Yep, people will sometimes hear a story and years later act like it happened to them. And it's not always dishonest, sometimes they really think it did. Usually nothing quite that dramatic, of...

Re: Do you often feel nostalgic?

There's some similarity, though the key difference is that the Mandela effect is about shared false memories and not personal formative ones. And it's usually incidental changes rather than ones...
