    I’d rather believe in unconscious interdimensional travel then accept that my memories might be wrong.

      My two acceptable hypotheses:

      • We are in a simulation and these are remnants from server migration/discrepancies in the instances.
      • These are dry runs of the man seeing what history they can get away with rewriting and convince us was true.

      No. I cannot create false memories. Nope. I can’t do it. I won’t listen to you. It’s not true! Nonononononononooooooooooooooooooooo! This isn’t my fault! 👉😫👈 lalalalalala

        The worst fucking lie they made up was the pronunciation of GIF being based on the peanut butter company. That is exactly the sort of bullshit excuse a shadowy cabal looking to rewrite history would come up with to gaslight everyone into believing it’s true.

            Just because the guy is good at tech doesn’t mean he’s good at naming things.

            I’d like to site the names of like… Half the FOSS software I see.

              Yeah, we devs and computer people aren’t good at names. Half the time the name is the acronym of what it is/does RAM, CPU, GPU… Othertimes its something the Dev thought would be cool.

      The flip side of this that that you can be lied to without consequence. I’m not saying most of these are real, but pretending like this has never happened is asking for an additional serving of boot.
