Transcript

You were telling everyone that you were a veteran. What branch? He wasn't in it. I had a friend of mine who... Okay, you weren't in it but you were emailing the VA? No. Huh? No, I didn't. It was all just a story I had with one of my friends who was in the Army. We talked about joining in together and he was older and he had... I got a letter from saying he died in active combat. And uh... What? How does this break her trust? I'm getting there. And so I ended up using, cause he would send me letters about his updating through basic and then he would get deployed and he would let me know how he's doing. Okay and uh... I ended up taking those stories and be like, yeah, this is what we did while we were enlisted together. What? What? Whoa. No, no, you took his stories? Whoa. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. The stories that your friend sent you, you took about your service? Yeah. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's not what... Whoa. And did what with it? I didn't. That's like stolen valor shit.
