NO! Me and my partner started watching X-Files, in a mostly random order. Seriously in like season fucking 7 she's like "I don't buy this mumbo jumbo super natural crap Mulder, even though we encountered something very similar to this like a week ago!"
Like Jesus girl you're not a skeptic, you're just contrarian.

I've been posting about it as my partner and I are watching the whole series in order. I have a working theory that every modern conspiracy theory that a boomer thinks of is just a misremembered episode of the X-Files distorted by their growing dementia.
A fun game to play is watching the difference in trigger discipline between Mulder and Scully.
I like tallying up how many times they all get knocked unconscious or hospitalized. If anyone sustained as many injuries as they do they'd have the bodies of 90 year olds lol!

It started with the 3rd season episode Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose, and continues with the 6th season episode Monday.
Scully asks Clyde, a psychic who knows how people will die, how she will die. He says, "You don't."
In "Monday", Scully is doing a groundhog-day loop where she and Mulder die in a bombing. The fan theory is that the day will repeat itself indefinitely until circumstances allow for her survival because the universe will not let her die.
Skinner is also her side piece.
