Okay.
#TwoTruthsOneLie
I got drunk with Alison Moyet
I fell over Darryl Hall's boot
I sold VHS movies to Tom Kiefer
Choose the lie.
A photo that Ms. Moyet clearly was like, Really? After my roommate asked for one, and me in the back overcompensating because I hate having my picture taken. Also I had a nice buzz.
I think that after you got drunk with Alison you fell over Darryl Hall's boot (on a drunk dare).
THE LIE: CINDERELLA MOVIES
@Shelter But I want them all to be true
@KreepyKimSofia
Honestly I do, too.
@Shelter I'm going to listen to Upstairs at Eric's while I imagine how much fun you had drinking with Alison and then dancing, which is when you fell over Daryl's boot
@KreepyKimSofia
That's an excellent thing to listen to at any time.
@Shelter Looks like my nerd-incel buddy. We didn't have that term yet but the his picture should be next to the definition.
Yeesh
Gentleman Creep.
@Shelter because he was actually a ghost *gasp*
Snort
@Shelter Upstairs At Eric's FTW!!!!
@coolserenity
Yissss
@Shelter If you’re really from Pottstown, are you really from Philly? Hmmm… 😂
@Shelter If you got drunk with Alison, I wanna kiss you! 😁
@see_the_sus
*presents cheek*
@Shelter I AM SO FUCKING JEALOUS!!! Where was this?
@see_the_sus
J.C. Dobbs in Philadelphia.
@Shelter and I was wrong. Don't know why but Hall's boot seemed a feasible answer at the time.
@Coffee_and_Salt
Because I am clumsy AF.
@Shelter i mean, i wasn't gonna say it all out loud like that.
@Shelter also, because memes, all further usage of AF means "AS FORETOLD," in all caps, just like that.
This is probably true in my case.
@Coffee_and_Salt years ago I saw 16 get on the arm of the sofa, look at an empty box in front of the sofa, get down, move the box closer, get back on the arm, and I yelled, ABSOLUTELY NOT.
"WHAT??"
"You're planning to jump into the box to slide across the floor, but it won't work. You'll tip backwards and slam your head into the floor."
"How do you know that?"
"Because I used to do that same shit!"
"Oh."
@Shelter AF.
@Coffee_and_Salt
Remember the Hoppity Horse?
I bounced down cement front steps on one and landed on my head.
@Shelter is it accident prone if you chose to be a dare devil?
@Coffee_and_Salt
I'm accident prone even just being alive.
My husband keeps track of the ways I have gotten hurt.
Somewhere there's a picture of what I did to my eye socket getting up to pee one night.
@Coffee_and_Salt
When I was 2 I leaned against the porch railing and the slats busted apart and I fell straight into a firethorn bush.
@Shelter oh the cringe of pain!
I should get that on a shirt.
@Shelter friend of mine has one that says "all gas, no brakes." kinda getting a similar feel here.
@Coffee_and_Salt
Oh no, I was still half asleep, so I couldn't even stop my fall.
I have a tendency to fall asleep wearing my glasses. My face hit the floor and the right eye piece and bridge piece cut up my brow and socket.
I'd caught my foot in the blanket.
@Shelter well that blanket was a right bastard for doing that.
@Coffee_and_Salt
Then there was the holidays before my mom had moved here, 13 was an infant, and I heard him shrieking in the middle of the night. I, still asleep, jumped up and ran. Slammed straight into a wall, bounced off, broke my toe, hit the floor, yelled, I'M ALRIGHT! and hobbled in to help him.
My mom was like, "Still?"
@Shelter "after all this time...?"
and mom mode is serious mode.
@Coffee_and_Salt
Look she got stung on the tongue once because she didn't check her beer before she took a sip, so she had no place to say anything.
@Shelter so you come by it honestly is what i'm hearing.
@Coffee_and_Salt
Oh god I haven't even gotten into my dad.
@Shelter and you never stood a change. stumbled a chance maybe.
Ending my poll now because I hope to not be online much tonight.
Unfortunately I have never been in the same room as Mr. Hall nor his boots in my life.
Hung out with Alison Moyet after a show in Philly once, and Tom Kiefer used to shop at the Tower Records/Video I worked at in Cherry Hill, NJ.
