[Game] Bullsh*t

[Shepherd]

Let's keep these one at a time like we did last time. Don't start a new one until the last one has been solved.

For those new to the game, people post three truths and one lie. We guess which one is "bullshit."

1. I have ridden an elephant (and not some zoo or circus thing either).
2. I have seen people eat dog, squirrel, frog, live octopus, and shark, but I've never tried any of those things.
3. I'm learning French because I plan to go to cooking school in France in two years.
4. I have four different names on my legal documents depending on which one you look at.

(If I've actually talked to you off board about any of these things please refrain from guessing :) ).

[Bryan H]

The fourth one. Thats just weird.

[FredC]

Imma say 2 because you've eaten Octopus.

[Shepherd]

3.

BAH! That happened last time too. I must suck at lying. The truth is my wife is planning on going to cooking school in France and that's why I'm relearning French.

R

[Bryan H]

You really have four legal names? Weirdo.

I wanna play! I don't think people know me very well so this shouldn't be too easy:

1. It took my four bullets to kill my first deer.
2. I was higher than I've ever been in my life off shrooms while my father died downstairs.
3. I insulted a six year old who only had one hand by accident.
4. I've reached orgasm while waiting overnight for a video game console.

[Shepherd]

The fourth one. Thats just weird.

Nope, true. In America, my original birth certificate says "Ryan Reiling" because that's my mom's last name, and she wasn't married yet when I was born. Everything after my step dad adopted my says "Ryan Shepherd" (so most stuff). In Korea, my name is normally written in Korean characters, which would be roughly "La-ee-awn Swheh-paw-duh," but my current job fucked up my documents, so anything from then says "Lee-an" instead of "La-ee-awn."

R

[Shepherd]

Imma say 2 because you've eaten Octopus.

Nope, never. I'm a vegetarian, in fact.

R

[Bryan H]

Ah, that makes sense. I was thinking you had something like "Testicle Jones" on your library card.

Ha. Let's hope it's 4.

R

[Bryan H]

Ha. Let's hope it's 4.

R

Keep trying. :)

[Ray G.]

I'll guess 1 for Bryan.

[Shepherd]

Ah, that makes sense. I was thinking you had something like "Testicle Jones" on your library card.

I intentionally made it vague, but it wasn't a lie.

R

[Bryan H]

I'll guess 1 for Bryan.

Damn! I was so proud of myself too.

Never been hunting in my life. I'm a pussy.

[Shepherd]

Who's next?

R

[jess]

i'll go!

[Ray G.]

My turn, then! Edit: Sorry, Jess! I thought we were going by the "winner goes" rules!

1. I once ate a stew of five organ meats with my hands tied behind my back to win a contest.

2. I haven't been to a doctor in over eight years, including two illnesses where I lost over ten pounds.

3. I once had to take a girl I was on a date with to the hospital after she injured herself trying to assault me.

4. I was once questioned by the police due to the Halloween costume I was wearing.

I hope it's 2 because I really want the other ones to be true.

R

[Shepherd]

Winner goes rules probably simplify things, so let's stick to that from now on (unless the winner says he or she doesn't want to go).

k i'm sorry :surrend:

i'm good at this game, though.

[Ray G.]

The answer is 2, congratulations, Shepherd! It actually would have been true, but I went in for a Tetanus Booster three years ago. :)

Someone can go next, but if you want, I'll tell you the slightly expanded version of the other three. ;)

No problem. It wasn't stated until after you posted. If you want to go now in place of me (since I already went) go ahead.

Yep, do tell. I'm curious.

[jess]

okay, ray needs to spill some guts here. i'm intrigued. but after that-


1.) I just finished The Wake.

2.) I am not telling my kid about Santa Claus.

3.) I'm pregnant

4.) I'm going to have dreadlocks by age 23

I'm going with 2, if only because I feel the same way.

Edit: I'm extra dumb!

[jess]

I'm going with 2, if only because I feel the same way.

i think santa is kinda outdated. i just want my kid to be scared enough of us to keep his behavior in check ;)

i'm kidding! don't butcher me i'm just kidding!

[Ray G.]

Okay, here's the backstory.


1. My local Newspaper has a yearly event, the Munchmobile, where people ride in a van with a giant hot dog on top and visit restaurants around New Jersey every week. It's a highly desired treat to ride on the Big Dog for one week, so you can imagine that when there was a contest to ride every summer, it got pretty crazy. That was the stunt that got me on the Big Dog. It was the combination of how gross(to them) what I ate was, and how I ate it. :)

3. When I was 16, I asked out this pretty Freshman who I had my eyes on for a few weeks. The date was going pretty well, until we started discussing Titanic. Yes, the movie Titanic. She had it on DVD and had watched it over 30 times, I thought it was a blight on humanity. Sure, maybe I didn't have to mock it quite so much, but I was 16. So she decides to step on my foot to shut me up. Hard. I yell in pain, and she tries to do it again. I dodge out of the way, and she plants her foot wrong, her high heel snaps, and she winds up on the ground screaming and clutching her foot. A hospital visit and x-rays ensue, and she ended the date with a cast and crutches.

The funny thing is, we actually wound up dating for most of the year. Go figure.

4. When I was 17(the last year I went trick-or-treating) my costume was "postapocalyptic zombie goth mercenary". Most people loved it, but this one old lady was convinced I was dressed as an undead Columbine shooter, and called the cops. :lol:

And now you know the rest of the story. :)

number three was awesome. :lol:

[PimpSlapStick!]

I say 2

[Shepherd]

you're on a roll!

hell fucking no i'm not pregnant!!! never again.

Yep, I'm good. I'll go again I guess, then. This'll be the last one for me, though.

1) I had a dinner conversation in three languages last week.
2) The person I called "dad" until I was 3 was actually a woman.
3) My father-in-law's parents were both North Korean, but did not escape the north together.
4) I almost crapped my pants (literally) on the top of the Eiffle Tower.

R

[GrandeMaestro Fünke]

[FredC]

I'm gonna say 2.

[Haborym]

R

Hmmm.

3?

[Shepherd]

Shit, I just realized I have to teach, but I actually want to be out of the classroom for their first project anyway (class review), so I'll be back to answer this in about 5 or 10 minutes.

R

[PimpSlapStick!]

Numba 4

[Bryan H]

R

"Brb, teaching"

[Shepherd]

Hmmm.

3?

Nope, completely true. To make it even weirder, they were both married to other people in North Korea that they had to leave behind. They both even had kids in North Korea. They just had a chance to escape and took it. They met a year after escaping and got married a year after that.

R

[PimpSlapStick!]

Damn didn't notice your nationality

[jess]

1

[Haborym]

I'll say 1 then (since the rest are covered). It was 4 languages, wasn't it?

[Shepherd]

I got all mixed up there somehow. The correct answer was 4. That incident happened, but it was at the top of Notre Dame cathedral. I ate bad Indian food the night before, and I to go pretty bad. I seriously almost crapped my pants. I was actually considering shitting in a trash can in one of the bell towers, but then the lady let me go down, and I ran down the stairs and made it into a nasty nasty public bathroom. I don't think I've ever pooped so much at one time.

The other ones are true. The languages were French, Korean, and of course, English. I was the only one at the table who spoke all three, so man, that was a confusing lot of translating. I kept it pretty under control, though. I only spoke the wrong language to the wrong person once or twice.

The person I called "dad" was my mom's best friend, who I now call "Aunt Becky" and call my stepdad dad.

R

[PimpSlapStick!]

Cool I'll go next.

1.I've never hit a woman.
2.I can go 4 solid days without sleep with no ill effects.
3.I've been shot.
4.I've had a heat stroke.

[Shepherd]

4

Yeah, 4. If you want to go, go ahead. Sorry about the mix-up.

R

[Shepherd]

Damn didn't notice your nationality

My nationality is American, by the way. I just live in Korea.

You haven't been shot. I call -- what's that word?

[GrandeMaestro Fünke]

Coolio! I'll go:

1. During my sophmore year of High School my teacher gave our class action figures. I got movie Mr. Fantastic!
2. When I went to the Eiffel Tower the elevator going down was out of operation.
3. During 8th grade I had 2 out of 4 teachers leave mid year.
4. The only sporting event I've been to have been exhibition games.

[Bryan H]

Wow. Tough one. I'll say 1 because I bet there's some funny story in which you had to hit a woman. And then there's the fact that your name has "Pimp slap" right in it.

R

[PimpSlapStick!]

# 2 is bull shit.

[Shepherd]

Coolio! I'll go:

1. During my sophmore year of High School my teacher gave our class action figures. I got movie Mr. Fantastic!

3. During 8th grade I had 2 out of 4 teachers leave mid year.
4. The only sporting event I've been to have been exhibition games.

Hmmm, another tough one. I'll say number 1. I'm guessing you got something different.

R

[PimpSlapStick!]

I figured with my name you guys would go for #1

# 2 is bull shit.

Okay, but how/when/why did you get shot?

[Bryan H]

I figured with my name you guys would go for #1

I almost said 1, but like Shepard I figured there's some story involving you popping a crossdresser or something.

I headbutted a girl in bed once rolling over, by accident. Gave her a bit fat lip, and got lots of weird stares next time we went out!

[PimpSlapStick!]

You got it. It was only one.

Nice.


1.I nearly tossed my cookies in the hospital watching my wife give birth.
2.My best friend when I was 12 ripped open his testicles on scrap metal in a junkyard, yes I nearly tossed my cookies.
3.My next door neighbor tried to have sex with me, I declined and nearly tossed my cookies.
4.I've beaten the shit out of a guy for eating my cookies, that I stashed for later.

i've seen it happen. fucking horrible.

[PimpSlapStick!]

Okay, but how/when/why did you get shot?

Senior year in highschool, was out late on the corner with my boys, it was a stray bullet grazed my right ankle more likely ricochet off the pavement and hit me. Funny thing is I've been shot at multiple times in my life most recently in Iraq, but a fucking idiot in my neighborhood is the one to get me and I wasn't even the target.

[PimpSlapStick!]

The answer is #3

[Bryan H]

My buddy Brian indeed ripped his sack, it was pretty minor a injury lots of blood though.

Ever heard of 'pogeebay' it's a military term for a secret stash of goods, in Iraq most guys would get food and other goodies sent from home and hide them, you never know how much a Oreo cookie means to you until ya can't get those things on the regular.

We did for about 3 months a couple of years ago. Then poof it was like they were never here.
I remember around that time a complusory home economics class I was in devolved into a tirade from the teacher about how good they were.

I feel your pain. I spend a buttload getting food sent to me from time to time. It's never stuff I would have expected to miss, either: gravy, refried beans, canned peas (I don't get it either), tomato soup, and various other random stuff. You never know what you'll miss 'til it's gone.
