Not a lie. I don't have your phone number, but if pressed I could probably figure it out. The interwebz makes everything possible for the motivated and wily user.

And while this seems like a troll post, I'll get some popcorn too and watch it play out. Good fodder for the forum's comic genius's. Please continue.
 
off topic..........sorry about being a noob,but...what does "on deck" mean?
i think "fermenting" would be whats in the fermentor and "drinking" would be what's on the taps right?
Fermenting: Belgian-American Stout, Winter Lager
Drinking: Rye Lager, None More Black RIS, American Stout
On Deck: Pilsner or Vienna Lager

Obviously, a blown Reyes hammy wouldn't effect you drastically.

It references the baseball term "on-deck" which means "next batter"... anyways, something does sound fishy in all of that conversation. I agree that if this is the line drawn in the sand... see a counselor, not a bunch of brew heads on a beer forum ;).

oh, i get it now thank for the reply!!
 
thier were alot of my son friends coming over for the party so i though it would be nice(for the kids sake....well for me to..lol) "think of the children!!!"
 
Nothing says "familly holiday fun" like Florida, mailmen, strip clubs, fireworks and lies.
 
YOU ARE MISSING THE PART AT THE END WHERE SHE SAY'S "OH ACTUALLY I CAN't GET IT ON FACEBOOK. SO U SAY ITS TECHNICALLY NOT A LIE!!....NICE TO KNOW....SO NEXT TIME SOMEONE CHOPS THIER FINGER OFF IN MY HOUSE OR SOMETHING AND ASK ME TO DRIVE THEM TO THE HOSPITAL I WILL SAY "SORRY, I DONT HAVE THE KEY'S TO MY CAR ON ME" BECAUSE TECHICALLY I DONT(THEY ARE ON THE COFFE TABLE). EVEN THOUGH I KNOW THEY ARE TWO STEPS AWAY ON THE COFFEE TABLE...AND I CAN JUST LET THEM BLEED TO DEATH AND TECHICALLY IM NOT LIYING AND THIS IS AN HONEST THING TO DO!!!....THANKS FOR THE ADVICE!!!

It sounds like you're the one with issues and not her. I strongly suggest you knock it off here though, because you're only making yourself look bad.
 
sorry about the caps lock ....i need a new keyboard .....the caps just come one without touching the caps key. but really i have learned alot from you guys today....so if my wife asks me "did you just come home from a strip club?" i can say "no" because the sign outside the place reads"joe's cabaret" not "joe's strip club" and technically im not liying....this is great news!!or "were you doing that lady yesterday" i can say "no honey" because it was on sunday not yesterday....so technically im not liying.....thats great, why didnt i think of this before?

You honestly think this is on-par with "i can get her number off of facebook. Oh wait, no i can't, I just remembered that she changed her number a month ago"?

I understand that you have a hard time trusting her because of whatever it was that happened. But I do not see why you consider this to be such an unbelievable scenario.

Side note, I once sent a text to a friend based on his number in facebook, asking if he wanted to go to hooters for a football game. He responded with a blank text message. I responded "you answer texts like my mom". He called. I picked up the phone and said "hey, what's up, tom?" he said "this is reverend bob, why the heck are you texting me about hooters and texting like your mom?"

So yeah, I totally believe in the unreliability of facebook for telephone numbers.
 
Well to close the thread out ........i know that this forum isnt really the place for this subject but i dont want to take action before i get other input.....and i know u guys will give truthful input because you dont know niether of us... ITS HARD TO GET HONEST OPINION FROM PEOPLE LIKE FRIENDS AND FAMILY...I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF OTHER PEOPLE WOLUD CONSIDER THIS A LIE.......AND OVIOUSLY I THINK THAT U GUYS AGREE THAT ITS "FISHY" OR "B.S".....THAT SAID I CAN NOT BE WITH SOMEONE THAT CONTINUALLY LIE'S AND DOES NOT EVEN KNOW THAT THEY ARE LIYING!!!

A: Not a lie.

2: You may want to spray your cap lock button with some WD40.

D: If this is the biggest thing you have to worry about in your life, you should consider yourself truly blessed.
 
So I brewed a batch of beer last weekend and its fermenting now...

Oh wait, my bad, this must be the soap opera forum...?

Fun to read though...
 
I started skimming only after the first page or two, and I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything, but do I have this right:

OP asked for the phone number of an acquaintance who supplies illegal fireworks. Wife employs a diversion and doesn't provide that number. OP doesn't get illegal fireworks.

You, Sir, are a master when it comes to the subtle art of subtext.

A romantic tragedy in three parts.

Part One: The Deception
 
I have found, in most cases, all people are, to a certain degree, not exactly what the other person wants and admires in a relationship. Sometimes the small things add up to cause disruption and animosity. People can't let things go. That #$% digs at your mind until you start seeing all kinds of bad things in the other person. It probably goes both ways, for right or for wrong.

There HAS to be more to this, and at any rate, getting a simple yes/no answer for your question would be impossible because we just don't know if she is lying. She might have known about the phone number, or she might be telling the truth.

As long as we're supposing, though, it sounds to me like she didn't want you playing with fireworks. Women can be that way. And possibly the reason she didn't want to flat out say that she didn't want you to play with fireworks is because she knows it will start an argument. "Some people" seem to want to go off on the simplest of things. IYKWIM...

If you still want our opinions, please be advised that almost all of us couldn't care any less, and a lot of us are just EAGER to make jokes and snide comments.

She probably doesn't want you to know she knows the number because she is actually having an affair with the friend's husband and she thinks that if she lets you know she knows his number you will figure out she is having an affair! The truth is obvious if you really look very hard and use your imagination.

Pretty much. That and cabarets are not strip clubs on sundays.

How can you speak of truth, when you have missed the OBVIOUS truth that what is really happening is that she is not merely having an affair with the friend's husband, but rather a threesome with both the friend AND the friends husband!?!

"Yeah, its a tragedy"

"Yeah, it involves scandalous lies"

"Yep, has a threesome"

It never fails to surprise me how HBT'ers will take something and run with it so very, very far.
