having a conversation about this with my Grandparents, however, and we all believed that he passed away while in jail. The people who believe in the Mandela effect think that being mixed up or misunderstanding this story is more than poor memory. They think that it is a glich in the matrix. They think it is history rewriting itself because of either timelines being crossed or an alternative reality.
While you may or may not believe in this effect,it ties into my very strange day. Not only did this strange JFK thing happen with me writing this prompt and seeing this Youtube Video, but Facebook also showed me that today was a strange day a year ago. Timehop showed me this status posted one year ago today:
"Random Disney movie question. Does anyone remember watching snow white and seeing the dwarfs making her a coffin? I saw this question asked in a book and the lady asking swears it was in the movie. I do too but Disney films says no. What do you remember. Disney is famous for trying to change their own past."
I remember researching this for a day or so trying to find out the answer. Now, I do understand that Disney has changed things from their original releases and when they bring them back out of the vault. I have seen "Song of the South" when I was a kid and I was so offended even though I was still pretty young. Disney had to change it to get it released again because it was so horrid. My Grandpa who watched it with me when I was a kid said he say it before and it was even worse. So, I know this could be just due to being a change Disney made. Here are some of the comments made after I posted this because I still swear I saw the coffin being made by the 7 Dwarfs.
Person A: I remember that. Saw it in the movie.theater when Disney re-released the movies in the 80's
Me: I thought that too but according to the Disney spokes person everybody was mixing up the story and the movie. He said in the movie it was a bed not a coffin. But I swear it was a coffin!!!
Person B: I think theres a coffin in the book, but not one in the movie. I just you tubed it.
Me: Im so confused because I swear I remember seeing the coffin back in the 80's theatrical release. Maybe its something that was once there but has been "remastered?"
Person C: My mom has the 80's VHS, it's in there.
See, no one can agree on this. All of this recall is very strange but what is very weird to me is that I recall the time and space and the glich in the matrix the same day in the last two years. What is happening here? I am very, very confused!!! I'm also confused as why this is highlighted while I am typing and I can't get it to stop. Anywho, I have no idea what is going on here but something strange is going on! I think the world is a big place, and we have no clue what is the truth verses the perception of truth. The internet is something we don't fully understand but we use it all of the time. You can use these little machines to do everything from making cat videos, to banking, to putting information out there that you have made up. People will believe what is put in front of them if they are told over and over again that it is the truth. We don't even understand the human mind let alone how memories work. If this Mandela effect something that has some merit to it or is it something that is another false memory. I'm not sure what is correct but I can tell you that July 30th is a strange day for me.
