I Am A Liar

Before I confess my sins, let me just say that the lying wasn’t really deliberate on my part. Okay, that’s lying as well. What I mean to say is that I didn’t intend to come across as arrogant or better than my sister geeks or - oh, screw it, let me just tell the story.

A few posts back, I sent y’all over to the Notpron site to check out the Hardest Riddle On The Internet. Now, *in my own defense*, it was the wee hours of morn when I wrote the post, and it had been awhile since I played the game. I honestly couldn’t remember the last level I got to, though I knew it was the weird blue picture with some pipes and an Elvis song or something. Anyway, it was late (did I mention it was late?), and I just posted that it was level 9 because I knew it was in the single digits and I couldn’t remember *exactly* what it was.

Also, I didn’t think my Thursday Night Beer Friends were going to gang up on me and call me a poser and a liar and other choice names not be printed here, but I promised one Nicki Matushak (Who Lives In A Tangerine House) that I would print a formal apology for lying here on the blog.

There. I lied. And We Who Game take these things very seriously, so I will deduct 100 Geek Points from my overall score (which has got to be in the high hundreds by now, and I’m *not* lying about that). Oh, and I’m sorry, since apparently apologizing means actually writing those words. (Weird technicality.)

There, Nicki. I hope you’re happy, but you’ve still got to make martinis next week.

    I’ve very proud of you, M! Now I just need to find a way to get mentioned…

  2. Nicki Says:

    In full disclosure, Nisu was giving you just as much crap as I was and deserves full mention. Of course I didn’t know that I would get a *full* name mention. I checked and this is now my top Google hit.

    But most importantly, my house is so *not* tangerine; clearly it is burnt calamine. If you do not so agree no martinis for you!
