“The Monopoly Guy Does Not Have a Monocle”: People Share Mind-Boggling Examples of the Mandela Effect

Next on our list of quotes from the screen that literally everyone gets wrong, we have your boy James T. Kirk. Now, everyone agrees that he said “Beam me up, Scotty!” at some point in the show, right? If you don’t know anything about Star Trek, then at the very least, you know that much, right?

Wrong! He never says it, though he does say similar things at various times. I wonder if The Original Series’ age has something to do with it; I bet there aren’t that many people anymore who go back and watch it, so I bet for a lot of people, hearing that quote in other pop culture properties is the only exposure that they have to the show. So, of course, they wouldn’t realize the quote is incorrect.
