I see these type of comments a lot and I have a genuine question for you because there is something I do not understand.
Why do you care?
That's not meant to be hostile or anything. Just.... what difference does it make? What is it that makes you actually have a genuine interest in the veracity of some random anecdote before you can be amused or not? Because I don't get it.
This sounds kind of bitchy, reading it back, but it's legitimately not meant to be. Read this whole thing in a tone of genuine confusion. Because like... do you enjoy stand up comedy at all? Movies? TV? Or do you only watch documentaries?
I'm so confused.
Some people genuinely seem to think that nothing ever really happens unless it’s on the news.
I would hate to have lived such a boring life to have that outlook.
They’re the beige people that just exist, meandering through life, until they don’t.

They apparently also don't understand that both true and fictional stories can be entertaining.
Hell this story is plausible and I didn't even consider whether it was true or not, it reminded me of things that have happened during my life and therefore it was funny whether it was true or not.
