I believe you could speak Klingon and Elvish, but it is difficult to determine whether the broken bone count is off or the lightning strike is false. I am guessing three is your lie.

Your deductions may or may not be accurate...

Level 6
  1. I sold guns for a living for several years.
  2. I have two pet rats.
  3. I published an underground newspaper at my university.

All could be true... I'm going with 1.

@Alimacbean all could be true, but there is a lie. I did sell guns, though 😉

I don't believe the rats.

I'm going with pet rats

@exilesky Correct. I quite like rats, but my schedule makes it hard to give them the attention they need. My lizards are far more self-sufficient.

Level 7

1, I met and had a conversation with Henry KIssinger
2. I have a famous grandparent
3. I was attacked and badly injured by a dog.

Hmmm... I'm going with 3.

I think 1. is a lie.

I hope #3 is a lie ! The other two are really cool!

I think #3 is a lie

You're lying about the bones. The lightning sounds like a lie but probably a trap.

  1. I spent a week in the hospital for an infected tooth.
  2. I played Single A minor league baseball.
  3. I never broke a bone.

I'm going with baseball.

If 2 is true than 3 is a lie.

No broken bones is a lie

#1 is a lie?

It was Baseball. I seriously never broke a bone that I'm aware of. Maybe a jammed finger or facture but nothing diagnosed.

@birdingnut nope. Got a bad infection that took a lot of aggressive antibiotics five work days to finally take care of. That was crazy.

I was lying about the bones!

@Alimacbean But lightning... wow!

@KevinMR It hit the house , went through the electrical, then hit me.

@Alimacbean That's crazy! Just when you think you're safe indoors... it's like WTF was that?!?! At least you survived relatively unscathed, I assume.

@KevinMR Yup, just a darn good story!

@Alimacbean indeed!

Two explains 3. Saying 1 is a lie.

I like your logic. 🙂

I don't think you got struck by lightning.

  1. I married a transgendered person and had a transgendered child.
  2. I was a lifeguard until someone drowned on my watch.
  3. I got a quote last week to cut down a tree in my back yard - for 7 grand.

The lifeguard thing is a lie!!

@Fibonacci1618 You are correct.

I think 3 is a truth. Not sure about the others but I’ve had ridiculous quotes for tree service myself

#2 is a lie?

@birdingnut Correct.

I know the tree is highly probable. Sounds like a sensible quote.

Lightning is true!

The lighting is a lie!

I won the Junior Olympic Boxing Nationals

hit by lightning is the lie.

mine is

  1. I've stalked multiple celebrities in large cities with minimal information and found them successfully
  2. I have all my adult teeth and no baby teeth
  3. I joined a street gang at 18 and was being groomed to be the leader

This is a hard one. Just knowing through some of your posts and replies I can see you doing all three and I mean that in a kick ass person kind of way.
I eliminate #2 due to your age and I am going to toss a coin and come up with # 3 is the lie. 😀

@patchoullijulie lol hmmmm i will wait for a few guesses before I reveal it lol

#3 my guess ?

#3 is a lie!

@Spongebob @fibonacci1618 @patchoullijulie

Incorrect. #3 is true.

@LadyAlyxandrea I was a gang ster back in 1952 also! Not literally 1952, but yes me too! Great growth !

I have been indirectly hit by lightning. Hit the house, came through the electrical, and hit me.

I think 1 is a lie.

  1. I partied with Bon Scott of AC/DC.
  2. I drive a hippie themed 1969 volkswagen bus
  3. I hate weed.

3 is a lie

@HeraTera lol As much as I wish it were true, #2 is the lie. 😀

@patchoullijulie aww, the vw bus would be cool ?

@HeraTera I know right? One day maybe. 😀

I think #3 is a lie. Nobody hates weed.

@birdingnut ? Nah...fraid it's true. I am one of those rare birds that doesn't drink, do drugs or smoke weed. I know, I know..........😕

@patchoullijulie it is okay; we all have our quirks. My second son is an athletic freek. College prof in math, still plays soccer, pro tennis, and a mix of martial arts and gymnastics.

@Beowulfsfriend Hey...I don't consider my choices to be quirks! 😀

Lightning is not a lie!

@Alimacbean Oh wow! Your one of 'those' people. How scary was that?

@patchoullijulie It hit the house, went though the electrical, hit me. Mildly shocking, to say the least!

Level 7

I don’t think you’ve been hit by lightning.

  1. I scored a winning touchdown in college football
  2. I stitched up wounds in a hospital emergency room when I was 16.
  3. I participated as a contestant in the league of legends championships in Boston MA

#2 is a lie?

@birdingnut I actually did sew wounds, even delivered babies when I was 16 in a hospital in the Dominican Republic

Lightning is not a lie. 🙂

@Alimacbean then it's the broken bones?

@HeraTera Yup! Never broken a bone.

  1. I met Tom Robbins and while he was signing a copy of Still Life with Woodpecker I puked on his shoes.
  2. I attended 6 years of Catholic School which is where I learned all my vices that haunt me to this day.
  3. I was medically disharged from the army and part of the story is I was wearing a skirt.

#3 is a lie?

#1 seems the least specific, so that's the lie

#1is the winner

Level 8

  1. I had a hit song on a top ten radio station in 1970.

  2. I stayed in Perth, Australia for two weeks in 2005.

  3. In the 1960s, when I was a teenager, I used to race my Akhal Teke mare and beat everyone.

#1 is your lie, I guess ?

@Spongebob NOPE. It was a top ten radio station in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and stayed top hit for about two months.

@birdingnut wow! Awesome! May we listen to it?

@Spongebob I doubt it! It was a song from a long-play 48 record-not used in the US, destined for the South American market, and the song was in Spanish. I had a cassette copy made back in the late 1990s, but that is obsolete now also.

@Katastrophe69 No..I only brought a suitcase of essentials when I moved to Thailand in 2010. I suppose someone in my family has cassettes of the album, but not sure. I'm not talking to most of them since they began bragging on being Trump supporters.

@Katastrophe69 I'm sure the cassettes are in my family somewhere, but I'm in Thailand at the moment so I'll have to wait.

Well, nobody guessed it..the lie is #2. I did visit in Australia in 2005, but I went on a camel trek near Coober Pedy, and visited other islands and cities, but never made it to Perth, although it's on my bucket list.

I raced La Brujah, my Akhal Teke mare, against all comers when I lived on our Haiti mission near Cap Haitian as a teenager, and she could beat anyone.

She could cruise at 30 mph, fast as a race horse. I never used a bridle or saddle on her, which about gave me whiplash whenever she took off in a sprint.

I had to grab her mane to keep from being thrown backward from the force. She had a colt with my stallion, a buckskin who could do a broken pace at 15 mph for miles as I commuted between our mission property and the city.

@birdingnut I was going to say Perth is a lie but given your proximity I thought it completely feasible. Honestly the camel trek at Coober was probably way more exciting.

@patchoullijulie Yup!

Pic is of me getting a kiss from Sir Wobbles, the biggest camel in the string, and the one my ex is riding. I was riding the smallest camel.

The owner of the trek lets guests each have a camel to feed, groom, saddle, and take care of during the trek. My camel was abused before he bought her and was afraid of men, so I was the one who could handle her.

@birdingnut Oh wow. Very cool. Did you get to venture into any of the Coober Pedy underground dwellings?

@patchoullijulie Yes, my ex and I rented an underground hotel room for the night. It was very cool and nice down there.

@birdingnut That is so cool. I am headed back that way soon so I might put Coober Pedy on my list of places to visit.

  1. I co-hosted a weekly show dedicated to action movies on an illegal pirate radio station

  3. I got my 5 year old son to flip off George W Bush to his face

pirate radio was the shit! The kids these days don't know what they are missing.

Jr. Roller derby is a lie

Lightning was not a lie. ?

@Alimacbean ?

@OlderMusicGeek, @Fibonacci1618 it was #3

@weelittleone I actually had to escort him around during a media summit I put together when I was with an Americorps program

@Fibonacci1618 was he president yet?

@OlderMusicGeek me too !! Haha !

@OlderMusicGeek, @weelittleone he was not. It was a Texas Summit. It was when he was Governor. The coolest part about it was that I also got to escort General Collin Powell

Level 9

I climbed My Fuji.
I was in a ship collision.
I helped deliver my first born on the way to the hospital.

A ship collision

@Katastrophe69 no. One of my life's best trips.

@Katastrophe69 nope. 1979, onboard a carrier and we split open an oil tanker. Close to six million gallons of crude oil spilled near Singapore. Didn't make national headlines, but Johnny Carson joked about us.

@Katastrophe69 we made Carson again , about a year later: we bombed some rich guy's backyard in Southern California

@Beowulfsfriend I was on board the Abraham Lincoln when it collided during an unrep-had never heard the collision alarm and just knew it signified something ‘special’!

@Beowulfsfriend I absolutely loved climbing Mt Fuji!! Did it in 96. Japan was my favorite country to live in!

@OlderMusicGeek no the hike up Fuji

I have insulted an Emmy-winning director and stood up a famous director who came to meet me

I am an accomplished cricket player

I have three passports, a couple of visas, and you don't even know my real name

Im going to go with #2 is the lie. If your an Australian male the chances are you have played cricket but the question is are you an accomplished player.?
#1 I could see an Aussie male doing that.....it's part of the culture 'tall poppy syndrome'
and #3 is not a lie because we don't know your real name.

@patchoullijulie You're not wrong, accomplishments are definitely subjective 😉 I think I have done ok for myself there, though.

Although I only have two passports. But no comment on the lyrics?

@Ozman Ha.. dag nab it...I thought I had it all worked out. Guess I'm not as clever as I thought. Oh well. 😀

1 - I had an idea when I was 17 that I later worked on in a DARPA contract.

2 - I've released 3 music albums in my life.

3 - My first language was German.

Not 3, but maybe less or more.

@Alimacbean yes ma'am! Even though I have German heritage, I try to hide my mid-Atlantic dialect...

Sorry I'm not playing the game, but I can't resist offering "the liar's paradox" here--a version of which was given by Plato and also commanded the attention of 20th century mathematicians. The paradox (if I have stated it correctly!) is that Sentence #2 is true if and only if it is false, and the same is the case for Sentence #3.

  1. Two plus two is four.
  2. Sentence #3 below is true.
  3. Sentence #2 above is false.
