uh no you see this has a very good explanation
first is that people don't normally look at every single letter in the spelling of word like you don't look at antidisestablishmantarionism and just say immediately "hey there's an a there thats not supposed to be!"
second is that most people watched it as kids and then forgot about it completely except for, and this is important, how it sounded.
After that, they use the spelling that they think makes sense given how the pronunciation sounds, and that's with an e not an a.

thinking that this means parallel universes is extremely silly on multiple levels

i thought the same thing until i went into my old toybox that had a few books in it, and it loving said berenstein like 11 years ago, and now it says berenstain. explain that stuff

Either you're remembering it wrong or there was a typo. Even professional book writers aren't immune to misspellings. I've seen plenty of typos in professionally written novels before, this is just like that.

i have the image of me looking at the book 11 years ago as a 4 year old child, and it said berenstein.

ah stuff not this myth thing again

no, the berenstein/berenstain/bearenstain/bearanstein bears are not from parallel universes

it's been a long time since i've heard about this (last seen/heard about it on /x/), but somebody ended up pulling up a few good points that rather destroyed the theory

iirc, it had to do with how we remembered the berenstein/berenstain bears being spelled. we end up remembering it either rightly or wrongly, and somebody ends up making it into this big thing

there are covers, i know, that spell the name differently on purpose. if i remember this correctly too, i think there were covers that were spelled different ways in different countries and spelled differently depending on the time period it was from. at some point the books maybe ended up getting shipped in from the other country, and maybe leads to some confusion


in the end i think the berenstein/berenstain/bearenstein/bearenstain bear confusion is just us getting mixed up with how we remember it being spelled from our childhood, especially since so many people say different things about it we end up getting caught up in it too.

if there are parallel universes, a children's book in our own universe isn't going to prove it.

if the multiverse theory is correct then that means there is an identical copy of yourself who's life goal is to find and kill you

i think it's a parallel universe and there's no way to convince me otherwise

it genuinely frightens me

So being admitting that your wrong is so bad that you have to write a loving theory on parallel universes?

how are differently spelled copies of a book parallel universes?

i want your own guys' word and not the word from the link

i found a reddit thread on this that has some good points https://www.reddit.com/r/Glitch_in_the_Matrix/comments/243a9m/i_found_proof_that_the_berenstain_bears_were_once/
