ever think of posting something on du, that is true, and then realize that people

[La Lioness Priyanka]

will think you are lying?

a friend of mine made a comment about her republican father and a button he was wearing, on my facebook page. i was going to write about it, and then realized people are just going to say i am lying.

i thought that was kinda funny. not the button wearing, but that people would think i am lying, when i am not.

1. What was the button/comment?

But no, nothing I ever have to say is ever all that unbelievable, haha.

2. check your pm

[skygazer]

3. Yeah, I've had that happen

My life sounds like a really bad novel sometimes and I know that people really don't believe half the things I tell them about even though they're all true.

Which is actually more funny than not. :hi:

6. I disagree.

Your life would make an awesome Lifetime movie.
:P

My older sister says that our family belongs on Jerry Springer's show. I told her that we don't fight and wear hoochie clothes -- we're more like a family reality show on the Discovery channel, an amalgam of "Jon & Kate plus 8" and "Dirty Jobs."

8. Now you've made me morbidly curious.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

11. do you have facebook. i could friend you and you could see it for yourself

[DarkTirade]

12. Yes, and I haven't checked it in forever... :P I really should.

Hmm... now I gotta figure out how to find the link to my profile... I did it once before. Now I can't remember how.

I think http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=679507792">this is the link. If it doesn't work, PM me and I'll just send you my full name so you can search for me or something. :)

13. Is there any way to avoid using ones own name as a user name on that?

Cuz, I go on My Space sometimes.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

15. i dont really knwo. i will pm you in a sec

[DarkTirade]

16. Worked, and I see the comment there.

:hi:

[SallyMander]

22. I friended you

Now i'm gonna try to find Lioness :D

17. The original point of the site was as a school networking thing

so they used real names rather than screennames.

They don't like it if you use a fake name, but for the most part they have no way of knowing unless it's something very silly.

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. I often think of that when I post something.

Because sometimes life is stranger than fiction. My life, this past year, would not be believed by most here.

[Zuiderelle]

10. Yes.

That's why I rarely bother.

[Westegg]

14. Never be afraid of the truth. I once was.

[NewJeffCT]

18. what was the comment?

but, I've started to post things before, but thought better of it and deleted the post.

[otherlander]

19. I posted something true on DU once

Guess everyone thought I was lying...

[Chan790]

20. Oh, don't be a tease...

okay, be a tease...but not about this. :)

Now you've piqued everybody's curiosity, just post it. It's like when somebody says "I've got a secret." You know they're doing it so that everybody will wonder what it is. :I want a pout emoticon I can use sardonically:

[ThomCat]

21. A bunch of times.

There are a bunch of weird topics, experiences, opinions and such I've self-censored because I figured truth sounded more outrageous than fiction. :P

The best stories should be saved for meetups anyway. :)

[Haole Girl]

23. Yep

I have little doubt some of the more interesting things I could post about
my life would be completely unbelievable to the majority of people here
... or anywhere, for that matter!
