History of YOU!

My Sister: So, what are you going to teach at your new job?
Me: Well, I can teach whatever I want.
Sister: That is cool.
Me: Yeah.
Sister: I know. Why don't you teach The History of Me? You could teach all about my life!
Me: That is a great idea.
(Sister's husband yelling in background): I would take that class!

Later

My Dad: What will you do when you get to (location of job)?
Me: I will teach. I can supposedly teach whatever I want.
Dad: You can teach about us. You can teach History of (Our Last Name).
Me: That is a great idea!
Dad: I went to the first ever drive-in movie. I also grew up right next to the first-ever cloverleaf.
Me: Wow. I could blow a whole day of class, just on that!
Dad: You could have two days of class. One on the drive-in movie, and one on the cloverleaf.
Me: You know, (Name of Sister) said that I should teach the history of her. Like, History of (Sister's Name).
Dad: Pffah. That would be too boring.

Am I the only one who suspects that your dad is lying about a few things? Or insanely old?

Lying about what? He's just old.
