Mandela Effect--this is not funny anymore, (personal experience)

Ok, here is what happened.

You put the black alcohol bag in the back of your truck. You already had an empty white bag back there. While driving, the bottle rolled around a lot and escaped the black bag and rolled into the white bag.

Check your truck for an empty black bag.

Did. Twice.

Black bag is poofed.

The bed of the truck is totally covered, to put equipment and tools. Right now there's nothing in there. There was nothing in it before. This is a newly issued vehicle for me to work out of.

I actually have a somewhat similar story.

Two friends of mine and I made a late night subway run several years back. We all got footling subs, but they were all different. The SANDWICH ARTIST out mine in its own bag, and handed it to me prior to finishing either of my friends sandwiches. He then put those sandwiches in a bag together.

So, my sandwich by itself and my two friends together.

The bag literally never left my hand except for a few seconds when I paid, but their sandwiches were still being made.

When we got home, I pulled my sandwich out of the bag, except it wasn't what I had ordered. It was what one of my friends had ordered. Mine was in the bag with the other sandwich.

EXPLAIN THAT

Reality is SUBjective. XD

lol funny thread i am not ruling any of this out either. i made a post (that i thought was kind of silly) about a plastic drink cup i bought at target not too long ago. the cup had arrows on it not diamonds and crosses. thats what i remember at least...

this is the cup in question:


i read up on this dimensional jumping thread on reddit and im still waiting for the cup to change back somehow or find proof that it was what i thought it was

Black Bags Matter.

I distinctly recall Chelsea Clinton as a newbie to the WH. She was, shall we say, less than "cute as a bug", and was harrassed by SNL, comedians, etc...

We were told then, that Chelsea was adopted and that's why she was... odd looking.

Tonight, Bill speaks at the DNC about Hillary's pregnancy with Chelsea and when her water broke...screeeeeeching hault. W-What?

I asked my houzekeeper what she recalls and she too thought Chelsea was adopted by Clintons.

Hmmm....

I'm a ramp agent at an airport.

we just had a blue and white cooler disappear on us.

We have been getting mandela-ed all over the place. We like to joke and blame everything on the mandela effect but in all seriousness, we do believe.

I'm not kidding either.

Weird stuff has been going on, besides all the regular changes.

Our theory is two or more universes, or realities or dimensions are bumping into each other and the border in between them is weakening in spots. Allowing realities to merge and sometimes leak into one another.

Whatever this is I think it is an ongoing progressive event. The separation between universes is becoming less and less.

If this is true, as more and more changes occur, it will become undeniable something phenomenal is taking place.

Here is a stretch to ponder (pun intended)

REDDIT article on stress induced crystalization

Besides the various properties of the plastic resin itself, there's also a good amount of mineral fillers used in common plastic items. Everything from trash bags, soda bottles, and car parts can have mineral fillers. Most commonly they're talc, calcium carbonate, feldspar, or calcined clays. As you pull or stretch the plastic making the material thinner or just exposing more surface, the difference in the refractive index of the mineral fillers to the resin becomes more noticeable. Black plastic trash bags are one of the easiest to see this. Usually they're filled with talc or calcium carbonate, which is fairly bright to begin with and in these applications is ground pretty fine. It will scatter the light pretty easily and appear white as you slowly stretch the black plastic bag.

So, did you stretch the bag? and also, what is in the back of the truck? (materials, equipment , etc..)

I walk the same route every day or two, have been for over ten years now.

On the corner down the road a mile or so is a very well known drugstore pharmacy. Seen it every day for years now. Iconic logo sign, always check the LED sign for the summer temperatures. No big deal right? Left town for two hours the other day, came back, and the logo part of the LED sign had changed.

Really cheesed my biscuit because I distinctly remember they had changed the iconic and well known font to a cheesy neutral bland font and I remember thinking "I can't even leave town and go to the lake or they start in with the stupid g-damn changes again!"

Well, walked by it again the past two days and guess what.

The iconic store name font is back on the LED sign in big red letters, and the "drive thru pharmacy" part is the only thing left in that corny generic font.

Weird, right?

a reply to: charlyv

Yeah. Sorry, that's too much hahah. But I appreciate you offering a very unique angle to this.

The black bag was blank. The white bag has several rows of red lettering saying THANK YOU and 'please recycle'

Am in SLC for work. My 2nd day here and need some beers. I don't know the area very well and the traffic is insane. Drove a few blocks to a gas station to see if they sold alcohol. Thought, "Oh this is close enough to walk next time. Good."

But then was thinking I'd do that only if they put alcohol in black plastic bags. There are Mormons circling around the apartments here and I don't want to be THAT guy who says, "I'd like to listen to you, but I'd rather be drunk right now."

You know, I'm just trying to be tactful in a place that's strange to me.

Black plastic bag. Cool. I won't feel like I'm brandishing my rebellious habits as I walk to and fro now. Put it in the back of the truck.

Get back to the apartment. White/ transparent-y plastic bag that shows off the contents.

I was stunned. I am just flummoxed. This just happened, right now, all about in the last 10 minutes.

There is no mistaking this. It's all still fresh and tangible in my mind. HOW???

This wasn't something like, "Didn't that sign used to say...?" or "Wasn't that house a different color...?"

This was something I was actively thinking about and paying attention to as it happened. This is just beyond weird.

You clearly did that to yourself since you were already imagining you were going to get a black bag. My first instinct would be something paranormal happened, not the mandela effect. Some type of intelligent being from a shadow biosphere playing a trick on you. It was always a white bag...you had a heavy hallucination, without taking any heavy drugs or being half asleep and hallucinate from sleep deprivation.

a reply to: NarcolepticBuddha

Maybe the bag is a new chameleon plastic that remains black while under the florescent lights of the store, but as soon as it spends time in a different type of lighting situation it morphs into a friendly thank you and reminder to recycle?

a reply to: GENERAL EYES

Well, I think the point of the black bag is exclusively for alcohol, to make it discreet.

a reply to: NarcolepticBuddha

Yeah, but if you're home by the time it "shifts"....it's done it's job.

I dunno, it's a freaking weird world out there.

I have no explanation that makes sense, it's all theory.

Water into wine, black bags into white ones.

Crazy stuff dude.

a reply to: GENERAL EYES

Indeed. It's a crazy world.

It's nice to see you again GE

Plot twist.

Tomorrow they only carry brown paper bags

But in all seriousness. I submitted this to the mandela effect reddit, and got no traction.

Despite all the wild and weird changes the most recent one that is blowing my mind is the change from Neopolitan Ice Cream, to Neapolitan.

I have strong anchors for this one, and it's just not right. Even the freaking ice cream.

Another little side story. Prior to the Mandela Effect me and my old man (he's not much of a conspiracy buff but will always at least listen) would be hanging out and literally watch things just almost phase out of existence right in front of us. All of 2015 we were joking around and calling them Time Slips....until I found the Mandela Effect. I firmly believe to those of us AFFECTED it most definitely happens at the smallest and weirdest of individual levels.

so is this all supposed to be random? or has anyone deliberately tried to change their reality?

a reply to: AnonymousStateCollege

sure enough, neopolitan is now neapolitan.......

wtf, we have another one apparently......

a reply to: NarcolepticBuddha

i CBA addressing your mandela delusions - but hey - the big problem here is the fact that ou have forgotten that you live in a free country - why are you bothered about people knowing that you drink ?
