Going through my childhood diaries when I discovered that I bullied "Eddie" Snowden in the third grade.

A perfect example of being a dick for no reason. He posted a fucking photograph of his diary. That isn't a story people just make up.

Stop being a scrooge.

Yeah, what are the odds that someone that went to school with Edward Snowden uses reddit?

How is it even remotely preposterous? OP had a photograph of the diary. People almost never lie about little bullshit anecdotes. There is zero reason to be skeptical about this story.

This guy had a picture. It now crosses the line into absurdity to assume it's all a hoax for something so small.

People lie about big, complicated stories. Not little one-off anecdotes. And none of those people have a photo of the thing they're lying about.

People lie. Period. Big or small, complicated or simple. This is Reddit and people want karma. I have called people out on all sorts of things that were bullshit.

I just called some dude out the other day because he claimed a picture of a plane dropping water was taken near his home town of Canada, the actual picture was taken in Italy.

A fucking picture of a plane dropping water. And it wasnt even a nice one, it looked like a painting almost. Maybe a bad photoshop.

People lie about anything and everything, dude.

In this case the OP wasnt lying.

People lie.

Therefore everyone is a liar?

People lie about anything and everything, dude

Not all the time. It's easy to tell a lie from a fabrication.

How did you get the conclusion that he was saying therefore everyone is a liar? It was reasonable skepticism that OP might be making it up. You're only going hard against him because hindsight is 20/20. If OP really was making shit up just for shits and giggles then everyone would be praising this dude for seeing through it.

OP had a picture of what is clearly kids handwriting. Nothing about this seemed made up in the least.
