I will go with #1 because it is the most believable (thus, it must be a lie! :p)

I will go with #1 because it is the most believable (thus, it must be a lie! :p)
I don't like the idea of a spider monkey being electrocuted, but I LOVE the idea of a spider money disrupting tea parties by chucking apples at the guests while perched atop a china cabinet!
PLEASE let his name have been 'Mr. Bananas.'
Haha, his name was "Cheeky," which was deliciously appropriate.
Heathcliff got it right, the lie was #2... I've always been very careful about leaving doors and windows open during the winter because I couldn't stop picturing the exact same scenario.
Okay. I had a bird once.
1. I had a nightmare once where my bird flew out the window and I caught it back by scooping it into an Acubra Hat.
2. I honestly enjoy walking.
3. I used to go to a pediatrist (I think that is how you spell it) when I was little, however he wanted me to come back more than once a year and I didn't really want to bother, so I didn't go back.
These are rather vague but... no.2?
I pick number 3
I'll take #1.
JuniperWoolf wins again.
It was a baseball cap I caught the bird with.
Honestly, I don't think I've ever seen anyone, except for a couple of oldies on ANZAC Day, ever wear an Acubra hat. Highly unlikely that many people would actually own one.
Alriiiiight... this one's theme will be "random facts about my friends."
1. My semi-boyfriend Dave once jumped into a deep river despite the fact that he couldn't swim, and when my friend Antoine jumped in to save him Dave's finger got caught on 'Toine's piercing and ripped his earlobe. It still hurts him sometimes. They both almost died.
2. My friend Rosie passed out in biology class one day because we were learning about the female reproductive system and she's "delicate." She smoked her head on the lab table behind her and we had to call in the paramedics. My bio teacher panicked, which is funny because he used to be a medic.
3. My friend Tom is very Polish, and once when he was visiting his homeland he got arrested because he had a joint in his pocket. Being Canadian he thought that he would just maybe get his joint taken away, but he ended up spending three days in a jail cell.
I'll go with 1 as the others seem to have the ring of truth, especially no. 3

I'm guessing it was two days or four days. Must brush up on Polish laws.
Heath wins! I actually completely made that one up (see what a good liar I am, Pen?).
Haha. Too good!
1. I spent about five hours in my room ignoring the world and sitting cross-legged facing the wall when I was little. It was after I lost a game of tennis, however I don't think that was why I was grumpy, but I don't think that was it.
2. In a digital portfolio I created when I was eleven I made one of the pages black and yellow, and my techer yelled at me because I based it on negative things.
3. One year when I was really little I painted four little candles to give mum for mother's day, despite the fact that it was one am by the time I finished.
I guess #1 - don't know why though...
#3 Can't see a very young person being allowed to stay up that long
I've had art teachers like #2!
#2... it was black and red.
Pendragon wins! I was up that late, however there were only three candles. I couldn't find a fourth.
Let's see here:
1: I am a big fan of Sherlock Holmes down to owning a Deerstalker and calabash pipe
2: I have absolutely no interest in horror fiction outside of Bram Stoker's Dracula and Mary Shelly's Frankenstein.
3: I really like the old stuff much better than what passes for good literature today
Good luck
I'm going with #2.
I say number 1... Instead of a Deerstalker and calabash pipe, he might own something else...
I'll take 3.
Papayahed wins! I am also a big fan of HP Lovecraft!
Alllll Riiiigghhhhttttt!!!
OK, let me see...
1. I have been to several star wars conventions but I've never worn a costume.
2. I'm afraid of heights. At an industrial building I went up in a manlift to the roof (about 40 ft) got on the roof then couldn't make myself step back on the manlift so I had to get down by the inside emergency access ladders.
3. I was kicked out of a bar for fighting but was let back in after the girl I was fighting with was kicked out.
Oh, this is too easy: Number one is the lie -- You must have worn a costume, right?
Number#3. I wonder why did you stay there after being kicked out.
2. I'm afraid of heights. At an industrial building I went up in a manlift to the roof (about 40 ft) got on the roof then couldn't make myself step back on the manlift so I had to get down by the inside emergency access ladders.
I'm scared of heights. :(

I was waiting for my friends. (It wasn't much of a fight either. Some crazy chick was hitting on a guy from our group. A girl from our group turned to say something to the guy and crazy chick jumped on her. Another girl and I kinda jumped in the middle (the other chick was way bigger and meaner looking then our friend) which turned into a knot of girls pulling each others hair until security showed up)Quote:

Theme: former jobs
1. I used to install residential sewer systems. It was a crappy job, but I learned a lot about plumbing.
2. I once got paid to be a hair model at a local cosmetology exposition. My stylist asked me to help her out because I had "nice hair for a boy". And, yes, I do have lovely locks. *checks the mirror* ;)
3. I used to work as a gardener and lackey for a former graduate school professor of mine. Yes, I was a total suck up. Yes, I got a good letter of recommendation.
My guess is: #3 is the lie.
I pick number 1 because it's punny. (It'd be even punny if it were actually number 2)
I guess I'll pick #2, since it is the only one left.
That was a good strategy cgrillo because you guessed it. I've never been paid to model my hair, but I have installed sewer systems and was a lackey for my professor.Quote:

So cgrillo, it's your turn!
Oh, right, I forgot I guessed on this one.
1. I do, in fact, know how to ride a bike.
2. I've never broken a bone in my body.
3. I hate celebrating my birthday.
2. I've never broken a bone in my body.
Possible...
1 - Too embarrassing to share if it's actually true ;)
3 for no other reason that a lot of people do hate their birthday, including yours truly, so perhaps you deviate from the norm and actually like it! :bday_2:
Correct. I like your thinking behind this.Quote:

...in fact...
1) I have an abject fear of knives, having been stabbed once back in high school
2) I love to hunt, but I prefer small game to large game
3) There are few bones in my body that haven't seen some type of break or other trauma as I head for the big 5-0
#1 I could have sworn that you collect knives.
Silly old Grover, you know me only too well. Yes, I collect knives of all shapes and sizes, but I was stabbed above the kidney back in high school. I still carry the scar.
OK, papayahed got it in one. She is up next!:smilielol5:
