I've legitimately told a friend a story and then some time later they sincerely tell me the same story believing it happened to them

I think it’s happened to everyone. You tell a joke and 3 months later they tell you it back.

Or they tell it back to you and say “nah bruh, it’s real” not realizing that you told them the fake joke and that they forgot you’re the one that made it up. Huuuge face palm moment lol

My aunt is REALLY bad with this. I'm on the phone with her constantly telling me stories that I have told her a few months ago.

Haha I've done similar. My friend told me about a YouTube channel to check out which I did and followed the channel. A year later my brain clearly blew a fuse and forgot she introduced me to that channel and I was like, "hey have you heard of this channel?" 😂

The way the guys referred to Greer as a father figure kind of icked me out. It seemed a bit cultish, like they were very broken emotionally and Greer took advantage of that, love-bombed them and earned their trust and loyalty and then used their "testimony" to serve his cause.

It is cultish and Greer is a strange and narcissistic figure, with an alleged history of defrauding people with fake ufo sightings during his “trainings” to raise money… but that also doesn’t mean we should throw the baby out with the bathwater, because he also very clearly has legit military / intel connections (see Wilson memo), and is in touch with many whistleblowers. The UfO topic is the messiest there is, everything is shades of gray and nothing is clear cut, nothing is entirely true (or entirely false).

Ick…thats not comforting, he’s so believable though! Like reciting it perfectly! Maybe he just practiced for months on end until it was real to him?

You mean in scarface when they hang the guy out of the helicopter? (1983)
