Electricity was invented the same time as Windmills were at their peak. The Infernal combustion engine was never invented.
He wasn't that nimble, silly beggar fell down a hill
Same story, different number of goat kids. The mother does the cutting and sewing.Anyone know the one about the three goat kids that got ate by a wolf and when he was sleeping, they cut him open, replaced them with stones, and sewed the wolf back up. The wolf then drowns when he falls into the well, attempting to take a drink.
I remember hearing it as a child. Pretty gruesome though for today's market
My daughter showed me some of these recently - I was sure I was 100% correct about the Forest Gump chocolates one, even hitting Youtube to find a video to prove her wrong, but nope - it's 'was' not 'is':
- It’s Sex and the City, not Sex in the City
- “We Are the Champions” by Queen - many of those familiar with the song remember the final lyrics being “No time for losers, ’cause we are the champions … of the world!” Guess what? There is no “of the world!” The song just ends but people feel 100% sure that they’ve heard otherwise in the past.
- People think the Monopoly man, Rich Uncle Pennybags, has a monocle, but he doesn’t.
- Darth Vader doesn’t say, “Luke, I am your father.” He actually says, “No, I am your father.”
- C-3PO isn’t all gold. Many Star Wars fanatics recall C-3PO being completely gold and were greatly thrown off upon discovering that he’s supposedly had a silver leg the entire time. A lot of memorabilia doesn’t even feature the silver leg.
- Kit-Kat doesn’t have a dash. It's KitKat.
- Life isn’t like a box of chocolates. It seems that the majority of people confidently remember Forrest Gump stating that his mama always said, “Life is like a box of chocolates.” Well, it turns out that he actually said, “Life was like a box of chocolates,” despite what you may’ve felt you distinctly remembered.
- If you’ve seen The Silence of the Lambs, you know the most famous line is “Hello, Clarice.” The only problem is, that never happened — and when Clarice first meets Hannibal Lecter, he simply says, “Good morning.” That's it. How is a film’s most well-known line nonexistent?
- Interview with the Vampire isn’t called Interview with a Vampire.
- It's Fabreze not Fabreeze. The second e isn't in the product name, but it doesn't stop people searching Google for the 'ee' version more than the correct product name.
- E.T.: When the wide-eyed extraterrestrial requested to contact his home planet he doesn’t say 'ET phone home' but actually 'ET home phone' - even still, it just doesn’t sound right ...
- Crocodile Dundee, in the subway, to the knife wielding thugs, he says: "That's not a knife ... this is a knife!" - right? Well, no, what he actually says is "That's not a knife ... that's a knife!" as he holds his knife up.
- “We Are the Champions” by Queen - many of those familiar with the song remember the final lyrics being “No time for losers, ’cause we are the champions … of the world!” Guess what? There is no “of the world!” The song just ends but people feel 100% sure that they’ve heard otherwise in the past.
It is a standing joke in my wife's family, she is often accused of this even remembering her brother who is 2 years older than her being born.She will argue black is white because she can "remember" what happened, even when it happened before she was born.
But were you around in the 9th century maybe fashions have changedVikings did not have horns on their helmets.....living in Denmark. I know this.
In fact it was the wolf and the seven little kids. I remember being terrified of those Grimms fairy stories and made all the more horrible by the rather disturbing illustrations by Mervin Peake.Anyone know the one about the three goat kids that got ate by a wolf and when he was sleeping, they cut him open, replaced them with stones, and sewed the wolf back up. The wolf then drowns when he falls into the well, attempting to take a drink.
