You can't make most of that up! I'm sure it's 3 or 5, but I'm going to guess 5.

Nope. Keeping in mind that my opinion is subjective, I can make pretty much anything I have a recipe for or I can freehand make things, throw ingredients together in decent ways. I also make a mean set of ribs.

My wife on the other hand, tries to get fancy and ends up screwing things up half the time. She can make a handful of things without messing it up (these usually consist of chilidogs, ramen, or sandwichs.)

Have to rewrite these, they got deleted somehow.

1: I once had a man vomit on me from thirty feet above my head. It was beer and crawdads.
2. For about a week, I worked as a rodeo clown and made some decent money.
3. I fell on my head as a child.
4. Once when I was in the Army, I swelled up and almost died to an allergic reaction from the sun.
5. I'm a better cook than my wife.

next?

Bah. Yes, that's the one. I've never worked as a rodeo clown.


I was vomited on by a man while I was running a Zipper. It was my mistake for letting a drunk man ride while I was on duty, but meh. Needless to say, I had to stand there in 105 degree heat in Austin Texas until someone found me a replacement so I could shower.


I did fall on my head as a child. When I was in elementary school, I was walking on some bleachers in the gym and some idiot in my class launched a basketball at me and hit me in the back of the head. I fell headfirst about twelve feet and luckily landed on sideways on my head. The skin on my forehead was split enough to where they could see my skull. It required 21 stitches, 7 inside and 14 out. The thing that sucked is the local anethesia wore off before they started.

I'd say "blargh," but...well, you know. You've been there.
Rancoura2009-09-07 21:26:52
More-game related ones.

1. I have a fascination with/enthusiasm for weaponry.
2. I pray to Lord Nocht IRL. Sometimes.
3. Lusternia was my first ever MUD.
4. Rancoura was my first character in Lusternia.
5. <<< I have the Triquetra symbol on a pendant IRL.


Karel, #4.
Karel2009-09-07 21:45:55
Nope. It's all part of being a minor in East Asian Languages. x_x
And I don't think that Rancoura is the type to be obsessed with weaponry, unless you as a person are thus fixated.

Numero four.

And... wrong!

#4 was a lie. I'm not Asatru, though I find it to be a fascinating religion/culture. (Sorry, Kante!)

So, my truths were all guessed to be lies. Does this mean I win?

Psssshhhhh!
Parabollus2009-09-07 22:36:02
I'm joining the thread a bit late to make any kind of guesses as to others' truths/lies on here, as I'd probably get lost as to what was picked already. So I won't try to, so as to not confuse the guesses of others on here.

However, I do still want to join in! I don't know if it's safe for me to do my four truths and a lie thing yet, but if it is, I'll post them right now! If this isn't an appropriate time, please tell me and I'll remove them for me to post when it's a safer time.

Anyway, my four-truths-and-a-lie:
  1. In high school I was a part of the National Honor Society.
  2. I once wrote a letter to Mumia Abu-Jamal...and received a response.
  3. I have a Nintendo DS autographed by all five members of the metal band Hatebreed.
  4. I've never been in a mosh pit.
  5. I take medicine that was originally derived from the poisonous venom of the Gila monster (now synthesized).

Enjoy!
Rancoura2009-09-07 22:55:49
Four is wrong. Rancoura was my first!

And I, as a person, have a fascination with weaponry. Which is why Rancoura sometimes makes excuses/looks for people to design weapons for (<3 my ritual dagger). Edit: So, #1 is also wrong.

#2 for Para is the lie.

Nope, that one is actually true! I wrote the letter to Mumia Abu-Jamal during...late 2002 if I remember correctly, during my second year at Hampshire College. It took a while to receive the response, since, well, he's in prison, but I eventually did get one. I'd rather not reveal what I wrote to him or the response right now, as that's a bit private, but I've made a photocopy of his response and I still have it to this day. So yes, that actually did happen.

To update:

  2. I once wrote a letter to Mumia Abu-Jamal...and received a response.
  3. I have a Nintendo DS autographed by all five members of the metal band Hatebreed.

CORRECT! *sounds of bells and whistles*

Granted, I've only ever been in one mosh pit ever, but I've still been in one. It was when God Forbid was playing in my city of Rochester, NY in March 2008 when they were co-headlining with Hatebreed. It was the same concert I got my DS signed by Hatebreed, actually.

Dang, I guess I made it too easy. Must think of some harder ones. tongue.gif

I happen to know that you're a devout Catholic and that's what twisted you into what you are today.
