It has happened to me twice now.

And I'm not talking about the L&HH message boards that I know I was very active in.

Just like you have an off hand thought about a movie or show, go to that message board and find an old post, you don't remember writing.

Yes, it happens now and again.

It's happened to me a few times.

What's stranger is this: I was looking for DVDs of a TV series I was a fan of. I found a set on Amazon and read the review. As I was reading this it sounded so familiar and I finally realized it was a review of the series that I had written on IMDb. Somebody had done a copy/paste job.

I hate lazy creeps like that.

Multiple times.

I found a comment that I really agreed with... when I was just gonna say "Dude that's exactly what I was thinking!" but then I realised that it was my old username on IMDb.

Holy shit! I thought I was the only one that happened to.

I posted about this a while ago where I read a post and I completely agreed with it, and then noticed it was me.

I've had that happen too. I felt disappointed.

[–] samoanjoes (50956) 4 years ago

Could be worse. I could have disagreed with it and called myself an idiot.

[–] zaq123 (2389) 4 years ago

I should have explained that I was disappointed because I thought that there was someone else who agrees with me exactly and says so just like I would say and lo and behold, it was me.

On a board I was active on, like Seinfeld, sure. But unexpectedly? Can't say that I have, or if so I don't remember.

This happens a lot on there and also YouTube.. I'll be reading something and think wow what a great comment and realize it's my own

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 4 years ago
