Complaint Department discussion

Oh I hate page turns, so confusing, having to go back and forth to see what I lied about. Well, I hate to say this, especially on such a feeble choice selection ;-) but Preston is correct. #3 is a lie.

As a child I had a gray (doh) cat called Smokey. The family doctor had a fit on a visit and blamed poor Smokey for all my asthma and eczema behind the knees (the eczema that is, not the asthma; all of which vanished after Smokey passed away)

And my grandmother gave me a bright blue budgerigar as a 5th birthday present and for some obscure reason I named him Timmy.

I never would have had a gerbil of any name because they're now blamed for the plague!

Take it away Preston!

Don't blame the poor gerbils. You think they like having fleas? How would they know their fleas had plague ick.

Oh right it my turn give you two truths and a lie.

1. I've had a VESPA still in the box from the store in my Garage. It's never been used or even unboxed since I bought it FIVE YEARS AGO.

2. My favorite movie is Avatar but I don't think Sam Worthington is sexy at all except as a blue alien avatar.

3. In the middle of a dinner honoring the students with the highest GPAs in each of the University's schools, my teacher who was chaperoning me to the awards asked me if I wanted to go see porn movies and I said yes. So we got up and left and went to Theater that played a dirty movies. I don't know what happened when they got to me and I wasn't there to receive the award.

3) Bald lie, that is!

2 (even though its probably true)

i was going to say #3 as well...but i'm left w/#1

I'm off to London soon, back later on Friday, so out of the room for the duration…

#1 is the lie

Marcie is he Winner {applause]

1) during this time of the year when my son is playing in 3 baseball teams: school, town league, & travel ball. and my daughter with softball & basketball...most of our dinners are made in the crock-pot.

2) my daughter is one of two 4th graders playing on a basketball team composed of 6th graders.

3) our girls & boys basketball team headed for the championship and won the 2015 central valley championship!

3

That's what I think too… :::sigh:: so I'll say the lie is… 2

1 i suppose

2) true. she plays on a team for her age group (9yr/4th) and also on the 6th grade team.

3) also true! both boys & girls are valley champions! my daughter has been playing for her since 2nd grade...she is so pumped already thinking of the future.

-boys (45-41)

1) is the lie. while my kids are keeping me busy, i have never used a crock-pot for cooking.

kit, it is your turn!

It's Kit's turn on both the lie and the truth games :-)

@ kit: attagirl!!

wooh for guessing!

1. I prefer pepsi to coke
2. My great-great-great uncle was a native american chief
3. I hate eating ramen

Wow! a dual winner on Lies and Tries!

1.

#3

2) No he wasn't, he was a French wine-growing baron related to Capt. Jean-Luc Picard.

Marcie wins!

1. yup pepsi is best~
2. yes he was and he had twins who had blue eyes, so he kicked them out because it "was a sign of evil" which is how my relatives come to be from kentucky
3. I love ramen! I don't eat it often but I really do love it

Of course Pepsi is best. I can't believe anyone here would go for that other cola which an overly sweet children's drink.

And that other cola is finally switching from glass bottles to plastic ones in Germany, even though the glass ones can be reused up to 40 times and plastic ones all end up polluting the sea. Glass bottles have been a must in Germany for Coke evers ince the end of the war as detailed in Billy Wilder's movie One, Two, Three.

Marcie won!

1) i have gone to work in my pajamas.

2) i own 18 pairs of open toe shoes.

3) through all my schooling (elementary-high school) i disliked taking/having summer & winter vacations and holidays.

2

1.

I know you are a very hard-working person, Marcie, so #3 is obviously the lie.

1) i have worn my pajamas to work during spirit week.

2) i do not own that many.

3) being both my parents were farm laborers i did dislike taking these breaks from school. being out there/working all day in those weather conditions was no fun.

Kit, it's your turn again! *high-five*

I didn't know they still had spirit week at work, but I figure everyone's at least gone to work in their pajamas once (except me of course)

1. I am passive aggressive
2. Today I bought two books between classes
3. Today I bought clothes during class

3.

2. (catching up with someone… :-)

kit, i work at a elementary school (k-8th). which i ab~so~lute~ly LOVE!

number 1

@marcie, ahh that makes sense

and you win, I am not passive aggressive, I'm just aggressive

@kit: I love how you worded that! "...just aggressive."

1) I love to dance more to english songs than the music of my people :-)

2) I get kissed at least a dozen times a day. And told I'm loved just as much.

3) I have never travel outside of California (other than when I was way younger and my parents took me to Mexico).

#3 (because 2 is bound to to be true and # makes sense ;-)

#1 is such a big lie it is funny :-D

I guess 2 then :P and thanks Marcie lol

2) is true! if it wasn't for my 12 yr old son i wouldn't know what it is to get all that loving. he can care less if his friends are around. he's gonna make one affectionate/loving partner one day. you're welcome future daughter or son-in-law :)

3) sadly this is true. in all my 30 *fake cough* years i have NEVER traveled outside of california.

1) i love both english & spanish music. can dance to spanish just fine, but i have absolutely NO rhythm and english (go figure). so no, i do not like to dance more to english music than spanish.

your turn, preston!

1. I've eaten steak with tobacco sauce. Not a typo for tabasco. It was tobacco sauce served at El Tovar at the Grand Canyon.

2. A elderly woman in a nursing home with arthritis so bad her hands were twisted and gnarled crocheted me a set of pot holders.

3. My dog has fleas. Don't worry, I have the stuff to get rid of them.

Three is right. My dog is too cool to get fleas. Kit Wins!

Nope, there are no fleas on Zeke!

1. I have had blond hair
2. I abhor the color pink
3. One of my favorite historical figures is Napolean Bonaparte I

number 1

Gotta be 3, the man was a monster (though I do love the portrayal by Rod Steiger)

2.

You're right Roger, it is definitely number three

1. I was born with black hair which fell out and grew back in blond and then it turned red
2. Yes, yes I do abhor it, though I've come to tolerate it a lot more than I used to. It is just a color after all

I love autobiography's...JFK Jr..Natalie Wood {true story] re: her death...

Oh, ho hum, it's my turn again…

1) I have had (almost) blond hair without recourse to cosmetic treatment

2) I was among the very first people in the world to try out Adobe Photoshop™
