Butterflies & Mandalas

R: You guys never believed me.

R: Now I've got proof.

G: You're STILL running those butterfly effect simulations?

R: If a butterfly...

G: I know... flaps its wings on another continent...

R: No, the other one... comes back from a paleo-safari stuck to the mud of your boot...

G: So you ARE going to try it!

R: Someone already has!

G: What?

G: When?

G: Who?

R: I'm not going crazy. Mandela was released. He went on to be president. It's "Cup O' Noodles." I lived on it in college. The cereal called, "Froot Loops," is spelled with two"ohs" in both words. It always has been. And no matter the color, they all taste the same.

(On the lab table is a newspaper with the headline "Mandela dies in prison!" as well as a "Cup Noodles" cup with the "O" written in sharpie and the "Cup" circled in sharpie, and also a box of "Fruit Loops" with each color laid out and a corresponding actual fruit beside each color.)

G: The Mandela Effect? That's your proof?

R: Whether someone is actively changing the timeline...

R: ...or whether there is no objective consensus reality anymore because of all the punking...

R: ...it doesn't matter.

R: No-one has any respect for history OR reality!

R: So why can't I change it?
