there have been a couple of ME things that have made me take pause, but this is not one of them. I 100% remember "it's NOT easy being cheesy"

Ya know...with just about every thread you post....if the thing you're posting about didn't actually exist at all any more in any form i'd be all over this #....but remembering the 'word' ain't instead of not is not anything. Maybe if suddenly his phrase was something totally different like # yeah cheese mother #er... or maybe if they turned him into a #ing zebra or something alright alright....but no just come on....
These threads are always such a let down...I get so hopeful....
The only two of these i've ever been convinced by is the James bond movie one with the girl in the braces and jaws....because the first time I watched that movie my dad explained to me why her having braces made jaws cool with her and was literally the point to her character. That and apparently, in the draft version of that movie she was supposed to have braces but ended up not.
And the bears....I learned to read and spelll by sounding out words i've always read them as Steen in my head...there's no way I would have ever pronounced it like that if it was spelled with a ain...i'm not a #ing idiot...that and my girlfriend never seen the books at all until 2006, when she was 18, when she was working in a school library. She thought they were a family of Jewish bears because their name was berenstein....
The idea of alternate universes and such really appeals to me. But so many of these just seems like grasping at straws.

If i remember correctly both of those instances was cleared up. The bond one was explained by the actors themselves in an interview. There is a thread buried on here about it. The bears was also cleared up by company records that showed the branding had changed when the cartoon came out.

I doubt most people are upset, just simply flabbergasted anyone could be so gullible.

Where I absolutely agree with your sentiment, its also perfectly fine for them to disagree with you and your theories - its a two way street.
Continuing on, I'd like to ask, as you're someone who is clearly into the whole Mandela bit; how do you think it works?
