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

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".

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.

      https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/mississippi-passes-bill-allowing?r=k5hac&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web   This part could be pretty bad-   "Lastly, it offers a “private right of action” that appears to be targeted at transgender people, allowing cisgender people to sue to prevent transgender people from using bathrooms aligned with their gender identity…"   I can see a potential for bathroom "vigilantes" to use this.  Just paying legal fees to defend yourself can ruin you, regardless of the outcome of the case.

      It's all well and good, but the facts on the street will always be different than what is written on paper. It takes a very long time for an EEOC or OSHA complaint to get attention. For most people, the length of time between filing a complaint and something actually getting done means just finding a different job.

      As a transgender male often I feel as if I'm not viewed as man enough especially around other biological males. I often also feel as if I'm not enough in general not good enough to have the things that I have because I ruin everything and I feel like a phony when trying to pass. I look in the mirror and my outside appearance doesn't match the way I want to look and appear and my mom prevents me from reaching my maximum male potential and around my mom I'm always mis-genderd and she tells me that Im not a man and never will be one which plays into me feeling not man enough because I feel like I never will me the man I know I am. I don't know what to do with these feelings and thoughts.

      I was really lucky when I gave up smoking. I just decided one morning that I just didn't want to smoke anymore. That was back in 1996. The silly thing was, I still had a couple of packets left I and used them up! After that I only 'borrowed' less than a handful in the months after that and I haven't missed them since.

      Our Maltese daughter-in-law makes a very mean Bolognese sauce, which we combine with spiral pasta. We pulled some leftovers out of the freezer for tonight's meal.   Tomorrow night will be chicken Kiev, with potato segments baked in the same dish, accompanied with boiled peas and broccolini.

      I suspect some of these people are not primarily LGBTQ+ but primarily get their kicks by publicly shocking other people.  They take advantage of the parade and think they can get away with it year after year, and sometimes do.  Not just the parade, but sometimes other events that provide cover for them to act this way. They do a great deal of damage to perceptions by the public and by the legislators against us.

      I used to smoke many years ago.  Now it makes me sick on my stomach which I consider a plus.

      I use a electric kettle and a French press.   I am not a fan of Starbucks.  I sometimes go to a local coffeeshop, but am satisfied with your basic coffee and a scone.

      Many "red" or "blue" states are not monolithic.  NC splits something like 49-51.  Actually, about 1/3 Rep, 1/3 Dem, and 1/3 nonaffiliated.     Since the legislature makes the districts, they favor the Rep to a 1 vote super majority.  Our Governor is Dem, and Dems can win statewide elections.   Of course you'd never know that with what is coming out of the statehouse lately. My point is that the "shifting" is not really shifting, it only reflects the actual population of the state.   When I was growing up I used to hear it said that "changing her mind was a woman's prerogative."  I embrace that.  I am fine with changing my mind when I want to.  Things change, sometimes we need to change as well.  I don't consider that as "unstable" - just not dead yet.
