Yes! I think that’s a really important part of the journey. Peace ☮️ | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |

Fiona has just announced in Substack that she's going to free mandela effect dot com comments,in multiple platforms soon. Including WordPress. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
This was the purpose of the post. Thank you 🙏 | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I would disagree that ME dissonance is specifically related to fear of mortality. Rather, I think it reflects a fear of the unknown, wondering what's real, and whether one is losing their marbles. The concept of existential fear or crisis is rooted in an internal conflict that encompasses a range of emotions and has many different causes. Mortality is just one. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
That's welcome news indeed! | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |

That's what you consider. People love mystery,and ME is a mystery with promise of QI. Existentialists are more afraid of immortality than mortality, one life is enough of a burden. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Does experiencing one transformative episode of dissonance-related existential terror, or even just a mid-life existential crisis, make that person thereafter an existentialist? Can't it just be a one-off paradigm shift or temporary personal struggle? | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Existential crisis is primal. The ego of outliving others smothers all other feelings. The ephemerality glorified by James Hadley Chase, is another popular option. So we have these 2 kinds of personalities,those obsessed with outliving others and those obsessed with living it out big. The first one is ubiquitous the second is quite daringly open. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Thank you for this reminder. I needed this today😊😊 | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |

In my original timeline, that song was released in 2009. I remember it vividly. Then 2012 came along and it was suddenly popular again….or so I thought. People were acting as if the song was brand new! I looked up the release date on the internet and it said it was released in September 2011. Does anyone else remember hearing the song as early as 2009? | r/retconned | post | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |

It came out when I was in highschool which was 2011-12 | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
The group wasnt formed until 2010 on a Tv show
If it had come out in 09, they all would have been like 14/15 when it came out | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
So the music video has a 1960’s VW camper bus with the VW logo completely missing from the vehicle?? | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Wait, doesn't this comment break rule #7 and #9? | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Yeah, so how come I got downvoted? | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-24-08 |
Probably for the same reason my post got downvoted. People are dense about the randomest things. God forbid I describe a mandela effect on a mandela sub. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-24-08 |
Any of you older people remember this song having lyrics, I distinctly remember a few of the lines, it really bothers me because the internet says he only ever put out an instrumental version but I remember my grandma playing the original vinyl | r/retconned | post | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I'm not familiar with this song but I looked it up out of curiosity. Why are some listed as "instrumental"? Seems redundant if it's never had lyrics | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I just listened to it and it’s almost as if I can here him singing it in my head but I can’t specify what the words are it’s weird | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-23-08 |
I wanted to ask just the people who have experienced a full flip flop of a Mandela Effect about some of the "side effects" of it. When I learned about the ME in 2017, I also heard about flip flops but nobody (that I saw) ever mentioned that these flip flops also cause other "side effects" such as:
* YouTube videos about the Mandela Effect no longer able to be found.
* Same with Reddit posts and/or comments
* YouTube videos about the ME being mirrored/opposite or altered in a way that fits the "new reality"
* Reddit (or other site) comments also changing along with the flip
* Anything else you've seen that you'd like to mention.
I posted about my first flip flop that happened in June and I didn't expect every single ME video about Apollo 13 to disappear. I literally only knew about this "Mandela Effect" because of those videos. I only watched the movie clip because of those videos. I memorized what it was and saved it for later in case it changed (never thinking it actually would but it did). Once it changed, almost all the evidence that it ever was something else (including the very videos which taught me about it) are gone. Only evidence like "residue" with the quote still being written as a "misquote" on multiple sites (which is incorrect now) and other's similar accounts of a flip flop at various times remain.
I'm curious about your experiences. | r/retconned | post | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |

The most disturbing part of my flip flop is that I can't remember what it was about. At all. As if erased. I just remember that I had one and that it blew my mind and left me irritated for days. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Tidy Cats went to Tidy Cat for like a week for me. I was shocked, looked up patents etc. Could only find Tidy Cat. I never had a cat but I KNEW it was plural. I went to the big box store the next day and remembered to check it out. Tidy Cat everywhere. Ok, new reality. Got it... Then it changed back and nobody else had noticed it seemed. Never flopped again, just the sensical cats, plural. Anchor memory coming from a commercial about being able to handle multiple cats. I'm kinda thinking I'm going to go check and it'll be singular. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Still plural. Cool. Scant residue, just a couple third party sites and reviews. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I think flip-flop is a bit of a misnomer in the community that implies a duality that isn’t there. I have seen four major versions of The Thinker with some minor changes in between. I think everything is changeable within its own probabilities.
Many of us experience videos changing, disappearing, reappearing, etc. Also new videos and photographs will appear that were never there about new events like the Black Tom Explosion. There are photographs from the Lindbergh Trial. That case was famously unsolved in my original timeline.
https://www.mnhs.org/lindbergh/learn/kidnapping
That makes Simpson jokes like this not work now:
https://youtu.be/V3vlrRzzXk8?si=Jr9U13oWTbUscP41
I tried to find meaning in the changes themselves when I first started experiencing them, but I think there is a more meta take-away. There are a lot of probable outcomes in the world, so I try to focus on the ones I want to see and joke about the rest. FWIW . | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
For YouTube, and Google, specifically, I would be skeptical of coming to the conclusion that the reason you can't find videos related to ME (or other topics) is related to the ME itself. YouTube actively deletes/removes videos about anything that even comes close to approaching something "conspiracy related" to include the ME.
Google as a whole does this across all its products as well.
That said, other places that aren't so censor happy it may be a reasonable to assume that the phenomenon is ME related.
I've experienced several of these types of things myself. For example, when "the thinker" flip flopped a couple years ago I made a post about it that got pretty good traction. When It flipped again, I went searching for the post to attempt to link the conversation into my new post, but it was no where to be found, which I mentioned on my second post. Then, when it flopped again (I don't even know how many times that has flopped for me. Atleast 8-9 times at this point since I've known about it. I stopped paying attention to it now tbh) I went searching for my second post or any comments I made to others within the thread I made and I couldn't find anything.
And on a related note, during that same time period I also went looking for videos about the thinker that I know I watched, and what I was able to find was *different videos* from the same content producer that discussed the topic, but it was discussing change 2 as if it was the "orgianl version" and change 3 as if it was the first "new" change. I dont know if that makes sense... but yea. Wild stuff. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
It's something I only noticed last year and it's pretty crazy.
A multitude of discussions just gone. It's something that blew my mind and took a few minutes to reconcile what had happened.
It's something we should give more thought to, thanks for reminding me! | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I replied to one of your posts then deleted bc I didn't realize it was in the \~other\~ sub. I wasn't going to repost bc I didn't feel like I had much to add, but I did remember something!
Micky Mouse's tail
I read countless posts and ME lists that mentioned Mickey's missing tail. About 2 months ago ish, the tail came back. Now all posts and lists just talk about his suspenders. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Elden Ring on Nintendo Switch.
I swear it was real and I was going to buy a Switch to specifically play it. I read about it online and on Reddit and then all of a sudden it's not a thing. Drives me absolutely crazy | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Now I'm curious what you said over there lol. Idk why I even posted it there. Maybe one or two people will give their experience there or I'll just delete it.
Okay, so for Mickey, you read a bunch of posts and lists that had the tail as missing, then when it came back, all of those posts are no longer there and only mention the other ME about his suspenders. Got it.
Tail is new for me, I think I might have told you that already. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
It was just basically agreeing with you that flip flops flip EVERYTHING, even posts you might've posted.
And I get why you post there. It's why I still check it lol
And yeah we've talked about the tail. Your not remembering it is weird in and of itself. For me, it was a very common one. Like if you knew about the monopoly man, you'd know about Mickey's tail.
Flip flops are the only thing Im 100% positive about. I can't be sure that logo I remember from when I was 12 is a real, reliable memory. But I damn sure know what I saw 2 months ago. That's why I love them (and am also low-key terrified of them lol). | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
If you want to share any more, feel free! I'm all ears. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I had a very personal flip flop. I seem to be missing entire conversations I had on facebook. Now I know the other person can delete what they wrote to you but only I should be able to delete what I wrote. All of it is gone now and this person insists they didn't say what I thought they said. I remember it very well though and now I am left wondering what happened. Also now I have zero proof and maybe in this reality it didn't happen. This is exhausting. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I remember a guy said his own video he made about the Apollo 13 change vanished from both his youtube and computer, like it never existed | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I personally have one major flip flop. I have one other but I always doubt my memory on it and don't feel as confident about it so I tend to not share it.
The one I am certain of (well, as certain as you can be about this) is The Thinker statue. I honestly have no clue if his hand is on his forehead, his chin, or if he is making a fist with that hand at the moment as it genuinely (from my perspective) keeps going back and forth every few months/years. I am aware this sounds utterly insane.
Every time I notice that it flip flops, the narrative changes online and in my personal life. People will say, "I always thought it was on his forehead/chin!" or "I thought he was making a fist/not making a fist?!" depending on the change. It is one of the weirdest things in my life that I have absolutely no explanation for. I have observed this happen MANY times over the years.
I have just accepted it at this point and have given up tracking it. This has been happening since at least 2016 for me. It used to feel VERY eerie and I would spend hours looking through forums and subreddits to find people that agreed with me. Now I just kind of go "huh" and move onto the next thing. I mean, there is nothing I can do about it. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I'm in the same boat with the Apollo 13 movie. When I first heard about it, i wasn't sure either way, but "Had" just felt wrong so I went watched my copy of the movie. Sure enough it was "had". It was even a completely different camera angle. When he said "had", it was a full body shot of Tom Hanks. Then when it switched back to "have" (along with froot loops with 2 oos for "oo oo ah ah"), my copy of the movie changed and the Mandela Effect video on youtube was gone. Trying to tell people about this makes me sound nuts. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Yeah, the Thinker seems to have changed twice for me and some people say it's like a different type of a thing since it seems to have multiple forms instead of just flipping back (although it appears to flip back for some people too).
I remember the Thinker with his hand (a fist) on his head. That was the statue. Then the Mandela Effect in 2017 was that his fist (I am pretty sure it was a fist but it was at least his hand) moved to under his chin. Now, it is still under his chin but it's not a first, it's like an open hand which I don't recall ever seeing. So, I think it has changed a third time and others say the same thing so it matches what I recall.
So, you've seen narratives change to reflect the current reality or a possible previous way that it was (maybe being the same or different from what you remember) -- this is happening now for me after my Apollo 13 flip. A lot of things that I didn't know were flip flops became them (although now I am thinking anything can be a flip flop). But a lot of people who remember these "new to me" other flip flops (Fruit Loops is the big one) remember the original as the opposite to me (I remember Fruit Loops -> Froot Loops. They remember Froot -> Fruit -> Froot). I noticed FrOOt in Korea on either my first or second trip so 2015 or 2016 and thought it was bizarre and a new branding for the kids or something or maybe a regional branding since I was in Korea.
I'm still curious what the other flip flop might but even if you're not 100% sure on it. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Well when you talk to others who have experienced the same or similar thing, you don't need to feel nuts.
What is the "oo oo ah ah" for Froot loops? And Froot loops is a flip flop for you? Was it Froot -> Fruit -> Froot? I have seen a lot of people say that on here but for me, it was Fruit Loops and then the Mandela Effect was Froot Loops (and I never heard about it flipping but I guess that's beside the point cuz my original is the opposite/mirror of some others. But I still find people who remember just Fruit -> Froot as an "old school" Mandela Effect).
Copy/paste from another reply: I noticed FrOOt in Korea on either my first or second trip so 2015 or 2016 and thought it was bizarre and a new branding for the kids or something or maybe a regional branding since I was in Korea. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Not being funny cause I've never played a souls-like but I do havea switch (bought a total of 2 games so far lol) how could Elden Ring ever fit on the switch? That console hasn't been upgraded since 2017. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I saw what could be considered residue for "Fruit Loops" occuring in a show. I went to rewatch multiple episodes and couldn't find it again. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |

That’s a good point about online resources being erased, beyond the effect itself - the recent update about the ME sub, how every thread there was downvoted to zero and most comments are bots solely posting there as skeptics - also bots posting as ditzy people reporting fake MEs in a way that sounds comical and undermines the real phenomena. There’s definitely a misinformation campaign going on.
I’ve been noticing just this week that Google is showing even fewer results than usual on these topics. I wonder if screenshots would help or just disappear too! | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Nah I totally get that. I feels like I hallucinated the whole thing over a two week span. I don't get it | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
> doubt my memory on it and don't feel as confident about it so I tend to not share it.
ive heard there are multiple sculptures so i kinda gave up investigating. for me fist under chin was original either only one or by far the most famous one that was used in all media befpre internet. what do you think? | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Apollo 13 was the biggest flip flop for me. I experienced it with my son's dad, we both watched the movie when it was "had" bc we both loved that movie & we're testing the ME theory since we both experienced other changes. We watched that scene and it was exactly as you described it with the different camera angles & "had". Then months later we watched again and it had switched back to how we remembered it "we have a" & previous camera angles. It is the reason I'm a firm believer in whatever the F this is.... | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
flops I've had: liberty/Ellis Island, VW, and THE THINKER.
google results changed, no record of it in my conversations, and most reddit posts referring to the ME in inverse. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
same, except It was originally fist on chin. then head. now chin, open hand. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
same experience. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I am sure on this too and also think Jokes are the biggest resude (similar joke in American dad) | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Yes. For me, I think it was Froot, to Fruit, and then back to Froot. I threw in the "oo oo ah ah" because talking about 2 o's made me think of an episode of Seinfeld lol. "Koko with 2 o's for oo oo ah ah"
To be honest, I can't be 100% sure about the froot loops one like I can for Apollo 13 and some others. I really only remember other people saying that one also flip flopped the same time I heard Apollo 13 flipped back. That was part of the reason I was trying to find that first ME video I saw on YouTube. I was pretty sure the froot loops one was also discussed in that video, but I couldn't really remember what they said about it.
This whole thing is nuts. There is so much about reality we don't understand. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Learned about the hat from AllTime on YouTube. I don't have a strong enough memory about a hat or not but deep down, I don't remember a hat. It is pretty thick looking in this photo... I showed it to my wife before and she was like "what hat" and I had to find another angle and then she was like shocked by it but it's really thick now. Looks like inches thick and doesn't really look like hair anymore.
He's so contorted with the way he has both hands/elbow on the same left knee. I don't remember if it was always like that but it looks very uncomfortable-looking to say the least. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I'm glad someone else agrees the camera angles where different 😀
Yeah. Seeing this one flip flop right in front of me really made this phenomenon hard to ignore. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I have also heard there are multiple casts of the sculpture in different sizes but that ALL have always had the same form. Just different sizes, colors, etc. I think that could be verified but I am too lazy rn to look it up but that's what I heard on various videos (even after this last change to the loose hand under the chin). | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
VW is the first that came to mind. Funnily enough, it's because yesterday I read a thread from before the flip flop, when the logo didn't have the space. So these comments remained unchanged. Interesting. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Do you know where you saw that?
For me, VW changed once from never having the space to having one probably in 2016 on my second trip to Korea (might have been first trip in 2015). It hasn't changed since. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
That statue has flipflopped for me so many times I cant even remember what the original was supposed to be anymore. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I've had an idea.
I believe that the Mandela Effect is in part meant to strengthen our hold on the truth despite what the world may be insisting.
The flip-flops serve this end as well, and the disappearance of the original flip discussions too. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I'm always super unsure on this one | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I have a fun anecdotal story.
2017 was the year I began noticing things as well, so I guess it was only right I discovered Retconned at that time. I never would have thought my "misremembering" was actually a catch-all phrase for anyone sensitive to variances in timelines. I would have gladly accepted *"Okay, that's just the human brain doing it's thing, we all do this from time to time.. Ya know, confabulation happens"*...... And I'm fully aware of the 100+ logical explanations for how 10,000 people or more can remember the same "wrong memory". Things like swapping one memory for another because two scenarios or presentations are very similar in nature/aesthetic, and so on..
But no, I had determined a long time ago that I remember certain things as sure as an apple is red. My biggest point over the years to deniers goes something like this : Recite the alphabet. How sure you you about that? Are you SURE that A comes before B? Are you ABSOLUTELY SURE? If so, tell me why? Well the answer is clear, isn't it? "Because I recited it over and over and over again until I memorized it"...
Now, there are certain things in life, such as things that have been recorded in the media (films, books, tv series, and so on) where we actually have physical record of how a thing was done, said, or appeared. Other things in life we don't always have the luxury of saying "Let me go grab a recording of that to review....".... Also, other experiences in life, we will never re-see or rehear over and over and over again.
But you know what we DO have repeated exposure to, as sure as the alphabet? Books, films we love, books we live, logos, etc. We see them every day. It would be an under statement for me to say I have seen Lord of the rings 30 times, or to say I watched I love Lucy reruns growing up on 100's of occasions (Yeah, Ricky said in almost every episode the "Splainin' to do" quote).... Repeated exposure. So there are things in the "documented" world where we have had repeated exposure just like the alphabet. What does that turn into? A LONG TERM memory - not a short term fleeting thing like a conversation that was had or what color of shirt your mother wore last Monday. We don't get to see that over and over and over again....
In 2017 - I spent six months (roughly) in "one version" of many things. And watched all of those things switch back abruptly. Those things included (but not limited to) the thinker statue *(I saw your timeline where he had the fist on the forehead for many months of my life that year)*, the switcheroo of Interview with A (the) Vampire, the Ford logo, Flin(t)ones, amongst many other things. The odd thing was, my original was gone, and the alternate versions had replaced these things. I was in conversations right here on Retconned debating with people about why the Flintstones had always had a T (this was my original). But all these people who SWORE UP AND DOWN they were absolutely sure it had never had a T, passionately debating how ridiculous it was that we remembered it that way, fought the other half of us to the core. The community was split down the middle. I remember one girl saying *"How silly would it be to have a T? It doesn't even mean anything!"*. To which those who remembered, their reply was: *"But of course it does! FLINT, like a STONE, FLINTSTONES were used to make fire in stone age times, hello!"*.... It didn't matter. The T was gone, and many insisted it had always been exactly like it was (missing the T). Until one day, it returned. We shared books, VHS tapes, etc. to confirm it wasn't an online glitch. T was no where to be found.
This also happened with the FORD logo in 2017. The way it is today is the way I grew up with... However, there was a time in 2017 where that little curly cue WAS GONE. The way everyone today says they remember it - well I was there for six months or so. I remember going to Youtube and seeing a video of a man who WENT into a Ford dealership. He asked the sales people to NOT look outside at the logo for the memory test. He then presented them with two versions of the logo on the table and asked them which it was. They pointed to the one with the Curley Cue. He then said "look outside".. Sure enough, it was gone and the F just had a straight line coming off of it. The sales people were shocked as heck..... They couldn't believe their memories had been wrong. Later when it all flip flopped back - I contacted the man who made that video and found the video again. The WHOLE VIDEO WAS IN REVERSE.... I told him that his video use to be in reverse with the versions of the logo. He said he 100% believed me and was stunned.....
Anecdotal story time over..
Whew... | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
it was always Fruit Loops for me my entire reality. people started posting about how they remember Froot but i never remembered it. then it flipped back to Froot. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |

if thats true then 100% m.e. for me fist under chin sitting on a rock elbow on thigh totally iconic | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
I remember the Lindbergh case being on Unsolved Mysteries in the 90s with an age adjusted photo of what the baby would look like. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
My major flip flop was Froot Loops to Fruit and back. I didn't really post about the ME until then because I was uncertain of its reality. Another thing is I was on an Earth with a huge Mongolia, then it vanished, then reappeared but smaller. Then Japan moved south and then back north, North/South Korea moved to the south part of Japan instead of the north. Soon I'll be in a world where Earth is the fourth planet from the sun or something. Also the moon is EVEN BRIGHTER, and I thought it was brighter before but wow... Full moon making the sky look like twilight. Never noticed it that bright long ago, just in the recent year. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-21-08 |
Yes, me too | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
Froot Loops did the same thing for me recently as did Flintstones. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
I think my post may have been confusing. I don't doubt that The Thinker has changed for me - it absolutely has. Why or how, I have no clue. The words you quoted were in reference to another flip flop I may have experienced that I tend to not share because I doubt its validity. Hope that helps! | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
Funny enough, the other flip flop I think I may have experienced is the Froot Loops phenomenon. I remember it changing from Fruit Loops to the new spelling (Froot) along with Sugar Bears changing to Golden Crisp as some part of a rebranding in the 90s. Like, "they" were worried that spelling it as "Fruit" was misleading people into thinking it was a healthy breakfast. I remember my family discussing it in the car on the way home from elementary school one day.
Then, I remember there being a Mandela Effect (in the mid-2010s) where people remembered it being Froot Loops but it had changed to Fruit Loops for them. Now it has always been Froot Loops.
Like I said, I do remember this occurring but it was way fuzzier than The Thinker statue and I am not as confident.
That is interesting about Apollo 13 and Froot Loops for you. There HAS to be something to all of this. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
I saw the same thing too, as fruit. So strange. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
I remember the fist under the chin, too. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
sorry i didnt mean to quote im on phone not sure why it quoted. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
Tail is new for me too | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
Like that scene in scary movie 3 with the police officer’s hat lol | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-22-08 |
There's also a fist on forehead version that was active from 2020-2023 I think, at least for me. Then early this year it flipped to weird hand on mouth you're describing. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-23-08 |
That's exactly the one that makes it feel like a social experiment to me, like somebody wants to see if they can confuse us and make us forget the original. For me I think the original was a fist under the chin, then it flipped to fist on the forehead and now it's a weird open downwards palm under the chin which looks so unnatural and weird, never seen anyone in real life make that gesture. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-23-08 |
Yep, the Thinker is the weirdest to me because it has like 3-4 forms I remember that kept on flip flopping around while other things have only 2 forms. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-23-08 |

Graceland is in Memphis, I bet that’s why you thought he was born there. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
There was music industry there back then, so the place had significance in his life. But he was not born there. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
FYI his hair color was fake. He had naturally almost blonde hair but dyed it black to match his mother’s hair color. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Elvis was always born in Tupelo (in my timeline). Also from the UK. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
(No sound on video) This is more of a Mandela effect phenomenon or maybe this is not supposed to be seen lol. I found this on Pillsbury website, would this be considered residue or...... let me know your thoughts on this. Me personally his scarf was always blue. | r/retconned | post | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |

Although it could be a form of mockery | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Is it blue now or not? Blue seems so familiar but also it's kinda navy-ish | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
No it's not blue anymore, apparently it's "always been white" but I think not | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I always thought it was blue | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Most definitely BLUE on my timeline !!
Good catch OP | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Nice find! The only blue ones I have seen in my searches for the OG kerchief were not official. This is the one I remember from my childhood. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Family Guy [residue](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdPxGYxi0-M) . | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I definitely remember blue | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I also swear I remember it being spelled “Pilsbury” not “Pillsbury” | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Me too, wth? | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
I remember the advert. The jingle, Say hello say hello to Pillsbury dough, so easy to use' and that finger pressing it's round white belly and it screwing it's face up and making a little giggly laugh and the kerchief being light blue. | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Poppin' Fresh is literally on the current website with a blue scarf
https://www.pillsbury.com/doughboy
I can go on ebay right now and buy vintage salt and pepper shakers with blue scarves.
Obviously, they use the white scarf most of the time but occasionally, a blue one is used. What's the big cover up here? | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
Excellent find! | r/retconned | comment | r/Retconned | 2024-20-08 |
