If this adventure with chain mail has taught me anything, 'tis that many of us here are having our first exposure to the internet, with all its amusements and pitfalls included. Thus, I thought it might be nice to introduce another 'getting to know each other' game that some of us might not know yet. This one won't involve pictures or ratings of attractiveness, not to worry.

This game is called 'two truths and a lie'. The premise is simple. You list three statements about yourself, two true and one false. Ideally they should all be similar levels of unbelievable. Then, other people respond to you to guess which one is the lie. We all learn a little about each other and have a bit of fun.

They do? Huh.

Before I say if you're right or wrong, what makes you think three?

I chose my answer via the tried and tested song of elimination called 'Eenie Meenie Miny Moe'.

Hahaha! Wish I could have seen that.

But sure, you're right, it's the lie. We actually use flamingos instead of pigeons.

Once more, the song prevails.

I do not know what a flamingo looks like.

[here we go again: seasons edition]

They're pink, and they have long necks and long skinny legs. They like hanging around in lakes and rivers and stuff.
fishfearme: (huh?)

Hey, that actually looks pretty close!

Except we tie the letters to their upper legs so they don't get wet, they don't carry it in their wings. Then they can fly to whoever the letter is meant for.
fishfearme: (sad)

Oh, so they don't run fast?

[Even through text, he sounds disappointed.....]

Actually, they can run pretty fast, yeah. But that's just before they take off to fly.
fishfearme: (small smile)

[!!!]

I see. I'm glad my gut feeling was correct. I wonder if there are flamingos in one of the seasonal segments.

The summer segment would be your best bet. They like hot climates. If I ever see one, I'll let you know.
