Two Truths & One Lie: Guess My Ancestor!

[gurkhawarhorse]

well #2 could be but has she never asked to go out of the classroom? not even for a pee? she mush have done it, at least once.

 

[Lisa!]

Yeah, Zooby! I dislike bananas but I used to eat them! :yuck:

#1 is false

That's right! Only once when I was 8 and didn't do anything wrong!

 

[Lisa!]

Oops, I meant "been asked to leave the classroom"

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

yay! this is my first right guess.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

Oops, I meant "been asked to leave the classroom"

oops, still i got the right one. yay!

 

[Lisa!]

Not really! Because I know you misunderstood me! Anyway Congratulations!

 

[honestrosewater]

Where did everyone go? You can't handle the truth?

 

[Monique]

ok, here we go again:

1. I sent my parents on an all-expenses paid vacation
2. my vacation next week is going to be crappy
3. a perfect vacation is relaxing on the beach

1. Truth
2. Blatant, unashamed lie
3. True

 

[Smurf]

I've never done Shrooms
I've never done Marijuana
I've never drank alcohol

 

[pattylou]

Easy Peasy, Smurf.

here's mine:

1. I've been clinically dead.

2. My sister's in the space program.

3. I've seen UFO's.

 

[Smurf]

3 is false, but you probably think it's true, and 2 is also false.

What's the answer then if it's so easy?

 

[EnumaElish]

You've seen UFO's -- NOT!

 

[pattylou]

Hey - this is fun.

the answer is you have done shrooms but nothing else because shrooms are natural where you grew up and you're an environmantalist.

 

[Evo]

For pattylou I say #1.

Everyone has seen a UFO. UFO's don't have to be extraterrestrial.

those are good btw

 

[Smurf]

Hey - this is fun.

the answer is you have done shrooms but nothing else because shrooms are natural where you grew up and you're an environmantalist.

Actually the shrooms one is the only thing that's true on that list. :tongue2: :tongue: :rofl:

 

[pattylou]

Well, then, you cheated. It's called two truths and a lie.

 

[pattylou]

Evo, you're too smart. :)

 

[EnumaElish]

Evo, you're too smart. :)

Do you mean, she is very smart because she knew? Or is she too smart as in "you would've known if you didn't have to be too smart, lady"?

 

[pattylou]

Wouldn't you like to know?

 

[Smurf]

Well, then, you cheated. It's called two truths and a lie.

That doesn't make you any less wrong.

 

[whozum]

This sentence is true
This sentence is false
One of these sentences is false

 

[Smurf]

This sentence is false

False. Far too easy whozum, come on your not even trying. yes I'm aware of the logical paradox

 

[pattylou]

That doesn't make you any less wrong.

Does so. Shrooms are a separate set from (alcohol and weed.) If you have to pick one, you pick shrooms. If you have to pick two, it's alcohol and weed.

 

[Smurf]

What? Patty that doesn't make any sense.

 

[Moonbear]

Okay, I'll do a simple one:
1) I've lived in New Jersey.
2) I've lived in Pennsylvania.
3) I've lived in Michigan.

 

[Smurf]

2) I've lived in Pennsylvania.
3) I've lived in Michigan.

It's one of these 2, I think i'll go with Michigan as the lie.

 

[pattylou]

What? Patty that doesn't make any sense.

You're probably right.

I was talking about availability.

 

[Moonbear]

It's one of these 2, I think i'll go with Michigan as the lie.

Nope, Pennsylvania was the lie. I skipped right over that state. :rofl:

 

[EnumaElish]

Nope, Pennsylvania was the lie. I skipped right over that state. :rofl:

Oh, I knew it was PA if it wasn't MI... or NJ.

 

[EnumaElish]

This sentence is true
This sentence is false
One of these sentences is false

Is there a logical solution to this? If #2 is false, then it's true. OTOH if #2 is true then it's false.

 

[whozum]

False. Far too easy whozum, come on your not even trying. yes I'm aware of the logical paradox

Funny you say that.

Is there a logical solution to this? If #2 is false, then it's true. OTOH if #2 is true then it's false.

Thats one of the solutions, the cool thing is, all 3 can be the false one.

First way, #1 is false,
then #2 can be true, and #3 is true because #1 is false.

Second way, #2 is false, #1 is true, so #3 is true because #2 is false.

Third way #3 is false, which means the first two are true.

HA Smurf, guess YOU are the one not even trying!

 

[Smurf]

HA Smurf, guess YOU are the one not even trying!

you don't review your posts do you? :tongue:

 

[mattmns]

whozum, according to your logic, smurf is correct. He chose the right answer, as they were all right

 

[EnumaElish]

If #2 is false, then it's true. OTOH if #2 is true then it's false. Doesn't that imply a contradiction either way? I wish HRW was here to shine her candlelight on this.
