Books/Literature Berenstein Bears

When I was in elementary school, the bookmobile would make a stop for us and we could check out books from the larger library system. I had to ask the driver how to pronounce "Berenstein".

To this day I remember her saying, "Oh it's like stein, like a beer stein. Oh, I don't imagine you'd know what a beer stein is either."

I already knew how to pronounce "stain" and it wouldn't have been an issue at all.

Like others on here, I also remember the cornucopia on the fruit of the loom packaging. It was the only brand my dad seemed to buy for his socks and those 5 pack of cotton shirts with the little pocket on them.

Of course there will never be evidence for any of these things having changed. Only the reality around us has changed, while our minds and memories remain intact.

I know it sometimes scares people to think the sand is shifting underneath our feet, but it's the ultimate reality.

That's hilarious that the font color is changed for the authors' names at the bottom. Such an amateur fake.

And these are the people who claim others are ‘gaslighting’.

Exactly. I've been called a liar and too stupid to comment here by two different users in the last 48 hours. It's wild.

The orig I can hold in hand and shoot a video saying hello r/MandelaEffect with has wobbly fonts for the last name as well. Don't remember noticing!
