Name THREE things about yourself and one not true. Let me guess which one's not true.
I've had numerous surgeries to correct a limp caused by being born with one leg which is significantly shorter than the other.
When I was six years old, a photographer used pictures of my brother and I as samples to advertise his work on television.
I played on the boys basketball team in eighth grade, but I was so bad that I rode the end of the bench on a team which only won one game all year (against a team that started a girl because one of their players broke his arm).
When I was in college, I sang in the concert choir. We toured and performed in several countries throughout Asia and Europe.
Nope. Try again.
I paraded a pig in mid-town Philadelphia as an alternative to Mayor Rizzo.
I had tickets to Woodstock but got grounded because I took off a few weeks before to catch the Atlantic City Rock Fest.
I met Red Skelton in a little Mom & Pop Italian restaraunt in Phoenix.
I have been named the Sexiest Man Alive by People Magazine 4 years in a row, but they won't picture me because they're afraid I'll give Brad Pitt a complex.
I learnt to build mongolian tents in the Italian mountains.
I was escorted back to my hotel in the 1980's by the Bulgaria equivalent of the Red Guard whilst drunkenly extolling the virtues of Lenin and Trotsky.
I was an altar boy in my youth.
I was 'forgotten' by my tour guides on a group tourist trip to the gobi desert and spent the night in the desert on my own til they picked me up the next day. It was the most terrifying experience of my life. They simulatanously were profusly apologetic and found it hilarious.
Did you have warm clothes in the desert?
@FrayedBear is that your guess?
@SimonCyrene They are usually very cold at night compared to daytime temperatures. I don't know about the Gobi but we often have 30-40°C variances.
My favorite color is orange.
I have a fear of Muppets.
I used to study astrology.
If you were a fan of orange before, the Cheeto in Charge would have soured you on it by now!
@Redcupcoffee Yep! You win.
You & Kermit are buds, so, you seem to be of the "pale" variety, I pick #4!
@Redcupcoffee
#4 is wrong
@phxbillcee
No cute Kermit for me.
I’m just here for the comments
I’m sure 4 is greater than 3
Reading comprehension is overrated
I’m getting coffee
I can speak french
I can walk on my hands
I drive a Vespa
I had long hair when I was a teen
Nobody would admit to driving a Vespa (tho my Dad had one for a time)
@Redcupcoffee Wrongspa
@Redcupcoffee Very good.... at least that's the only one not certifiably 100% true. She and I share the same last name (dif spelling) but I don't see her on my tiny fam tree.
I once drove over 50,000 miles, through 33 U.S. states, in ten months.
I once broke my leg dancing the tango because my partner didn't know how to follow.
I once ritualistically "killed" a couple of hundred people in an open-air ceremony, then we all hugged each other at once.
You would never take sole credit for something, so its the hug one!
@idlopalev You may be right. He did say "ritual" & that can mean anything!
The post asked for THREE items, not four.
Picky, picky...depends on how one reads it ...Name three things about yourself AND one not true. To guarantee just 3, maybe, Name 3 things with one of them not being true.
Akkk! Maybe I can't read, ha ha!?
1.) I've delivered over 300 baby animals.
2.) Forrest Gump is my favorite movie.
3.) I've been on national television.
What have you got against Tom Hanks?!?
#2
The answer is #2.
Not down with the FG.
1.I recorded two records, one in three languages, in the 1960-70s.
2.I had a top tune hit on the top Port-au-Prince hit radio station in 1970 for three months
3.I sang my first live solo on Haiti radio when I was four and a half years old.
@Redcupcoffee Nope
I can't sing. I can dance , I'm not good at lying.
2 left feet, eh?
@phxbillcee NO. ?
@Sticks48 You're a drummer that can sing!
@phxbillcee Not a note. ?
Ah, you made sure to say "nominated"! Gotta be #2, 'cause you can't be related to a ship!!! LOL
@BearsNPenn #1, final answer.
@phxbillcee Nope. I can absolutely tie a knot in a cherry stem using my tongue. ?
You're not a "Michael" fan! tho #3 seems most unlikely, I bet that is true & so damn cool!
oh please. that part is certainly true. he was high as a kite. The lie was part of 4 - seeing the Femmes at the Bowery THREE times. Every Okie punk of the 80's knows they were only at the Bowery twice.
sink like a stone do you? All sorcerors do!
@Redcupcoffee Good guess, but @phxbillcee nailed it....
I can solve a Rubiks cube.
I once stood on Peter O'Toole's toe.
I've slept in more than one graveyard.
I once designed a solar sailed space probe.
Nobody can solve Rubik's Cube! It's all trick camrea work!!!
@Donotbelieve ha ha.
@Donotbelieve also, I can’t dance unless I’m really really ridiculously drunk and then I’m obviously the best dancer in the world. Although I could literally count my dancing embarrassments on one hand. In over 50 years! Lol
@Redcupcoffee #3 was true. 1983, Ronald Reagon.
I have met people who claimed to be me
I can't swim
I have dated three ex spies
I will reveal, I was about to say, but then thought I should let @Redcupcoffee give it a try. If I ran this past people who know me they are sure to get it wrong. In fact I think I will toss it up on FB and see what happens.
OK I put this to FB, my son hasn't seen it, my daughter got it right off, I haven't confirmed and no-one agrees with her so far. This is more interesting than I thought.
@Redcupcoffee Actually number 1 is true, it has happened on 3 occasions, I keep a low profile but had some successes years ago and in a small region they would come up in discussion. I have been in meetings and people have claimed they were me. I found another on the internet about 3 years ago, I tracked him down, I had never heard of him, met him or anything. Weird.
I have surfed all my life, was a distance swimmer but 6 weeks ago I tore both my rotator cuffs, I can hardly move my arms, so I cannot swim.
So the reality is that I have only dated 2 ex spies.
ON FB my daughter called it, no-one else could.She has met the 2 ladies concerned and couldn't place a 3rd.
I am brunette
I don't like most Italian food
I have never eaten rattlesnake
I was once being groomed to lead a gang
Was sitting in a breakwall in Kenya.
Ate blut a duck egg boiled and barreid.
Have been married.
I have wrestled an alligator and won.
@Redcupcoffee I Was sitting on a break wall in Kenya a woman called me a rotten tomato because I would not go with her. When I was younger was drunk enough on a couple of occasions to eat blut. I have never been married. I did wrestle an alligator was a guy named alligator though.
