geebsI'm glad to learn I'm not going insane. Or at least not more insane than I already was. Anyways, NBC released an early stream of the 2nd season premiere of Friday Night Lights. I watched it only a few hours after the link went up, and made a recap/commentary here. Cut to a few days later, when ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
clevemire has gotten around to watching the stream and reading my recap and is all, "What the hell are you talking about, that's not how it happened at all!" I didn't think I misremembered it, so I pulled up the stream again, fast forwarded to the scene, and sure enough, it went down as he said it. But that wasn't how I remembered it at all! I figured I was slipping universes again.
If I may go off on a tangent for a moment, I use the term "slipping universes" often here, and I realize I may have only explained what I mean to a select few and others are prolly all confused. Anyways, you know how certain sci fi shows postulate an infinite number of parallel universes with minor to major variations? And on those shows they can travel between them (Sliders, the Quantum Mirror on Stargate)? That's what I refer to as slipping universes. I dunno, it just seemed like there were times throughout my life where people's personalities would do a total 180 for a few days (like I used to think they hate X, and then a few days later, they're all, "I love X", and then when I call them on it even later, they're all, "What are you talking about, I never liked X!"), or a fact that I knew about their personal history changed. It felt like I was slipping through parallel universes. I know, you're thinking, "So you think you're traveling between multiple universes, and in one such trip, the only variation was in an ep of some TV show you watch?" I just figured I could only slip between minor variations, hence not ending up in a world where the Germans won (why is that so popular in sci fi?)
But I digress. Cut to Friday, when other people who had seen the stream early and watched the ep last night were all, "That's not how it happened!" Turns out there are two versions. But why they changed the stream within a few days of posting it, I don't know.
