I hear it's the victors that decide what history is. Thus, by making up history, I am a victor.

Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

Hmm… I think that’s related, but not quite what we’re looking for here. Maybe this one would work better.
according to the history I just made up, I did already
Hi Victor, I’m dad
Is this a variation on l'esprit de l'escalier, where instead of the perfect comeback you simply make up a set of events after the fact that put you in the best light? 🤔
To the victor goes the spoils! Well I supposed I do smell quite spoiled, don't I?
If A then B =/= If B then A
2-3=3-2
If it rains, the ground gets wet. (If A, then B.)
If the ground is wet, it won’t cause clouds to start raining.
If the ground is wet, it may have been caused by a recent rain, but there are other possible causes too.
What's your vector, Victor?
