Constraints
- All three statements must be conversation-worthy.
- The lie should be plausible, not absurd.
- Each truth must come with a story you're ready to tell.
Hints
- The game isn't about winning. It's a story-delivery mechanism.
- Your best truths are things people wouldn't guess about you. Yes, you have some. Dig.
- A mundane-sounding lie ('I've never seen Titanic') is harder to spot than a wild one.
