“I’m here to start a new job” “You have to go through an interview sir.” “I have a nine inch dick” “Oh you’re our new VP of operations!”

What I remember, and this was from a program with him interviewed it in, he invented the format that e-mail is in nowadays (The inbox/outbox/spam folder organization), not the network level of sending messages part. So he's kinda exaggerating, but not exactly lying. Pretty much padding a resume.

Well gee, I'm sure that folder structure would've been hard to figure out.

Wikipedia says it was another man, and Shiva is a conspiracy theorist who makes a false claim that he invented the email because he wrote a programme named "email" in high school.

Yeah because Wikipedia is totally true.

Not always trust Wikipedia, but for this case, Shiva's claim seems questionable. He was a highschool student and he invented the email? Alone? The officially recognised inventor was 18 years older than Shiva and working for ARPANET, so he was more likely the inventor.

Even if he just invented the phrase "email" then he technically did invent email
