try this one...

1) I was the lead guitarist in an all-girl heavy-metal band.
2) I have tasted cat food.
3) I got an A+ in calculus.

You have not tasted cat food, you've merely been subjected to its pungent odors.
 
  • #157
7 minutes, and no answer.

Lie. I see you as a drummer (the drummers get all the action - good rhythm :wink:).

I just had a theme going for the set of statements. Maybe that's why I forgot to make one of them false.

Anyway, I adore hypnagogue and loseyourname. This other person just presses some different buttons. :smile: Happy? You'll never guess anyway.
 
  • #168
Nice guesses, y'all! #1 is false for my statements. I was actually the bass player in that band. And the cat-food I sampled was Meow Mix. (I just had to know!)

Not without a list to guess from. No more than 20 names, please.

Hm, I think this one's false. You weren't banned; your account just didn't work for some mysterious reason.
 
  • #173
hmm... only 27,251 more usernames to cycle through!

ah just kidding.

  • #176
A quick google reveals there is a gurkhawarhorse listed as a mentor at www.warhorses.com, so the lie must be #1.
 
  • #177
#1 is lie.
 
  • #178
i was not banned but gurkhawarhorse didnt work for few days as HRW said

It was extremely bland. Mostly, I attribute it to the lack of salt. Of course, kitties would not have developed a taste for that. But I also couldn't detect a familiar or appealing flavor - the smell was a little bit like fresh clay. I was genuinely interested in how something formulated specifically for a feline palate would taste to a human being. You would think it would be more similar since kitties always gobble up table scraps and milk and things that we like!
 
  • #180
Hmmm...I'll have to try some. I don't like that clay smell part. May have to look around for something more appealing for the kitties.
