Apparently for years people have recalled a memorable line from a movie that they CANT remember that goes: “I want you to have *blank* I never could get the damn thing to work for me anyway, heh”. It’s been an intermittent but usually pretty dank meme fodder anyway.
They have 800 reply Reddit threads where nobody says Kingpin starring Woody Harrelson and Bill Murray which is exactly where the line came from.

that is because the average IQ of a redditor is 90
Willy Wonka never said anything close to "Do? It doesn't DO anything. That's the beauty of it!"
that line is from doctor who you moron
makes me think of Null Rod

What's Mandela Effect? crime rate goes up 1000%? First world country becomes third world in 30 years time? Dwindling supply of Goodyear products?
people now think their memory being inaccurate means the entire universe shifted instead of them forgetting something
the most famous example is the fruit of the loom thing which is viral marketing (and very smart)
maybe but the berenstein bears one is real
oh, yeah, that's real. my last name is similar to that so i got made fun of using them.
I am 100% sure it was berenstein
wrong, I remember as kid writing down the title of books I read as an assignment that Berenstain was intuitively spelled with an "a"
.......except a is counterintuitive since the vast majority of names end with stein not stain
I meant unintuitively
i literally remember it being stein because of people attacking my stein name with it
it is indisputable that "berenstain" products exist, I am simply stating it is also indisputable that berenstein products exist
I believe what happened in this instance is that the creators' names are berenstain, so they want to eliminate any idea that the works were ever produced with the incorrect name, for contract reasons. this is because the IP is now in the hands of a second/third generation of that family.
A lawyer advised them to do this and they have stuck with it, afraid of losing the golden goose, even though it's ridiculous
the fruit of the loom thing is intentional viral marketing imo.
im pretty sure this one is a thing because the berenstein spelling looks more correct. i think it could be even weirder than that though. people who read those books may have not even noticed there is an a in the last part of the name and their brain "autocorrected" it in their head to stein.
it's cause in the 80s there was a cartoon, and the cartoon pronounced it "bear-ensteine"
So kids remembered how it was SAID, not how it was spelled.
thats probably why i remember it as stein and now stain, im almost 40 and watched the show. i also had a bunch of the books and my mom used to read them to me. i should ask her if she remembers it as stein or stain. she probably remembers it as stein too

Some of it really comes across as just ignorance and stupidity (Mandela being dead for instance. He died during Obama's years. If he had died during his imprisonment it wouldn't be fricking relevant at all. It was his being alive and being the first president of post apartheid South Africa that makes him relevant. Like who fricking remembers the Indian nationalists who died before India became independent versus Nehru and Gandhi (I know he died right as India became independent, give or take a year but you know what I mean).
Fruit of the loom though does feel suspicious.
You can tell it's bs bc nobody with an in depth knowledge of the subject ever gets affected by it. Like for example none of Nelson Mandela's friends/family thought he died in jail, neither did any south africans. If his wife one day woke up and was surprised that he was still alive it would lend it some credibility, but it’s all americans who likely didn't really have good knowledge of south africa to begin with. Same thing with how nobody working at the pokemon company ever got confused by pikachu's tail.
Fruit of the Loom wasn't viral marketing. The old logo with the cornucopia was technically a different company that got bought out when they got sued for poisonong a whole town where their factory was. They changed their logo because it was technically a different company.
because this generation all gave themself brain damage from smoking weed every day that's why they want to legalize it now it's useful if the slave cattle can't remember groceries used to be cheaper and you could buy a house on 1 salary
my grandfather joined the Vietnam war at 17, came back home at 19, and had a house by 20 and a wife and kids and two cars by 21, working a lowly job down at the docks.
he then proceeded to crash 10 new cars by 30, buying a new one every time as if a new car was just a toy you abused for a while until it was destroyed then got a new one.
And now we're in a housing and job shortage, with millions of migrants being let in yearly.

low quality thread.
>I could never get the damn thing to work anyway
I distinctly remember Han Solo saying this. But I guess he didn't.
Very strange
No ur thinking of Obi-Wan when he gives the lightsaber to Luke.
what did he say it about you room temp IQ LOSER
>Boring conversation anyway.
I know that's a line when they're in the detention level of the death star.
>“I want you to have *blank* I never could get the damn thing to work for me anyway, heh”
Not a movie but this is in Mistborn.
That was Ted Cruz after he finally accepted Donald Trump and told Son he could keep the delegates because he never really knew how to work the damn things.
Kek I think this is where it came from unironically
Wait. The mandela effect now encompasses people not remembering stuff at all, not differently?
There are a couple of songs I can't remember the lyrics to well enough to look up. Is that the mandela effect too? Is there a different universe where I did remember the songs?
I fricking hate how the internet dilutes EVERYTHING.
To be fair, that does ring a bell but I'm definitely not thinking of Kingpin. Idk what it would be though. Could have been a videogame for all I know.
Shazam
I instantly thought of kingpin the watch and they really couldn’t? fricking morons
that's crazy i distinctly remember han solo saying this about luke's lightsaber or wookie's blaster or something. possibly indiana jones saying that about a revolver or whip, or it could have been him trying to use some kind of technology
same
Sounds similar to the scene in Last Action Hero with the movie theater guy gives the kid the golden ticket.
It happens in The Last Crusade when Indie returns the grail to Israel and they stomp it into little pieces.
I think its from Cold Mountain where a dying confederate soldier gives a union soldier one of his slaves
The stuff you guys are suggesting isn't reminding me of what I'm thinking of. It's not a watch or something like that, it's talking about like a space ship, or a car, or a generator something from before the speaker's time, and it's early on, like first act, and then in the 3rd act getting it working helps save the day. But I don't remember wtf is is either.
SHE HAD FRICKING BRACES!!!FACT!!!
So what is it from? I know this line and I've never seen kingpin
Seinfeld never asked what's the deal?
the cornucopia never existed
dolly never had braces
curious george never had a tail
it's looney tunes, not toons
pikachu never had a black tail
tom cruise shirt was pink in the risky business
it's berenstain bears
and mandela died in 2013
>the cornucopia never existed
This is actually provable, and was proven. Fruit of the Loom just lied about it as a marketing stunt.
This one insane girl not only provided undeniable proof(pictures and patents), but now she trolls the company by finding other fricked up shit they did and makes it public. The stuff she's accusing them of would get anyone sued. But she swears it's all true. So the only way Fruit of the Loom can make her stop, is to admit they lied.
what kind of moron thinks pikachu has a black tail
the same kind of morons who never actually read the froot loops logo and assumes they must be from a different dimension where they're called "fruit loops" like they're pronounced
Me.
The tip was a black square. Always has been.
and you're a moron
Any moron that thinks Curious George had a tail has never read or watched a single thing with him. He's a fricking chimpanzee
it's cause he's called a monkey, but is technically an ape
but back then, people called apes monkeys all the time
>the cornucopia never existed
2006 movie.
>curious george never had a tail
wtf
>fruit of the loin
yeah, of course it's got a cornucopia
cause it's not fruit of the loom
cause they're trying NOT to get sued for copyright
It takes a certain variety of fricking homosexualry to come here and post a reddit screenshot.
Just frick off and enthusiastically have a nice day
i literally heard this line in kingpins. he tried giving the b***h his watch, said it didnt work. as a cheap joke she later gives it back, ticking, because all she needed to do was wind it.
it represented him moving forward with his life
People incorrectly remember something about a large racial massacre in the 1940’s
Mandela effect is so quintessentially American
>something happened differently than I remember it
>no it can't be that my memory is shit, it's the entire universe that's wrong
