When somebody tells you something, sometimes it's something they personally experienced and sometimes it's something they heard from somebody else. How do you tell the difference?

I’ve turned a “my friend” story into my story on the Internet. It’s just easier than adding “my friend’s” in front of every other word. It doesn’t change the point or value of the story, and for all you Internet strangers know, it could be him posting his own experience.
