2 Truths and a Lie 🀠


Make 3 statements about yourself. Two must be true, one is a lie. The object is for players to guess which one is the lie. Hint: Try to make your lie believable, i.e. Don't say "I've been to the moon," since obviously that's not true. Also, vary the order - don't always put the lie last, or first, etc. Anyone who guesses wrong takes a drink.

1. Spring is my favorite season. - true
2. I never answer calls from unknown callers. - lie; no caller ID on my landline
3. I have three children, each born in a different state. - true; 1 in AZ, 1 in FL, and 1 in MN

3. I am a certified scuba diver.

Good luck!

reply

They're all lies ! πŸ˜†

reply


Now you're just being mean, db. And you are incorrect, sir.

Hey, let's bury the hatchet (not in each other's heads) and be friends, or at least co-exist peacefully. How bout it?


😎

reply

No, I'm being ornery and playful. You can't say you didn't open yourself up to that.

I happen to know some things about martial arts because I first began to study karate on Okinawa (which btw, was where the discipline originated ) as a teenager. Later, in my 20s, I had a black belt personal instructor in Taekwondoe, so I know about that.

So, for the sake of playing the game, I say#1 is the lie.

reply


Nope. Number 1 is true! Guess again, db.


😎

reply

number 3 is a lie

reply

This is really interesting because it was his first claim on IMDb I became suspicious of. And why hasn't he responded to this game which he started three hours ago ?

reply


Sorry for the delay, db. I was watching an episode of Sherlock. It's really good, you should check it out.


😎

reply


Oh yeah, and number 2 is true also. I lied about one being a lie. Is that kind of like telling the truth?


😎

reply

You tell me. You're the accomplished liar but not foolproof. And I'm not going to bring your pants into the dispute.

reply


Yeah in kind of a twisted way. BTW, they were all true. I lied about one being a lie.


😎

reply

Now we're back to square one. I don't believe any of them.

reply


Believe what you will, but they are all true.

1. I earned the karate belt in my youth in the 70s.
2. I took the Ultralight Lessons in 2015.
3. I received my scuba certificate in the 80s.


😎

reply


Oh wow! You have a great memory, db! I had forgotten that.


😎

reply

Aren't you just chomping at the bit, trying to figure out who I was on IMDb ? 😈

reply


No.


😎

reply

Liar, once again. πŸ˜†

reply


Nope. Don't care. Sorry.


😎

reply

Sure ! Standard response when you're cornered.

reply


Would you prefer a non standard response?

Okay:

YES GOD PLEASE TELL ME WHO YOU WERE ON IMDB!!! I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT THIS INFORMATION!! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Was that better?


😎

reply


Nope, number 3 is the truth. They're all true.


😎

reply


Okay here is another one:

1. I leave for a tour of Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand next month.
2. I have taken Ultralight flying lessons.
3. I have visited Mexico City.


😎

reply

number 3 is false

reply


Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Excellent, hownos!


😎

reply

#2 is the lie.

reply


Nope. No. 3 is the lie. Hownos just got it. He's a clever blighter!


😎

reply

Cheers! Time for a refill.

reply


Right! A vodka martini (Stoli of course!), shaken, not stirred.


😎

reply


Okay, here's another one:

1. I have seen every film which received the Oscar for Best Picture
2. I am related to Johann Van Oldenbarnevelt (1547 - 1619), a prominent Dutch Statesman.
3. I have written two books.


😎

reply

2 is a lie

reply


No, that is true. Oldenbarnevelt played an important role in the Dutch struggle for independence from Spain. He was also one of the founders of the Dutch East India Company.

He was arrested and tried in 1619. It was a kangaroo court. He was beheaded on May 13, 1619 in the Binnenhof (the seat of the Dutch government) in Den Haag. His last words to the executioner were "Make it short. Make it short."

Later, realizing the tragic mistake, the Dutch placed a memorial plaque on the wall barely 50 yards from where he was executed. They also erected a statue outside the Binnenhof, across the canal. I also visited a museum in Mumbai, India in 2015 which featured a painting of him in one of the galleries.

I'm related to him on my father's side. He is my most famous relative. When I was in the Netherlands in 2014 I visited the Binnenhof where he was executed. I also visited his childhood home in Amersfoort.

Any more guesses??

Interesting because they are such cute puppies.And an insight - only for you - i caught him on tape when he cheated his wife.

The least you could do is quit watching the tape.

2.i love kittens
3.i drink milk

reply

I hope #1 is a lie. You can't be done yet.

reply

I hope you have a glass available,time to drinkπŸ˜‰

reply

I had a feeling this was coming so I poured another.

Seriously, how many lessons did you have?

reply

10 lessons,2 hours duration each

reply

That didn't take long. Did you drive every day?

reply

After work,not in the week - end.

number 3 is a lie - you said juice only

Are you sure?

reply

Actually, no, not anymore.

reply

You're not sure of anything anymore, are you? Because...you know... πŸ₯‚πŸ·πŸΉπŸΈπŸ»πŸΊ

reply

Another side effect.Take a break from booze.

reply

You live on a farm and you don't drink milk?

reply

Yeah i know it's weird.During lunch,i drink only natural juice.But sometimes after - how to say it - i collect the milk from our cows,i like to drink it raw.

reply

I hope you boil it

reply

When we make cheese,yes.

reply

I drank raw cow's and goat's milk as a kid but my mother boiled it just so slightly. You don't want ecoli

reply

You know,it bs.All the time since i was a kid,my parents gave me to drink raw milk and i'm still healthy.Why in the old times our parents eat and drink all kind of products and didn't got sick and now all the young generation are getting ill very quickly?

reply

It's probably okay to drink raw milk if it's your own. You know whether it's been properly handled. Otherwise you're trusting that the people who sell it know what they're doing. Some people take shortcuts.

reply

I know this very well.

reply

1. I lived on Oahu when the original Hawaii 5O premiered.
2. I was the captain of my high school wrestling team
3. I hitch hiked half way across the country as a teen with very little money in my pocket.

reply

2 is a lie.

reply

My Hall of Fame detective nailed me again! You spook me the way Mina does you .

reply

I've got nothing on you.

Number 2 just seemed too normal compared to the other ones.

reply

I'm just not a good liar. Maybe a good thing?

reply

It is a good thing.
I'm the same way. I'm a horrible liar.
At least I know I'll never be a politician. This is a good thing.

reply

1. I've been to over 400 concerts
2. I love to cook
3. I love to go to dance clubs

reply


No. 2 is the lie.


😎

reply

Sorry you lose. Drink.

reply


Curses! Foiled again!


😎

reply

#1 is the lie.

reply

Number 1 is a fact.
Drink up.
Careful you don't spill.

reply

I won't spill, but I might dribble a little.

reply

That's because you're a pro.

reply

Pros dribble, don't they? People like Karl-Anthony Towns and LeBron James?

I know, it's a groaner, but it's been a long day.

reply

That was actually pretty good.
I had to look up Karl.

Yes, it has been a long day.
Long weekend in fact and it's not even over yet.

reply

I know. Do you plan to be here tomorrow?

reply

I'll try to be.
Probably not as much or as late as the last couple days.

reply

Same here. I'll pop in for a while, but not all day. I think I'm just about done for today, too. 32 hours is enough.

reply

It's been fun but tiring.
I need a few days to dry out.

You've been a trooper. I think you may have
been here more than anybody.
I can't give you a gold star but how about a drink?

reply

I'm guessing #3 as the lie because of your posting history.

And besides, why would you desire dance clubs when you've got Stratego and her basement?

reply

I tried to keep it with things that I've posted in the past.

Once again you pay attention.
Nice job.

reply

#3 bullshit
We are two peas in the same pod

reply

It is and we are.

db beat you to the punch though.
Enjoy your drink.

reply

Dang
I will for sure

reply

Now I feel bad.
So I had drink for you.
That's just the kind of guy I am.

reply

Thanks!

Ive been pressing all weekend to win a game but i seem to be lousy at all of these games...

Lovely weekend though

And im still in it to win it!

reply

It didn't go down exactly how I pictured but
it was fun.

I think we all won this weekend.
Except maybe the people who actually wanted to
talk about movies and stuff.

reply

Oh this was a win
You lit the match!
We still have time to run with the ball
Im gonna grab a post by the neck and have a go on it
Apologies if its your post but im locked and loaded bud

reply

What's mine is ours.

"Amidst the mists and fiercest frosts, With barest wrists, and stoutest boasts, He thrusts his fists against the posts, And still insists he sees the ghosts."

reply

You ready​ to try your comic book board challenge?

reply

Naw, dewey.....I've been avoiding that punch all week end.
