I equate Mandela Effect to a posh ditzy blond girl
You know the "I thought we made the Grand Canyon" types.
People that half listen, aloof, not paying attention to detail, but believe that they are intelligent enough to simply hear something once and account it from memory.
I mean there is a reason no ones on here going "9/11?. I though it was 9/12"
Because thats too major to "forget"
We talked about Mandela in school. It's just one of those things that you learn and should be able to retain in memory.
I remember the kid next to me in school when we discussed it in class during 9th grade.
I remember the trailer to the movie with Steve Carrell (Dinner with the Schmucks?) where he looks at a picture of a guy with Mandela and goes "You know Morgan Freeman?"
I remember the funeral, and the camera panning out, while it showed an African wearing a suit, with a pamphlet on the funeral process, and constantly pinching the top of his nose and eyes as if not to cry, before the session began. Probably a family member.
I remember all that from a quick viewing or scan, so it boggles my mind when we got morons on here going "I thought he died in the 80's"
And all of the other nonsense that people attribute to Mandela Effect.
