Because of this theory's popularity in the conspiracy theory thread, I wanted to introduce the rest of GAF to this absolute mindfuck and see if we could solve this together. Now many of you might remember the popular children's book and cartoon series known as the Berenstein Bears. The thing is, it's actually called the Berenstain Bears. There are no official records of a name change yet many insist that at some point in time, the spelling was Berenstein, not Berenstain. This theory seeks to offer an explanation: http://woodbetweenworlds.blogspot.co...living-in.html This is generally referred to as the Berenstein/Berenstain Bears alternate universe theory A TL;DR from reddit:so im pretty sure i remember stein, not stain. the more i think about it, i can even remember my mom correcting me in how to pronounce it when i was younger..QuoteBasically, we used to live in a universe where it was indeed spelled with an E. There was another alternate universe where it was spelled with an A. If you check now, it is spelled with an A, and always was. Some time between the 90s and today, the "A" universe overlapped the E universe, and now we live in the A universe.It genuinely confused me when I first heard it. I swear it was spelled 'Berenstein' and there are conflicting reports everywhere. Many believe it was always Berenstain and children commonly read it as Berenstein and remember it as such but many online claim that it was changed at some point without any real indication. Some believe this is an example of the phenomena known as the "Mandela Effect" where many people seem to have real memories of events that never occurred. The theory gets its name from the individuals who had the memory of reading/hearing about Nelson Mandela dying in prison, while no such event ever occurred. Looking deeper into the theory, one can see claims of converging timelines, where tiny details change and overlap, giving us memories of events that occurred in timelines other than our own. One of the more popular examples of the Mandela Effect is the image of Henry VIII eating a turkey leg, a painting that appears to have never actually been created (The image here was created from memory) yet some people do remember such a thing existing. Oh and the Simpsons already parodied it Now, back to how this fits in with the bears. Our current timeline is the "A Timeline" where BeranstAin is the correct spelling. We formerly inhabited the "E Timeline" but at some point the two alternatte timelines crossed and the E's were changed to A's, changing BerenstEin to BerenstAin. This is the Mandela Effect at work. We have memories from a timeline other than ours when two alternate universes unknowingly converged at some point in time.Odds are it was probably always fudgy Berenstain and the internet is overthinking things as always Edit: Possible evidence that many people in this thread might not be insane:

AnonymousAugust 21, 2014 at 4:38 PM This can more or less be explained with Casualty. Something from a similar Universe slipped into ours (wormhole, blackhole), due to this our Universe started pulling the other Universe incrementally in (In our time perception) to eliminate errors, as the only option is assimilation, which has a chance of following with destruction. And, due to this, the foreign objects in our Universe also started pulling our Universe to the other Universe, thus assimilation, as time goes by, the two Universes swap out objects ad infinitum, eventually realizing the loop both Universes begin deleting the foreign objects, to keep the other Universe from pulling and pushing, this has two effects, it can keep the both Universe stable with minimal loss, or it can destroy one or both Universe due to everything being deleted. (Even the Universe itself may pull other in, due to how this works) So, again, this ends in either assimilation or destruction, for one or both Universes. If I am correct, and didn't leave anything out, the Berenstein Bears and Berenstain bears are a symptom of this.
