I guess I was well-read as a teenager, because my era was the 1990s and I didn't buy into any of those myths.

I’m similar apparently, or at least liked learning. 2000s.

I was pretty unimpressed with the list, I never believed some of them (like the genome) and learned most of them were wrong by high school.
