Some stores are being mailed copies of Poop Slinger (one of the rarest PS4 games) with no prior warning.

Cakehoarder Games posted a reel on FB about this also.

He mentions that the return address on the package was that of another game store that did NOT send the copies and they have had others calling about the same thing. There are supposedly 39 packages sent out on the same date with 6 copies each, though I don't know how they got this information as they say someone spoke with the post office but I don't believe it's legal to get information about someone else's mail.

Bought this because I saw Al Borland on it, but then I remembered Al Borland is a fictional character from a show called “Home Improvement.” He is NOT Al Borland.

Mr Bones (S1E4) lives next door

We've owned this house in the Boston-Edison neighborhood of Detroit for 18 months and I just realized the retired clown living next door was fictionalized in Detroiters. I'm ashamed it took me this long to figure it out, but thrilled to finally make the connection.

Anyone know the address when Sam Richardson's family lived in BE in the 90s? I'm starting to think he was on my block, as Mr Bones was his dad's friend on the show.

False attribution in an online course I'm taking

According to Wikipedia, the first occurrence of this classic story was published in then early 1900s when Hemingway was 7. The first record of it being attributed to him was in 1989.
