Sep-11-09 | | Manic: <OCF> Surely #2?
Which of the below is a lie?
1) I forgot to bring a teaching board to a chess lesson 2) I forgot to put my mouthpiece in my trombone before a performance 3) I forgot to bring tennis balls to a game of tennis |
|
Sep-11-09 | | Whitehat1963: <Manic> I'm guessing number 1 is the lie. Which is the lie?
1. We invaded Iraq because of the threat of WMD.
2. We invaded Iraq to establish a real and long-lasting democracy in the Middle East. 3. We invaded Iraq to improve George W. Bush's re-election chances. |

 | | OhioChessFan: Bonus question: Which of the 3 happened to me? |
|
Sep-11-09
 | | OhioChessFan: I'll guess 2 with <manic> and 3 with <Whitehat> |
|
Sep-12-09 | | Manic: <OCF> Guessing #3. Whichever one it was, must've hurt =/. My lie was #1. I almost forgot to bring it with me but remembered before I got on the bus and rushed back home to get it. #2 happened to me when I was in year 5 at a citizenship ceremony, though my mum saw what happened and got it to me before we started playing. I got a bit panicky to say the least when I went to play a note and found out there was nothing to blow into. #3 well lets just say we weren't thinking at the time. The guy at the club was good enough to lend my friend and I a few tennis balls. <Whitehat1963> It's got to be #2 =P. |

 | | OhioChessFan: #3 was the lie. Our starting tight end, the coach's son, stepped on a milk bottle. #2 was me. I was walking a 4-H project cow down a country road for exercise when a car spooked it. It sort of ran off the side of the road and about 30 feet along a ditch. Instead of walking back around, I walked down and across the ditch, letting out the lead strap. When I turned back to slowly guide the cow across, it was already airborne, having decided to jump across the ditch. Its front hoof landed on the front of my ankle. I couldn't walk for 3 weeks. |

 | | OhioChessFan: Job offers. Spot the lie.
1. I was offered a job as a DJ at a local radio station, though I have no training, education, or job experience in that field. 2. I was offered a job as a minister at a local church, though I have no training, education, or job experience in that field. 3. I was offered a job as a sportswriter for a local newspaper, though I have no training, education, or job experience in that field. |

 | | OhioChessFan: #3 was the lie. Per the radio station, the morning show host loved some of my jokes etc when I called in. He became the station manager, and then offered me a job on the air. I couldn't justify quitting my job for such an unstable occupation. About 2 years later, they went to almost all network programming anyway. I sort of wish I'd tried it anyway. #2, a nearby local church had a minister leave for medical reasons. A group of men from my congregation took turns preaching there once a month. After a few months, they offered me a part time position-just preaching. I didn't think I was exactly the kind of person who could be the public face of a church so I politely declined. |

Aug-01-11 | | Sho: Weird: "Lie yu" is a condiment in Japan.
It's a spicy garlic/sesame seed oil/something that comes in a 3 oz. jar--and it rocks! Man, that stuff is good. So I've two options: buy thirty jars, or find a receipe. I google Lie yu for a receipe and CG "You Lie" pops up...weird. Could make a pun-of-the-day. |

 | | OhioChessFan: Which is the lie about my Catholic Grade School days? 1. I was caught throwing rocks in church.
2. A nun caught me ogling bare breasted women in National Geographic. 3. I dropped an f bomb over the school's PA system when leading prayers. |

<though I have no training, education, or job experience in that field.> Well, it's not like its a presidency. |

1. I was caught throwing rocks in church.
2. A nun caught me ogling bare breasted women in National Geographic. 3. I dropped an f bomb over the school's PA system when leading prayers.> Well, as a former Catholic school boy, I was guilty of 1 and 2 so I'm going to say, 3. In my case 2 was particularly humiliating as it wasn't National Geographic but Playboy. I can still feel the grip of that large hand on my shoulder while the other hand snatched the magazine with its dangling centrefold from my grasp. |

 | | OhioChessFan: I was guilty of all 3 but #2 was the lie. I had a "club" that met in the coatroom and we never got caught in our geographical researches. #1, some alleged friends threw a bunch at me. I threw one back. They threw one that landed in the church aisle. I reached out to pick it up and the teacher, who was facing away from me, wheeled around and caught me. My alleged friends wanted me to take the heat for what they started and what they perpetrated about 10-1. Negatory. #3, I had gym class on Fridays right before the end of the day prayers. I stubbed my thumb badly. Each person led the prayers for a week, and on Friday showed someone else how to operate the system so they could do it the next week. There was a switch to turn on the system, and a little lever you had to hold down the entire time. I didn't flip the switch to turn on the system, but I reached for the lever to demonstrate its use, and jammed my thumb against the equipment. I blurted out an f bomb, and then looked in horror at a girl standing next to me with a shocked look on her face. She had turned the switch on, for no apparent reason, and I realized I'd broadcast that to the entire school. She and one other person learning how to operate the system decided that would be a good time to leave. Out of sheer nervousness, I suffered through uncontrollable giggles as I went through the prayers. As soon as I was done, I shut everything down and tried to run out of the office. A nun caught me and while she couldn't bring herself to accuse me of saying what I'd said, she did berate me for laughing through the prayers. |

Jan-29-15 | | norami: Which is the lie?
1. I've never had sex.
2. I've never done drugs.
3. I've never heard rock'n'roll. |
|
Jan-29-15 | | boz: Good stories, OCF. If number 3 had happened to me I'd have started running and might still be running to this day. |

Jan-29-15 | | boz: <norami: Which is the lie?
1. I've never had sex.
2. I've never done drugs.
3. I've never heard rock'n'roll.>
Hard to say because I've never heard of any of those things. |
|
Jan-29-15 | | PhilFeeley: <norami> It's gotta be #3. I don't like rock'n'roll, but it's everywhere - cars play it when the pull up beside you, restaurants play it, TV ads play it. There's no escaping it. |
|
Jan-29-15 | | norami: <PhilFeely> I was hoping no one would raise that particular point but it looks like you're more than a match for me. |
