Two truths and a lie

Post Reply New Topic

1. I had a bunny named Oliver when I was eight. I got him from the Easter bunny. He was black and white but he didn't like carrots.

2. I had a white goldfish named Fluffy and an orange goldfish named Snowflake. This was during my first year of Uni.

3. I had a blue budgie bird and when he died we had a funeral procession all down my street. He was laid to rest in a tissue box under my bedroom window.

#3. There was no funeral procession.

Oh yes there was ... not with cars , but with a line of my brother's friends and my cousins. We were copying a funeral we had seen on TV. Someone even played a drum. My budgie was in a blue tissue box with a blue tissue for his blanket. My dad even carved a headstone for him.

My lie was 1. The bunny story was true except that his name wasn't Oliver. My bunny's name was Hoppy. I had a bird named Oliver but that was ten years later.

I had a budgie/parakeet named Oscar.


1. I got him when I was 6 years old.

2. He only lived three years after I got him.

3. I won him in an Easter party waffle. Even though I'm half Jewish LOL

2. I think he lived a shorter life, somehow

Nope....Oscar lived 6 more years!! !! !

1. You got him at a different age.

Nope. I was 6.

The lie is that he only lived three years after I got him.

(oh my goodness, I'm so silly tonight...) sorry

lol

blame it on the illness....

1. I had a gerbil who liked to swing across the top bars of the cage (like money bars). She did so many acrobatic tricks I named her Trixie.

2. Trixie got lost for over a month, but we eventually found her in a saucebin under the kitchen sink (alive).

3. I wanted a pet mouse, but my mother said no.

I’m thinking #3.

No, my lie is #1. Trixie was a hamster, not a gerbil.

2 is true.

3 is true. I wasn't allowed to have a mouse or a gerbil because of their long tails, so I got a fluffy hamster (no tail).

I used to think that hamsters and gerbils were the same.

I never liked either. I was too fraidy cat...

I didn't really like the long tail ones but my friends had them so I did inquire. I liked my hamster(s). I had several over the years. They looked like little golden fuzzballs. No tails (tiny stubby tails).

1. We had a monkey on our boat.

2. We had ducklings in an incubator on our boat.

3. We had a baby fox on our boat.

#3. No baby fox.

You're right!

1. My Welsh cousin chased me with a worm when I was five; I went so hysterical that I hit him. He learned quickly.

2. My cousin from Philadelphia was born on the exact same day that I was (same year). She is the 180 opposite of me in every way.

3. My cousin from Arizona no longer lives in Arizona, and I'm not even sure what country she is in. I haven't heard anything about her since the 1980s.
