1) I invented pet rocks, the internal combustion engine, gatling guns, pop-up ads, and cassette tapes.
2) This hair color is natural.
3) I once had an eight-foot-tall bodyguard.

...I don't even know what half the things in the first one are.

[Actually the only thing he even sort of recognizes is the internal combustion engine.]

[scourgingstars]

One's useless, the second's self-explanatory as an engine, third is an active annoyance, and the last one is obsolete technology.

[bloodyashes]

...Technically that's still missing one, but I assume the guns are also fairly self-explanatory.

[shineinside]

It has to be the first one, right?

[scourgingstars]

Sometimes, the most outrageous statement is simply too outlandish to be a lie. That one is the truth.

[and tabata can fight me for it, tbqh.]

[shineinside]

What, really?! You should apologize for the pop-up ads!

[raygunner]

Gatling guns? Really?

[scourgingstars]

What, you expected the world to use single-shot flintlock forever? I think not.

[raygunner]

Not at all. I'm merely a bit surprised you're staking claim on inventing it.

And popup ads? Truly a blight upon humankind.

[covertizer]

If two is true, then I'm jealous. That looks like it should've come out of a bottle.

[scourgingstars]

Asking what a great philosopher no doubt once posed, 'is that your final answer'?

[covertizer]

That depends on if your bodyguard was human or not.

[hellawrath]

Hey so did your parents have blue and red hair, or...?

Wait, shit, are you descended from clowns?

[scourgingstars]

You know, I don't remember, but I'm reasonably certain my parents were neither rainbow-colored nor were they clowns.

[hellawrath]

Okay but that doesn't clear up literally anything about number two?

[want_to_belong]

There is no way you invented pet rocks.

[Yes, of all those things that's the most unbelievable one.]

[scourgingstars]

If that's what you think, you're about to be quite surprised.

[want_to_belong]

Come on, that's gotta be a lie. That's like saying you invented the post-it note.

[crosslaced]

... what's a gatling gun?

[scourgingstars]

A firearm that shoots quite an abundance of projectiles very, very quickly.

You know, for when you either need to kill one very large thing or many smaller things in a hurry.

[crosslaced]

Hypothetically, could you reinvent one here? You know, in theory, a thought experiment.

[big guns]

[growingpains]

First one!

[scourgingstars]

I'm afraid not, my dear. That's true.

[growingpains]

What, really? You don't look that old.
