Humans are often considered the smartest species in the animal kingdom. What sets us apart from the rest is our ability to reason and deduce to understand the world around us.

However, there are moments that defy logic and leave things unexplained. These are often the eerie coincidences and strange déjà vus that keep us in a state of bewilderment for days, perhaps even weeks. In recent years, society has referred to it as a “Glitch in the Matrix” as a nod to the 1999 sci-fi film.

If you’re scratching your head as you read, here are some images to help you understand better.

Déjà vu is one of those instances in which our brains cannot fully comprehend what is happening. It’s that feeling that you’ve already seen or experienced something, bringing a sense of familiarity to something supposedly new.

But according to Dr. Akira O’Connor, a senior psychology lecturer at the University of St. Andrews, there is no phenomenon here. It’s simply a case of misplaced feelings.

“Déjà vu is basically a conflict between the sensation of familiarity and the awareness that the familiarity is incorrect. And it’s the awareness that you’re being tricked that makes déjà vu so unique compared to other memory events,” Dr. O’Connor explained to BBC Science Focus.

Dr. O’Connor clarified that experiencing déjà vu is perfectly normal for a healthy-brained individual. As he noted, misremembering details is a common occurrence because our memories involve “millions and billions of neurons.”

“For the vast majority of people, experiencing déjà vu is probably a good thing. It’s a sign that the fact-checking brain regions are working well, preventing you from misremembering events,” he said.

Another “Glitch in the Matrix” is the Mandela Effect. The concept came into existence in 2009 when a group of people mistakenly thought former South African president Nelson Mandela met his demise in the 1980s in prison. In reality, Mandela passed away in 2013.

According to Verywell Mind, confabulation is one plausible explanation for the Mandela Effect. Simply put, it’s when the brain fills in gaps in memories to make them make more sense, regardless of accuracy.

The formulation of false memories is the most common explanation for the Mandela Effect. This only proves that our memories, especially when recalled rather than vividly remembered, will more than likely lead to conflicting recollections.

#50 (Story) Shirt Missing For 4+ Years Showed Up Again

As a kid, I went to a summer camp, and I fell in love with a tshirt I got there. Over time, it started looking ratty, but I still kept it to sleep in. About 4 years ago, I took it to a hotel, and after getting home couldn’t find it in my luggage anywhere. Not my backpack, not my suitcase, nothing. It’s a white shirt, so my mom and I reasoned that I left it turned inside out on the bed and missed it during our final sweep of the room.

Well… I just finished my first year of college and moved back home from my dorm. I’m currently unpacking all my clothes and just found that tshirt. I didn’t see or wear it the entire school year, nor do I remember packing it, but it’s here.

Just thought I’d share.

#65 Glitch In The Matrix

I’m Cali 23F, my dad Frankie passed away when he was only 34 and I was 12. When his mom, my grandma passed away, my aunt was cleaning out her apartment and found this keychain with a photo of my dad from when he was little on it and gave it to me. Old school keychain the photo of him was cut out and pasted onto the keychain base. I adored this photo and had it hanging from my rear view mirror in my car, without thinking and after years of it hanging it started to get sun bleached, I took it down to try and preserve what was left. One day I was going through some things and all of sudden a brand new keychain identical to the original except in better condition than the original ever was popped up out of no where. My aunt who gave it to me was just as confused as me because when she found it she knew there was only one no doubts about it. I even asked my grandpa and he’s never seen either of the keychains before so he didn’t even know 1 existed. Where I found it was something I’ve gone through multiple times before and it was never there, I actually had recently moved when I first found it and it was not there before. My family and I were going through a VERY rough patch and my dad always knows when I need a sign from him he’s still there. My dad’s said hi to me in many ways since he’s passed this one is one of my favorites. He was my absolute best friend and I was heartbroken when I realized how sun damaged the first one was knowing it was something irreplaceable. Whatever force brought the “new” keychain to me I’m forever grateful for🤞❤️

#67 Asking For It Back Worked!

For Christmas my husband got me studded lab grown diamond earrings, something I had been wanting for a while. They were lab grown but I know they were still a few hundred bucks, which is a big deal for us. I loved them and only wore them occasionally and with 2 backs on them because I was so scared to lose them as I have a bad habit of losing one earring.

Well it happened. I came home and noticed I only had one. I was devastated. I didn’t want to tell my husband because I knew he would be sad and I felt really bad for losing something so precious and sentimental to me.

I immediately began asking for it back, to be returned, etc. I asked nearly every day and daily I would check all of the drawers of my jewelry box where the single one was hoping maybe it would just show back up.

Last night I walked into my room and there it was, lying on the floor right before the entrance to my bathroom. I walk that spot multiple times a day, the earring has been gone a month. I know there is probably a normal explanation for this but I am just so happy and thankful.

Thank you universe 🥰
