Mpemba effect

The Mpemba effect, sounding similar to the Mandela effect, is when you misspell or misattribute something to a similar sounding word. For instance, writing 'like pottery' instead of 'like poetry'. Because of this, the Mpemba effect is itself the Mpemba effect of the Mandela effect.

Q: Where did the term 'like pottery' originate from?
A: Oh, that's just the Mpemba effect working on 'like poetry'.
