Normal people: Serling. Although it’s often understandably confused with ‘Sterling’ as that’s a more familiar word and sounds very similar.
Idiots: No, no, no, I am from a parallel universe.

If I came from a parallel universe and the only difference is an easily mistaken spelling of a name I'd be quite disappointed.
I mean Serling and Sterling are so close it seems stupid to me to call it Mandela effect. More like humans gonna human.
Is it actually a Mandela Effect if you've just forgotten what a guy's name is? I always thought it was more about mass confabulations.
I don't even know the guys name.
But yeah, Mandela effect is everyone believing something that differs from reality. Like Berenstain Bears being remembered as Berenstein.
