The Mandela Effect is a theory going around of a person remembering someone one way, and another person remembering the same thing but slightly different. Some people believe that these small differences are marketing or business techniques or possibly that the Mandela Effect isn't real at all. Whatever the reason, these false memories have some people thinking their memory sucks. Does a parallel universe really exist? The list includes some examples of the Mandela Effect. Depending on which picture you think is correct, it could be which universe you are from. Which things do you remember?

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper?

Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
