I knew a guy when I was a freshman in high school in the year 2000 and he would not stop talking about how Japan already had PlayStation 7 and that the US was not allowing it to be sold in America.

I was in elementary school in the mid 90s and had a friend whose mom owned an independent movie rental store. He claimed that because of this he was able to get all kinds of insider info in the movie industry. My favorite was that George Lucas originally planned 9 Star Wars movies, and that three of them, taking place before the original trilogy, were already in the works. What nonsense.

I paid a couple kids to shovel my sidewalk. That's when I knew I reached the "back in my day" milestone.

Mine was my uncle who bought me a set of Time Life conspiracy theory books.

Nice name change. At first I thought someone was copying your shtick but then I realized you were the authentic product
