Spot the Lie!

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

Are you a good liar? Can you tell when someone is lying? Prove it! Play “Spot the Lie!”

(This may be hard for some Dopers to play since some of you tell us everything!)

Three of these things belong together. Three of these things are kinda the same. But one of these things just doesn’t belong here. Now it’s time to play our game. It’s time to play our game.

One of the statements below is a damned, dirty, stinking lie. Can you pick which one?

  1. My favorite show is Magnum, p.i.
  2. I have never owned a dog that didn’t outweigh me.
  3. My hero is Nelson Mandela.
  4. I am an anarchist.
2

#4

3

I’ll take #2.

4

Can I buy a vowel?

5

I’ll 2nd the #4 - only cuz I’ve never met an anarchist goddess. Jewish Princesses: Plenty. Drag Queens: Too often.

If my hunch is wrong & you truly are an anarchist, perhaps you could recommend a good ambrosia recipe from the Anarchist’s cookbook - my library doesn’t have it available.

6

$10,000 in unmarked bills gets you an “e.” Anything else is double.
(Or, if you don’t want to pay quite so much, you can see if you can trick Dopers with your own slight misrepresentation.)

7

That better be a damn good O…

8

Damn. Old McDonald would go broke at your rates-that’s $80 large. :eek:

::Shaking SDMB magic 8-ball:: Answer is fuzzy-ask again later. So, I’ll choose:

  1. Fuzzy
9

I hope it’s #1! :eek:

10

#2, right?

Do me! Do me! (That’s not what I mean, gutterbrain!)

  1. I am a professional musician.
  2. I date men.
  3. My cat is trained to perform tricks like “beg” and “speak”.
  4. I have dined with Oscar winners.
11

#2?

12

#2, if IRC about sniffs_markers (is that right? – I loved both of your screen names). Oh, I hope I’m at least not too far off.

13

I believe #2 is the lie.

Lemme try

  1. I am a vegetarian
  2. I have not had sex for 10 years
  3. I am right handed
  4. I once voted for Reagan
14

MWAH-ha-ha-ha-ha! I fooled you! I fooled you all! I knew you’d jump over that red herring! Mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha!

(Yes, my ex Sniffs_Markers is female. And I am dating a woman presently, Chews_Pencils. But actually I am bi, and do date men and have contributed to assorted “bi threads”.)

15

Coulda sworn your son wasn’t yet ten years old, so I’ll go for #2.

16

#3?

I’ll give it a go:

  1. Once hit a parked car in a parking lot and ran.
  2. Had sex with a friend’s wife
  3. Have a collection of model cars
  4. Played a toothbrush in a primary school play
17

I’ll guess number 2 is your lie.

18

Nope, I’m saying #4 only because I vaguely recall disparaging remarks about Reagan.

19

Damn, damn, damn. Which one was the lie then? Or do we wait for someone else to come along and guess right? BTW, Chews_Pencils

Should I do the four list thing to? Ah well, what the hell. Here goes nothing…

[ol]
[li]I’ve shaved my head. Twice.[/li][li]I got married on a softball field, at home plate, during a co-ed tournament.[/li][li]I love coffee, refied beans and cigarettes. Not necessarily in that order.[/li][li]I was a fundamentalist Christian at the age 13, which led to me not losing my virginity until I was 24.[/li][/ol]

Hmmm. Maybe this won’t be that difficult after all. :stuck_out_tongue:

As for vanilla, I’m putting my money on #1. But shoot if I wasn’t tempted to guess that you’re really left handed.

Wait, wait! What’s the score?

  1. jsgoddess - as yet not known
  2. Eats_Crayons - Ha, ha, ha, you fell for the lie!
  3. vanilla - ?
  4. Mr. Blue Sky - not enough guesses yet
