If this isn't real, I'd guess you're remembering the XKCD linked in a sibling comment to yours. I kinda like your version more. The XKCD version where the poster has an actual moment of introspective clarity doesn't make sense to my cynical mind.

If it is me misremembering fiction as fact, it wouldn't be the first time…

(Even if I do have a strong memory that this was in addition to the XKCD).
