#2 sounds like the only one you’d make up.
Los mios:
I’m going to play :
I was a very well behaved teen. As a result :
1)I never got drunk before 18
2)I never cheated during school tests before 18
3)I never had sex before 18
4)I never stole anything before 18
I do have 10 fingers. Thank God. But the others are entirely true. Even the Bill Clinton one. 
I have never voted Liberal; in my first federal election in November 2000, I voted New Democrat by voting for myself.
As for the rest, yes, I was born exactly 15 years to the day after the inauguration of the Montreal Metro, of parents who met on the #80 Av. du Parc bus; I was also born 915 years after the Battle of Hastings, and 399 years after a date which due to the intervention of Pope Gregory XIII did not take place.
I did indeed have two of my DTWOF books autographed by Alison Bechdel in (I believe) 1999, when she visited the late, lamented L’Androgyne Books: Unnatural Dykes to Watch Out For and Hot, Throbbing Dykes To Watch Out For. As I was running the glbtqwxyz group at my cegep, she signed them “Keep up the good work!”
Finally, my mom worked in Iqaluit for her rural residency (when it was still called Frobisher Bay, Northwest Territories); and my dad worked there covering the festivities around the creation of Nunavut in 1999.
Well, matt, I was wrong about you! You fooled me!
I’m going to guess #2. Just because.
Here’s another list from me:
Yep, faithfool. You caught me lying again. I can cuss in Indonesian.
Don’t use animal names in cussing. It’s very insulting. ‘Bangsat’ = bastrd, ‘Tai’ = sht. ‘Kurang ajar’ = a dumb person. Pookie ajam = a chicken…ahem. Lessons over. * hehehehe at the sun shield.
So, Yosemite, sorry. I actually can’t stand people touching my navel. Eek.
Tripler, I’ll go with #3) I’m so paranoid about timekeeping, I make sure all the clocks in my apartment are all synchronized.?
** Sample_the_Dog**, #1. Roy Disney, Jr. fired me the first time we met.? Maybe he hired you?
clairobscur, #1)I never got drunk before 18?
[matt_mcl, That’s so cool about the Alison Bechdel books. 
]
yosemite, I’m guessing #2. I have had purple, green, and blue hair.? Though I kinda like it.
Number 3??
yosemite - I’m guessing, from your new list that you actually didn’t get to see any of Blade Runner being filmed. (4)
vanilla - here I’m going to go with having eaten 10 bananas at once. (3) And if I’m wrong, I’d love to know why you chose to do that…
clairobscur - I’m going to guess you did steal something before you were 18. (4) Yeah, I’m a pessimist. BTW, do you mean to imply you’ve done all those things now that you’re past 18? 
Sample_the_Dog - I’m guessing that you don’t often work for the government. (3)
Tripler - I’m hoping you had nothing to do with Episode II. (5)
Waverly - I’m going to go out on a limb and guess you’ve not rode up the PCH from San Diego to San Francisco - but I’d imagine you plan to do it.
My list -
[ol]
[li]I have an lifetime radiation dose.[/li][li]I am a mental health provider.[/li][li]I have climbed to the top of the Statue of Liberty.[/li][li]I was not allowed to sing at home, while growing up, unless I was mowing the lawn. [/li][/ol]
Penthouse forum or not, everything was true except riding up the PCH on a motorcycle. I’d rather do it in a convertible. OtakuLoki, good guess.
Lesse… I believe yosemite has experimented with hair colors, but not all of those listed.
Vanilla would speak up for the kitten. Which makes the 10 bananas and first kiss facts odd, but true.
clairobscur avoided sex, booze, and rock and roll until after 18, but couldn’t help a bit of cheating on a pop quiz.
Sample_the_Dog, I believe that was Harlan Ellison who was fired by Disney, not you.

I’m going to guess (hope!) that the lie is #1. Going on Silkwood on us, Otaku?
Can I do another list?
[ol][li]I sing soprano in a vocal ensemble[/li][li]I’m short - 5’0"[/li][li]I share a birthday (to the day) with the bassist for my favorite band (and I’m not embarrassed about knowing this fact, either)[/li]I take 26 vitamin/mineral/nutritional supplement pills daily[/ol]
Guilty.
OtakuLoki, #4 is tempting cause it looks so much like something you’d never make up cause it’s so quirky, which means you probably made it up.
But then, #3 is so mundane it seems like it couldn’t be made up… but why would you think of if it were true?.. which means you probably did make it up, and it’s a sucker punch.
“You’re stalling now.”
“You’d like to think that, wouldn’t you?”
Ok, since 1 & 2 seem somehow to go together, I’ll say the Statue of Liberty is a lie trying to look inconspicuous, and that the singing clipper is a true thing you just hardly ever get an opportunity to tell multitudes of strangers.
What? You’ve never seen any of the Fatcat threads? Yes, in addition to flushing the toilet (which is a weird trick he taught himself, won’t do it on command but will insist on cat treats anyway), my father taught him to “speak”, “beg” and “walkabout” (which is to stand up on two legs and turn around, kinda like a pirouette).
More recently he was learned “circle”, and was working on “other way” (which is circling in the other direction), but “other way” confuses him.
He will not “speak” for anyone but my father.
Visitors think his tricks are hysterical, so he usually get sick after we’ve had houseguests from eating all the treats they give him for tricks.
Well, OtakuLoki hit it right on the head. I was never an extra in any movie.
Although honorable mention goes to TeaElle who knows I’ve got a bitter soul this year, due to the NHL lockout. . .
But no, I really am paranoid about what time it is. . . It’s a pet peeve of mine when I’m watching TV, and the VCR clock is two minutes off.
Tripler
Og, I’m such a dork . . . :smack:
1.) I had sex with a woman 10 years older than me in the North Pacific Ocean
2.) I once saw a nude woman drop off her (clothed) kid at school.
3.) To this day, I have never gotten caught farting in the elevator
4.) A mentally retarded man once bit a woman next to me on the foot at the library
So what the fuck are the true lies, anyway?
yosemite got me.
How did you know?
Yes, I am sorry to say I did not speak up for the kitten. My former husband did it, and he was the boss, I wouldn’t have dared speak against him. (he’s gone now, thankfully)
As for the bananas, I was trying to gain weight. At the time, I was 5’11" and weighed 110 lbs.
What the hell, this looks like fun.
