    Wait, there are people that really do that and aren’t just being facetious? Or have dementia?

      I have a friend who is about 7 years older than me and she grew up with a lot of the same pop culture stuff I grew up with. She’s a teacher, university educated and close to retirement … bright lady who has been in the education system for elementary schools for decades.

      But in the all the time I’ve known her for the past almost 30 years … she still confuses Star Wars and Star Trek. I have a feeling it’s just to push my buttons because she’ll confuse something about it all and then laugh it off as it none of it really matters to anyone.
