Lies Girls Tell

by Brian on May 28, 2009

in Girls,Twitter

So I log on to Twitter this morning, and the top trending topic is “lies girls tell”.

I found this one easy to join in on – these are all things I’ve actually had girls say to me.

My gang friends are holding your parents hostage right now. #liesgirlstell

I can make trees grow with my mind. Just did again – a beautiful redwood in Northern Iowa. #liesgirlstell

Will Smith is my dad. #liesgirlstell

Inside my heart is another smaller heart that powers my main heart. They both love you. #liesgirlstell

Sure it’s not…right. #liesgirlstell RT @kristinbrennan having a broken pinky toe is not conducive to wearing heels in soho.

Everything I’m saying right now is actually a recording. #liesgirlstell

You’ll never see me with my socks off because I’m invisible from the ankles down. #liesgirlstell

I hold the world record for lowest resting heart-rate. #liesgirlstell

The gravity in my house is broken. #liesgirlstell

I’m not a ghost. #liesgirlstell

My pet alligator that I keep unleashed won’t try to bite your left hand off. #liesgirlstell

I could do this all day, and if I really wanted to get nuts, I’d go ahead with #liesbrianhastoldtogirls, which would actually make a pretty incredible 5000-page book.

For example, I spent an entire date explaining to a girl that I was a robot, for no other reason than to see if I could go the whole time without letting the joke go. After awhile, she played along, and we had a lot of fun.

And you know what? It worked.

That’s right – I got some hand-holding action FOR REAL.

(Follow me on Twitter here.)
(Download the first 55 pages of my epic, pretentious, and stupid book, Prelude to a Super Airplane, here – it’s available in paperback, or iPhone/Kindle for only 1.99.)

    In the days of yore when I was plying my trade as a single man I once told a girl I was an accountant to get her to go home with me. Not because accountants are cool but to see just how boring of a job I could have and still get the girl. That's how attractive I am or was? Who knows.

    In the next trial I told a girl that I was a male secretary. That didn't work so well.

    Another time I told a girl that I had six bunnies tethered together at my apartment in order to get her back there. When we showed up and there were no bunnies I had to fake being upset about it which lead to a great return on my fake bunny investment. When all else fails, go with fake bunnies….or squirrels.

    While at the mall during my senior year in high school, two elementary school girls, thinking I was Justin Timberlake, came and asked me for my autograph. I signed it.

    my dad used to always say he could've been Eric Clapton. i don't really know how that works, but i believed it.

    when i was in elementary school, my friends and i convinced a new kid that my dad was Clint Eastwood.

    Edward Norton was my cousin for a while when i was in undergrad.

    I told a guy in a bar once that my friend Gemma was my wife. his response was a weird disgusted face just before he walked away. i thought this was an odd response, but i accomplished my goal.

    that little robot story is kind of amazing and i hope it's true. my current iPhone background is a drawing of a robot with hearts around it and it says “i love robots”. this is not a lie and i can provide proof. (also, for the record, it's been there for a couple weeks… i didn't just change it because i read your story. i swear.)

    “All hail LeBron, for he has proven in this series why he is the greatest player in the NBA right now. As much as he is fawned over by the media and the league, you have to admit the man is phenomenal.”

    Each game is a definitive and eternal statement – one that lasts until the next game. Newspapers would be wise to take the funds used on sports columnists and use it on some actual investigative reporting.

    Did Bill Livingston write a new “LeBron is so good” piece this morning?
