Two Truths and a Lie?


Dev

Recommended Posts

  • Admin

Hello!

Now that I have time to be social, I'd like to get to know the folks who participate here.  Two truths and a lie is a fun little game I've used before to help with that.  I've never tried it in a forum, but why not? The game is simple: I'll post three things about myself.  If you'd like to play along, comment with a guess as to which one of those three things is an utter, shameful lie, along with three things about yourself, one of which isn't true.  Here we go!

  1. When I was working, I was "Miss Fix-It."  The company handed me failing business units so I could turn them around into productive teams.
  2. I have a beautiful dog and four adorable cats.
  3. I take more than ten prescription meds daily for various things.

Your turn! :D

I'll go with 3 as the lie.. 

1. While out for surgery I got a promotion.

2. I have a 2010 Pt Cruiser.

3. I worked at a veterinary clinic in HS as a kennel assistant.

Hmm.  For you, Marcie, I'm going to say there's a lie in number two somewhere. 

I'll wait and see how many others want to play before I reveal all. :D

Dev, I thought it was #2.  

Marcie, #2 is a lie.

For me:

1. I like to sew

2. I can fix anything

3. I love roller coasters

I may be projecting myself onto you, Jani, but I'm going to say your number three is a big fat lie. :lol:

Oh am I really that transparent?   You got me.   

My wife and son love them.  They terrify me!

Jani hit the nail on the head for me.  I'm not a crazy cat lady.  Yet.  I have one beautiful dog and just one adorable cat. :)

I will try. 

1) I won an honorable mention on my first quilt at the state fair. 

2)I am a computer whiz and work with computers. 

3) I work on a farm repairing things and doing what no one else will do. 

It looks like a fun game. Thanks for sharing.

Good ones, Rachael.  You made it hard to guess!  I'm going to have to say number two is the lie, because in my mind quilting and farming go together.

That's what i would have guessed Dev.  

Rachel i have to agree with Dev here your not a confuser wiz.

Here is mine.

1.  I had an art show called "Glass Quilts"

2. I produce over 45 gals. of maple syrup here in NJ each year.

3. We farm sheep.

 

Hugs,

Let's see...  I'd say for Rachael it's #2 also.  From Iowa where there's lots of quilts and lots of farms, but not lots of computers.  LOL

For you Charlize, I'd say #1 although I can't remember if you said you had chickens and goats or chickens and sheep.  But I know you've got a farm.  And while not exactly famous for maple syrup, I've seen maple syrup from NJ in the past so I'm going to believe you on that one.  Although 45 gallons is a LOT of syrup.  You'd have to tap a lot of trees to make that much.  I change my mind.  I'm going to say #3 is a lie instead. 

For me, I'm going to share these:

1. I graduated from HS at 16 and drove across the country to start college.

2. I'm into woodworking and made all of our furniture.

3. I love running and trail hiking.

I am with Briana, you farm goats Charlize. Racheal, I am going to go with 1. You probably won it. :)

Brianna, I am going to say 2, since not all furniture is made out of wood.

@Charlize - sheep?  I'm trying to remember what I've seen you say in the past about the farm.  I think I'm going to have to go with number two being your lie.  You farm, and my brain doesn't want to call a maple syrup outfit a farm.  Watch me be wrong about that.  These are getting harder!  I love it!

@Briana - You gave us an easy one with number three, since running and hiking are the first things listed in your interests at the left of your posts.  I think I'll go with number two being your lie.  If it's actually true, I'd love to see pictures of some of your work!

Charlize, maple syrup is a lie.

Brianna, graduating at 16 is a lie.

It's #2 computers and I do not get along well some days.i did get a ribbon at the fair. 

Charlize, 

#3 you have mentioned sheep in past posts if memory serves me. 

Briana,  

#2 I can see you doing woodworking but all of your furniture ? If you did then you did good. I think it's possible to graduate early rare but doable.

Ok i'll say #2 for Briana.  

1,  I did have a show called Glass Quilts

2,  We make anywhere from 45 to 60 gals of syrup from over 350 taps on vacuum using both an RO machine and a wood fired evaporator.

3.  16 of our GOATS are going to be sacrificed on the farm over this Islamic holiday.  We are vegetarians but try to provide for others who love goat meat and need it for their religious life (the sacrifice of Abraham).  We also try to give our animals a wonderful life.

 

Hugs,

 

Charlize

Fun post!  My "lie" is #2.  I've built some, but not all for sure.  As for school, I stared just before I turned 5 based on the way the starting age structure was set up.  I was the 2nd youngest in my class.  "Kathy" was the youngest  by one day.  From there I took extra classes each quarter plus tested out of some the basics.  I had to wait to graduate till I was 16 due to drivers ed which was a requirement at the time where we lived.

1.  At a house of ill-repute, while I was sleeping off a night of imbibing, all of my clothes were stolen.

2.  As a country music DJ, I generated a crowd scene by repeatedly denying that Hank Williams, Junior, was eating at a local fried chicken  outlet.

3.  In my high school yearbook, I was voted "Most Humorous".

Link to comment

It's Number 3.

I didn't (and still don't) think Larry Jacks was all that funny.  They put me in an ill-fitting pharmacist smock, handed me a test tube and snapped my picture as "Most Intellectual".  I've never gotten over it.

:D:D:applause:    You were probably the funniest in that picture alone.  They just didn't see it.

      I have three within a two block walk! You'd think I was in Seattle already! The one I have always gone to is the quintessential "local coffee shop" though; local artist's works on the wall, drinks named after customers and local geography, and it's run down just enough to feel homey. Also, I can bring my 20oz coffee mug in and get it filled for the price of a small! :D

      Eczema was my excuse. *high fives!*   It's lovely when you get a nice interaction like that. Yesterday I got a "you're so sweet" from a man who I held the door for, I don't think he saw all of me until after he'd walked past so he only picked up on my outfit and body appearance. I was so paranoid that I used too male of a voice in return, but c'est la vie. I felt really nice after it though.   I tend to try to put in a lot of effort. If I wear make up, it has to be perfect, etc. I put this pressure on myself because I, too, don't have a chance in h-e-double hockey sticks at "passing".  So, I try not to make myself an "easy target".

      It's just the opposite here.  There are a ton of local boutique coffee roasters in this area.  There is no excuse for bad coffee here, which is why I am always surprised when I get mediocre truck-stop coffee in restaurants.

      It’s a huge difference, the laser has done wonders. I still have some stragglers, but I hope a few more sessions to try to zap those. Mostly what’s left are the white/blonde hairs, they still need a shave but they don’t really cause me much dysphoria.   I do use makeup, I barely go out without liner and mascara these days. Don’t tend to do a full face, but when I go for a little coverage I use tinted moisturizer and a little concealer under setting powder. Here’s me today, with about as much makeup as I go out with (forgive me the wings, I struggled today…), I went and got my hair done, so I had to look good for the ladies.

      This is me as well. I wear dresses and skirts exclusively.  That is pretty obvious.  When I get misgendered, it's not by mistake.

      These places have the best food.   Unfortunately, the one I used to go to thinks I'm going to hell these days.

      I'm glad to hear it! Fruits and veggies time! I just had a greek yogurt with flax meal and blueberries and now I'm feeling better about that! I am so glad you're OK!   Just finished my second cup of coffee after an appointment with my normal stylist, I haven't see her since November! First time see her since going femme full time. I'd texted her before the appointment, just in case, but she has been super sweet the whole time. Not much hair ended up on the floor, but I'm going to need the back trimmed before long but for now I just got some shaping done.   Ugh, I'm sorry to hear that. My guess is your neighbor won't be paying the medical bill...

      Doubt it, most people against the T are also against the LGB, I am bi and it all seems to intersect one way or another. Trans people are "new" in the eyes of the public so its just a weird thing for them all.

      I have the same feeling as you. I often wish I had started HRT earlier or was on puberty blockers, maybe I could have been taller than 5'7. But there's nothing you can do about it now, that's life and as much as it sucks and seems pointless at times you have to work with what you are given. "Passing isn't the end all be all" I hear a lot but to me it is everything, as much as that may sound like an insane position It is just how I feel.   Anyway, on the topic of your mother, mine had the same sentiment and mostly still does along with my father. Im not sure how old you are but you seem to be around my age or younger, I am 17. But most families don't know how to deal with it and they will probably see you as your original gender no matter what you do. Their comments mean nothing really because in the end when adulthood rolls around you can just leave or at least have some independence from them.   I would also not compare yourself to other males, it will eat you alive. I just remind myself that I will get there, maybe I won't be the pillar of masculinity but ill pass one day. Envy is the thief of happiness or something like that.

      I can never find coffee that matches good restaurants coffee.  The closest iv come so far was when I accidentally made a pot last week with less water than I had meant to use.  But that still wasn’t right.  Now I’ve heard put a little salt in with the ground coffee or add baking soda but I have no clue how much to use.   home baked pie in the local cafe is the best, but the best Key Lime pie was from a place called The Fish House in Key Largo. One thing they do differently is the topping is meringue not whipped cream. But it’s also made from real key limes.  An advantage of being in the keys.   willow

      They have unleashed the hounds toward every less than perfectly, and idealistically feminine Cis woman in the state to be sued for not looking the way a plaintiff thinks they should look.
