Two Truths, One Lie.
I'm not a fan of football either, and my guess is the lie is number 1. I don't see you liking a cartoon where someone is made fun of. :D
Ding, ding, ding! You got it, Edward! That first cartoon was infuriating for me even though Tom is normally painted as the bad guy.
Did I get the reason correct too? Awesome!
I meant to say this earlier. I agree with Garrison. You can post next if you want!
Oh, I'm no good at these. Hmm, let's see...This year I have introduced my son to the following 80s cartoons:-
a) Duck Tales
b) ThunderCats
c) The Real Ghostbusters
Wow, do I give you one more guess at what the lie is? Or have I won?Okay, so The Real Ghostbusters was the one I really wanted the boy to watch, and he likes it. Currently he loooooves Duck Tales (the old one, we haven't tried the new one yet),but ThunderCats is one I'm saving for when he's a bit older.
You got me, Edward. You got me good! I know Thundercats has animated violence, so your little guy might not be old enough for it yet. At least I think that's the reasoning behind it. I'm not sure. Anyways, congratulations! You get a cookie! :)
Hooray! No, the reason I'm not showing him it is because he watches too many shows as it is! :D He kept wanting to watch old Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck cartoons from the bonus features on our Disney movies, so to make life easier I fished out Duck Tales!

Yay, Edward posted one. And it really was a good one too!
Okay I almost posted one I was gonna regret (don't ask, it's embarrassing, lol!) so here's a different one.Again if you've seen my first posts on this thread I unintentionally kept putting answers that were violent. Well... not that way but injuries that happened to me. Here goes!
These are real injuries I've had:
1. Having a pained knee where they thought I tore my meniscus!
2. Twisting my shoulder while falling down the stairs.
3. After many falls while ice skating having an injury in my side that was leaking.
I'd say number three is the lie. Unless you fell on something sharp, you wouldn't be bleeding that badly.
Sorry. It is always an unintentional tradition that when I post here I forget to respond back. I'm bad at this game, lol.Nope. The answer was 2 this time!
Not to get into too much detail let's just say that there was something leaking out of my side. The person who examined me at the doctor's office claimed that something sharp must have pierced my side and was pulled out though I don't remember anything of that happening. It was crazy because it sort of made sense; it turned out that ice rink was kind of a dangerous place because it was reputed some time after that of having gang activity.
Strangely I've fallen down the stairs but was completely unharmed by the incident.
Owie, owie, owie, owie! That sounds like the topic for a Poison Tongue Tales story! ;)
Yeah it was gross and crazy but it somehow didn't hurt. I was glad to go to see the doc about it though!
You're a tough cookie, CJ. You really are. :)
I don't know about that. If the wound hurt I would have been whining nonstop about it, lol!
I once screamed like I was being gutted alive because I banged my elbow on the wall. You've got me beat in the toughness department, CJ. Hehe!
I've whined endlessly while having a headache. I surely am not tough, Garrison. :)
When it comes to listening to scary videogame music, I’ll still listen to the following despite being creeped out by them:1. Demon’s Lair Theme from Breath of Fire
2. Dancing Calcobrena Theme from Final Fantasy IV
3. Neo Geegus Theme from World Heroes 2
Yes, I’m a wuss. Hehe!
Hmm... I wish I knew the tunes (though I have heard of at least 2 of the games!). So I will guess 2?
Ding, ding, ding! You got it, CJ! Of the three songs, that one creeps me out the most. These songs are on You Tube if you want to look them up.
And now that we're talking about fears I just thought about one involving childhood memories.These movies for one small reason or another scared me as a kid:
1. Batman Returns
2. Dennis the Menace
3. A Christmas Story
Dennis the Menace is the lie. Other than Switchblade Sam, there's not a whole lot scary about it.
Nope. I found that guy scary but what almost traumatized me the most was the post-credits scene. I thought Dennis had shoved the woman's face into that Xerox machine and it seemed like it was hurting her. Then the scene ended making me feel like "Was she okay? She never got out though..." 0_0 I was a delicate child lol!The answer was 1, Batman Returns. To this day I'll never understand how such a dark storyline in a film hadn't bothered me in a significant way.
Was Batman Returns the one where The Penguin was the lead villain? If so, then what disturbs me the most is how those cute little penguin-pies could ever blindly follow a monster like him.

The craziest thing I thought about the movie was just how they were so good at making the viewer pity the Penguin while hating just how dastardly his plans were at the same time. That takes some skill and Burton was great at taking the challenge in that aspect!
You should write a review for it, CJ. I'd love to read it! :)
Okay. And plus I have the Burton/Schumacher movie collection around so it will be worth a re-watch to later type out a review. Thanks for the suggestion Garrison!
One of my least favorite chores to do around the house is...1. Laundry
2. Washing Dishes
3. Mopping Up Dog Waste
Hi Garrison! Hope you're well!It's gotta be 3, the dog poop ....surely?
Hi there, Nicky-Pie! It's good to see you again! The lie is number one. Laundry is relatively easy to do while washing dishes hurts my lower back for some reason and mopping up dog crap...well...that's never fun to begin with. Hehe!
Of the three concerts I went to in August, my favorite opening acts from those shows were…1. Catfish and the Bottlemen (opened for Green Day)
2. Avenged Sevenfold (opened for Metallica)
3. Jimmy Eat World (opened for Incubus)
Hmm, I just have a feeling (but could be wrong of course!) number 3 is the lie...?
Bzzt! Number one is the lie. I didn't make it to the Green Day concert on time to see Catfish and the Bottlemen, so I can't form an opinion of someone whose music I've never heard. It was a trick question, I admit. Hehe!
One more of these and I swear I'll let someone else have a turn.A television logo I used to be afraid of as a kid was…
1. Merv Griffin Enterprises (Church Glass Variation) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bb-nW...
2. Gracie Films (Screaming Halloween Variation) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZX1z...
3. Screen Gems (“S from Hell” Variation) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kz2ib...

The second one??
Bzzt! The lie was number three, the Screen Gems "S from Hell" logo. It's actually pretty mild and I could never wrap my head around why so many logo enthusiasts found it scary as children.

Mine is... hm...
1. A few years ago i almost died unknowingly 10 times in the span of 3 months
2. The only fruit i eat is kiwifruit and only vegetable i eat is corn
3. I once collected and donated over 200 toys to children in the hospital at Christmas time
Hmm....I'm going to guess...number two is the lie!

(Price Is Right celebratory theme music plays over the speakers.) Yay! Woo-hoo!
1. The episode of Tom & Jerry where Tom was treated like a baby and laughed at by other cats.
2. The episode of Merry Melodies where the Abominable Snowman adopts Daffy and Bugs and calls them George.
3. The episode of Merry Melodies where the baby buzzard goes hunting for Bugs Bunny and says, “Oh, no, no, no, no, no!” a lot.
