Sligthly off topic but I think this actually may be some kind of Mandela effect, because I think a large number of people actually think the commercial said ‘You wouldn’t download a car’ because of all the memes but it actually said ‘You wouldn’t steal a car’

If I could steal a car by downloading it over the internet without depriving the original owner of it and with similarly low risk of getting caught/prosecuted for it I would absolutely steal a car. I wouldn’t steal a font tho, that’s just beyond the pale. :P

I’ve heard that too, but I saw the original commercials and remember it as ‘you wouldn’t steal a car’.

Huh, I thought it was called the Mandala effect

I mean, just think about the meaning. “You wouldn’t download a car” doesn’t make any sense lol

My eighty year-old parents have “borrowed” my car for a year.
I, too, would download one if I could.
