Let's play a game (and at the same time learn interesting things about each other)

@Bricker

3. I was stopped by police for driving around a car that had a sign reading: “Attention car thieves: this car is already stolen.”

LIAH!

Maybe.

[Maeglin]

Why not.

1. I cut the lovely and talentedSarah Chang’s dress from her body with my Swiss Army knife in front of a half dozen people.

2. I got into a scuffle with Russell Crowe in front of a bar in Soho.

3. I used to talk to Bianca Jagger fairly regularly on the telephone.

[Bricker]

@Bricker

1. The Cruise Director on TV’s “Love Boat,” Julie McCoy (Lauren Tewes), once tried to kick me in the balls.

2. I once French-kissed my sister while blindfolded.

3. I was stopped by police for driving around a car that had a sign reading: “Attention car thieves: this car is already stolen.”

The reveal:

[spoiler]1. Absolutely true. It was after “Love Boat” was off the air. I was in a restaurant in L.A. and there was a slight fracas over my date’s coat, which Ms. Tewes thought was her coat. I took it; she aimed a kick at the family jewels. I didn’t even recognize her; she had put on some weight and it wasn’t until one of the restaurant staff told me who it was that I knew.

2. False. I don’t even have a sister.

3. True. I got the idea from a comment by Ashleigh Brilliant. College cops have no sense of humor.[/spoiler]

[marque_elf]

I’ve already revealed that #2 was true. I can provide the story if you’re interested. Anybody want to guess whether my lie was behind door #1 or door #3?

[Grey_area]

@r4nd0mNumb3rs

To make mine trickier, I’m gonna have 3 real ones and 1 fake.

1. While on a Knowledge Bowl high school trip to El Salvador, my teammates and I went across the street from the hotel we were staying in to a strip club.

2. While skydiving, I collided with a bird, fracturing 3 of my ribs.

3. A friend of mine hot-wired a moped in S. Korea we which rode together until it ran out of gas.

4. I have been caught by the Guatemalan police smoking marijuana on 3 different occasions, each time getting off scott free by the means of bribery.

OK here comes the truth…

[spoiler]

1. TRUE. Hey, we were a bunch of high school boys. We’re horny.
2. FALSE. I’ve never skydived even.
3. TRUE. Because of the nature of the ‘hot-wiring’, you can’t turn the machine off so you just have to wait til it runs out of gas.
4. TRUE. They don’t even expect that much. They offered to sell it back to us once too.
   These were all in my crazier high school days, and I do not condone any of these activities. Especially the hotwiring. [/spoiler]

@Roland Orzabal

While in Basic Military Training, I challenged a point of philosophy made by a Maj. General, to his face, in front of my TIs…and he conceded.

You were wearing blues, I bet. I don’t see anything that special about this; officers are usually pretty nice to trainees, and no TI would disrespect a Major General enough to defend a point he/she didn’t want defended.

RancidYakButterTeaParty, I call bullshit on #3. I also call Awesome Doper Name, and then I call Great Band Name.

@Pythian Habenero

Oh, and for my guess - I refuse to believe that I live in a world where people masturbate dogs and then post about it on messageboards afterwards.

Actually, you do. There was an MPSIMS or IMHO thread about that very event in 2003.

@Revenant Threshold

I would be allowed in to a internet team thing that requires fast typing to compete.

Details and/or URL please?

[bouv]

Well, since Idle Thoughts did it, I’ll post another three as well, though these will be much tamer, since my two good stories are already used up.

The following truths and a lie focus soley on my disgusting body.

1)I am male, yet can put both my my legs behind my head. However, While attemping this stunt once in college, I “unknotted” myself very rapidly, forcing my head backwards and struck it against the side of a crappy couch that had wooden armrests. I was in a radio studio at the time, and it caused a few seconds of dead air as the DJ rushed over to make sure I was alright. Him and my other friends that were there are fairly certain I had a mild concussion, though I didn’t bother going to the hospital.

2. Despite infrequent brushing and flossing as a kid, I have never had a single cavity, nor have I ever had braces, a retainer, or any other kind of treatment for my teeth other than a simple cleaning. I even lost a tooth in second grade, and the adult tooth didn’t come in until I was in sixth grade, after the teeth surronding it already grew into that space. However, my teeth naturally moved out of the way, and I didn’t need any corrective action. I also have not had any wisdom teeth removed.

3. “Cat Scratch Fever” is not just a song by Ted Nugent. It’s real, and I had it as a child. It consisted of a few weeks of having a lump and pain in my right leg, near the groin, and eventually it required a few days stay in the hospital and two surgeries to cure. I still have a two inch scar where they removed one of my lymphnodes.

[Winston_Smith]

1. In 1997, I had a “three-way” with Molly Shannon and a girlfriend of hers whos name I cannot recall.

2. In separate and unrelated incidents, I have been investigated (but never indicted) for: Arson, Murder, Carjacking, and Bank Robbery

3. I stabbed a very close friend of mine. Just for fun. More than once.

[NailBunny]

I know I’m a little behind, but the lie for me is:

I do not, in fact, have a good tooth. Or even any fillings, for that matter.

[bouv]

@Winston Smith

1. In 1997, I had a “three-way” with Molly Shannon and a girlfriend of hers whos name I cannot recall.

Falsey false.

[Skywatcher]

Like others, I’m having trouble coming up with two truths so I’m going to do three.

1. When I was in junior high, one of my brothers dangled me head first in the stairwell in our house.

2. When I was in high school, I sent a fellow student off a stairwell landing because he bumped into me.

3. I initially failed my entrance physical for the military because my ears were clogged with wax.

4. I once took the entrance exam for the Metropolitan Police in Washington, DC–even though I knew there was no way I could pass their physical.

@fetus

Nope, we were in the dorm and wearing BDUs at the time…and while my TIs didn’t say anything in front of the general, you can bet they expressed their opinions of my actions quite clearly after he left. The result of this incident caused a significant complication to the knee injury that marked the end of my illustrious military career. Of course, getting hucked down the staircase was probably the largest contributor, but that’s a whole different story.

[Yeticus_Rex]

@Yeticus Rex

1. To make my wife jealous during my friend’s wedding reception, I went up to the sluttiest dressed girl (unknown to me), asked her to dance (in front of her boyfriend), and then during the slowdance, ran my hand down her back and grabbed her butt, with my wife watching only 10 feet away.

2. While roadtripping with friends, we climbed onto a granite hilltop at Yosemite NP, dropped our drawers, bent over to make a create a photograph called “Four Moons Over Yosemite”; our three butts on the skyline with the Moon lined up as the fourth. My wife (observing) then grabbed one of my friend’s butt and swatted the other.

3. In Vegas, my wife and her friends made a deal with the guys that they would go to a dinner & show in short skirts without panties on, if us guys wore their panties instead. We then took turns guessing who’s panties we were wearing since we didn’t know (they were handed over to us in a bag). Three panties were clean, one was slightly musky. Groping ensued during the show.

Well, any takers?

Sounds like Lackland was quite a different place then! :eek:

[Larry_Borgia]

I’ll play:

1.) Just last month I annoyed Nicole Kidman.

2.) I used to photograph Soviet warships, and I was told that one of the ships I shot (A guided missile cruiser IIRC, though it could have been a destroyer) had never before been photographed by a westerner.

3.) I have four cats.

[Larry_Borgia]

Oh, and some guesses:

#1 is the lie for Winston Smith

1. In 1997, I had a “three-way” with Molly Shannon and a girlfriend of hers whos name I cannot recall.

#3 is false for Lute Skywatcher

I initially failed my entrance physical for the military because my ears were clogged with wax.

[Zoe]

I came back to set the record straight:

1. Katharine Hepburn once wrote to me.

2. I have a six-toed cat descended from one of Hemingway’s Key-West cats.

3. I had a fear of flying that lasted thirty-one years and then went away.

Two of you guessed that the lie was #3. Actually, that was true. I didn’t fly from 1973 until 2004. The phobia did go away and I had no problems flying at all. Not even nervousness before hand – just excitement.

The lie was about the Hemingway cat. I’ve always wanted one.

I’m gonna say #2 is the fib, even though it seems perfectly plausible.
Mine:

1. I was struck in the face with the butt of a shotgun wielded by a thief interested in stealing my friend’s brand new motorcycle.

2. My best friend and his girlfriend went to a train station and lay down on the tracks until a train came and ran them over.

3. I talked my way out of being arrested for possession three hours after dropping a heroic dose of LSD.

[blondebear]

1. I am on a first-name basis with a porn model/actress.
2. I once shared a joint with the lead singer of Uriah Heep.
3. I was in an airplane crash and walked away without a scratch.

[Amazon_Floozy_Goddess]

Hmmm, lesseee…

-I once ordered a coffee at Tim Hortons with a bunny puppet.
-When my rat Bettina had her babies, I tried a little rat milk just to see what it was like.
-I successfully took off, piloted, and landed a helicopter in a professional-level flight sim.
