The Mandela effect is for people whose ego is so large that they believe that being catapulted into a parallel dimension without having noticed is a more plausible explanation than that they’re slightly wrong about something insignificant

    the panel on the right is in fact right, the weird logo stuff bothers me because.

    1. who cares ?
    2. counterfeit/fakes exist
    3. misprints
    4. actual logo changes

    The typos? You better believe it, you read that wrong, but see point 3 as well.

    as much as I want to think it's only ego, there's absolutely no way SO many people independently of each other remember the fruit of the loom logo had a cornucopia

    ...granted there's absolutely no way the solution to this conundrum is an alternate universe lmao

    I’m with you on the cornucopia, there’s no way that logo didn’t exist somewhere.

    Also keep in mind that nowadays we live in an age where something as insignificant as a logo change becomes headline news.

    It's entirely possible the company ran some market analysis and discreetly changed the logo a few decades ago. Maybe a shirt still exists out there with that logo, but it's hard to find since cheap t-shirts and underwear don't last as long as something like tailored vintage clothing. I'm sure if you spend enough time searching on the internet you might find something, but personally I cannae be arsed

    The human brain has a tendency to see what it expects to see. That's why most people don't notice I've been deliberately misspelling Untied States for over a year. The brain just assumes it says what they expect it to say
