It's not that strange, kalbahamut. I was born knowing several words, including rochambeau, applesauce, masonry, purple, flaxen, hoary, codswallop, and the.
Seriously, people, he didn't ask WHERE you got it, he asked IF you got it from Percy Jackson, which I halfway did, so technically, I am the only one who even belongs on this list.
Perhaps, but the point is that he wanted to know who got it from Percy Jackson. He very well knew that it can be known from other places, but he wanted to know how many people got it where he did. There is no folly in his reasoning. There is, however, in yours.
