That one guy at the diner who laid out the JFK theory like it was a movie script
I was sitting at this old diner in Scranton, the kind with sticky floors and coffee that's been sitting too long, and this retired mechanic just starts talking to me about the JFK files. He pulled out a napkin and drew a whole line of sight diagram showing Dealey Plaza from his memory, not even looking at his phone. He said 'the magic bullet ain't magic if you count the frames they cut from the Zapruder film.' That stuck with me because he wasn't shouting or selling anything, just talking quiet like it was obvious. I asked him how he knew all that and he said he spent 15 years reading declassified stuff after his shift ended. It made me rethink how many people have spent real time on this stuff without ever posting online. Has anyone else met someone who just casually knew way too much about a single conspiracy?

Wait, did he mention anything about the throat wound being an exit wound?

Sat down with my coffee ready to ignore some crazy guy, but he hooked me before I took my first sip. I used to think the whole thing was just a joke, something people repeated because they saw it in a movie. But when he showed me the timeline of shots and the limo stopping on the napkin, I realized I never actually looked at the evidence myself. He kept saying "just follow the chain of command for the autopsy photos and it falls apart." Now I spend too much time on forums comparing old FBI reports and I hate that I can't just enjoy a stupid burger without analyzing the acoustics of the parking lot. That guy ruined my casual diner trips forever.
