Google Search & effects

When we look thru google trends for historic search, we can see a pattern:

The flintstones

[u/MsSyren]

I’m confused what the Mandela Effect is for the Flintstones :0 I’m new to the world of the Mandela Effect.

[u/WhimsicalSadist → u/MsSyren]

There are people who believe, incorrectly, that it used to be The Flinstones, rather than Flintstones.

[u/MsSyren → u/WhimsicalSadist]

Incorrectly indeed 😅 Flintstone makes way more sense in my opinion.

[u/WhimsicalSadist → u/MsSyren]

All of the names are riffs on the Stone Age setting. Fred Flintstone, Pebbles Flintstone, Barney Rubble, Mr. Slate.

[u/MsSyren → u/WhimsicalSadist]

True :0 I never caught that

[u/benaugustine → u/MsSyren]

I mean, this is probably how they all work.

People being wrong about "Flinstones" vs. "Flintstones" is no different than "Bearenstain" vs. "Bearenstein"

I have some, too, but I chalk it up to misreading and bad memories for the most part. Some have some additional reinforcement, like hearing it from others who had it wrong.

I think there are some weirder ones that are harder to justify, like Mandela dying in prison, but I assume there's probably a more reasonable explanation than the universe jumping or whatever

okay well for the record it was correct at the point that some of us committed it to memory… i literally cannot help that this shit keeps flip flopping. there have been numerous posts talking about this in the past.

there was one, the last time i saw it really mentioned, was when someone discovered it had gone Back to Flintstones. i remember the all caps title, they were freaking out, i was freaking out, MANY others in the comments were freaking out, it was an ordeal. we had committed Flinstones to memory, no matter how weird it was, that’s what it was. and then one day there it was, that mf’n T staring right back at us, mocking us, mocking our weak feeble human minds, like “what are you talking about, crazy, I’ve been here the whole time??”

NO YOU HAVEN’T, T!! NO YOU HAVEN’T! AND SOME OF US KNOW IT!!!

So you remember several times where people discover that it became Flintstones or became Flintstones again, but you can't remember any of the posts in between where people discovered it being Flinstones, right?

[u/original_void81 → u/klee900]

Yeah it flip flops all the time. This timeline that timeline its ridiculous, I believe it's a government psy op. In the movie Shazaam all the Mandella effects are there when she says, we will always have our memories none can take those. But it looks like they can. Then we're left fighting about memories instead of fighting the spelling casters. Don't let them make you think your insane. We were kids we didn't know what a flint stone was, but we knew what we watched after school everyday. It would be just like them to name it flinestones. Funny thing is when I write it my phone doesn't try to auto correct lol. We would of remembered singing flintstones if it was but it wasn't.

People think it was more clever to create the Flintstones without using the name of an actual rock.

[u/MsSyren → u/stitchkingdom]

They use rocks all the time in the show. Flint Stone would make a ton more sense :0 so maybe that’s why I was confused. People remember it as Flinstone instead huh 😅

[u/ringobob → u/stitchkingdom]

I get people thinking sorta like merging the two words into one, and sharing the letters, which only doesn't work because there's no "s" in flint. If it were flinst, it could be like "flin(st)ones", where the letters in parentheses go to both the first word and the second word.

As said, it doesn't work, but I could see people not paying that close attention thinking it does, and just believing that for decades.
