Thanks for not closing this. It does fly in the face of that “Fighting Ignorance” slogan, but it’s very entertaining… IF the OP is sincere, and not just spinning a tale to mess with us. I would seriously love to hear the evidence for South America moving. And how “the locations of Germany, Italy, Japan, and Korea (both of them, right?) are apparently being altered on a daily basis.” And done supernaturally? By whom? It doesn’t sound like the kind of trick YHWH would pull… AhuraMazda or The Coyote God maybe? ---

The model builds on the concept of continental drift, an idea developed during the first decades of the 20th century.

Were this true, I could not have found this via Google: “Stove Top is a stuffing that was introduced by General Foods in 1972. It is a quick cooking stuffing that is available in supermarkets. Unlike traditional stuffing, Stove Top can be prepared on the stove, in a pot, and can also be prepared in a microwave oven.” ---

When the Mandela Effect occurs, there’s almost always- if not always- what’s known as Mandela Effect “Residue”, the leaving behind of evidence of what things were like before the universe was altered. Stove Top Stuffing was, as millions of people like myself and k9bfriender and Kevin James remember distinctly, produced by Stouffer’s corporation, NOT Kraft. That’s what’s been changed in our timeline- the COMPANY THAT MAKES Stovetop Stuffing, NOT the product itself. As for the changing of the world map: I am NOT referring to Plate Tectonics, for Christ’s sake. I am referring to the supernatural changing of the size and shape of countries like Italy, the Koreas, Cuba, and the continent of South America that occurs in a very BRIEF period of time. No one has yet responded to my Dogs Playing Poker argument, either. Here’s another one: In the opening of Disney movies in which the Disney castle is shown, 100s of millions of people, myself included, remember Tinkerbell flying onscreen and tapping the top of the castle with her wand to make it “magic” or whatever. This, too, has been erased from our timeline. ---

This, too, has been erased from our timeline. No, it hasn’t. You’re likely remembering openings to “The Wonderful World of Disney,” as below, though it’s possible that they used similar animation on older versions of films. The fact that Disney changes their intro over time, and updates the intro when they re-issue films, is not “erasing” things.

> [@Something](#): > > Stove Top Stuffing was, as millions of people like myself and k9bfriender and Kevin James remember distinctly, produced by Stouffer’s corporation, NOT Kraft. I did not say that I remember this distinctly. What I said was if I had to guess, and you gave me that as an answer, I probably would have gone with that. What it is is that I _don’t_ have a strong memory of it, and something like Stouffers sounds like something that would go along with stuffing. Human memories are pretty fickle and malleable, and if I suggested something to you like, Tinkerbell tapping the top of the castle, then you would likely suddenly have a “memory” of that. I know nothing about “dogs playing poker” other than there are paintings of dogs playing poker. If you showed me the real ones and fake ones, I’d not be able to tell you which was which. I seriously doubt that many others could as well. ---
