People who reuse your stories...

This one time I was telling a friend a few months ago about how the other day at school I asked to borrow this dudes lighter, light my cigg, and handed it back to him. When I handed it back I noticed black burn marks on the bottom of it. So I looked at him and asked if he smoked and we got into a cool random conversation about weed.

I see that same friend I told about that a couple days ago and he repeats the story back to me as if it were one of his own. He repeated it nearly verbatim. I decided not to call him out on it as he is an old friend and we rarely see each other. Why do people steal stories as if it happened to you.

Best part is it isn't that great of a story to steal. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Eh, I have never heard of anything so stupid . Why the hell would some one remember a story some one else told them and tell some one else as if it happened to them? I just don't understand...I don't think anyone I know is pathetic enough to take a story I told them and re-use it.

are you sure you didn't steal that story from me? Because practically the same thing has happened.

Fellow stoners always know to check the bottom of the lighter. And know what it means if they find a small patch of resin.

I check whenever I borrow a lighter. It makes me feel like a detective or something.

Maybe you and your friend just lead very parallel lives...

word, its how cops can tell if your stoner or not, although they cant exactly use that as evidence against you or anything

Could be, it was just that is so ver batim (major spelling error), and I remember telling him about it because it happened a few days ago. And now that I remember I didn't talk to the guy the guy who told me the story back added that. So maybe after hearing the story something similar happend when he bummed a light and just forgot he got it from my little rambling.

I will give him benifit of the doubt.

My life isn't so boring that I need to tell someone elses story as my own, so, no, I don't do that as that is quite lame.

i like to reminisce with my homies of past times, past crimes, past dimes and key limes

Well, imitation is a form of flattery, after all. What I hate more is the One-Ups. If you tell a story, they chime in with a bit better story.

Example. You find a couple grams of weed you didn't know you had. They find a couple quarters. You win $100 playin poker. They just won $300 the other night. etc etc.

Man I hate that.

It really bugs me when someone does that. What do you say to them when you can read into exactly what they're trying to do and realize how stupid they look?
I'll just say, "Oh okay, you're better than me.", then they'll say something like "Thats not what I was trying to say..". I'm just standing there staring at them like they're idiots, i just say 'okay?'
Argh, people are so predictable now, its getting boring and fustrating. Its the same thing over and over.
