We're all a little mad here.

10 Mandela Effects That Will Make You Feel Crazy

If you don't know what the Mandela effect is, you've probably been living in a box for the past few years. It's a crazy phenomenon that occurs when a large majority of people remember something a certain way, but when we revisit it, it turns out to be completely different. The most popular occurrence was the well-known "Berenstein Bears" book series. Blowing everyone's' minds, it turned out to be spelled "Berenstain Bears." That one truly made me reconsider everything. Not all Mandela effects appear significant to everyone, but these are a few that boggled my mind.

1. Jif Peanut Butter.

I swear I could remember picking up a container of "Jiffy" peanut butter at the store when I was younger. Turns out, it's always just been "Jif." So where did we all pick up the last few letters from?

2. Febreze.

It would make way more sense if it was spelled "Febreeze," right? Wrong. It's always just been "Febreze."

3. Kit Kat.

I love eating Kit Kat bars, they're one of my favorites. I always thought there was a dash between Kit and Kat: Kit-Kat. That must've been a hallucination because it's literally just Kit Kat.

4. Double Stuf Oreos.

The proper spelling of this would've been "Double Stuff" which is maybe why we all didn't remember that it was JUST "Double Stuf." But, why would you do us like that, Oreo?

5. C3PO has a silver leg.

I could've sworn this robot from "Star Wars" was fully made of gold metal. Turns out, he's always had one silver leg. Ummm... what?

6. Chartreuse.

There's a huge discrepancy over what color Chartreuse really is. Some of us always thought it was a magenta pinky color when in reality, it's more of a forest green.

7. Snow White's mirror.

Don't even try denying this one. We always remember the Evil Queen saying, "Mirror, mirror on the wall." Well, to our surprise, she never said that. She says, "Magic mirror on the wall..." BYE.

8. Curious George.

We all know Curious George, the MONKEY. It would make sense that he would have a tail, right? Wrong. He literally never had a tail.

9. Looney Tunes.

We all thought it was "Looney Toons" since they were cartoon characters. So, why the heck is it now called "Looney Tunes?" Which, by the way, makes absolutely no sense.

10. Oscar Mayer.

You know, the brand that makes cold cuts and hot dogs. People swear it was called "Oscar Meyer" with an E. Nope, it was always "Oscar Mayer."

There's so much more to explore for yourself, some you may agree with; others not so much. These, however, truly had me disturbed.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
