(OFF-TOPIC) VIDEO "Bedtime Stories" on Mandela Effect, with my--THE--explanation of the phenomenon.

People see what they expect to see ("Berenstein"). Movie lines get adapted later when people use them ("Luke, I am your father"--I remember that one shifting to that for a candy bar commercial). People deceive themselves, whether to back up a mistake/lie or to make a preference "real" ("It's not a lie if you believe it"--George Costanza).

We are inundated with information more than ever in recorded human history (the Internet). 

(Yes, it's happened to me very substantively at least twice.)

Interesting, but realistic.
