This evening, as we do each week, Wayne Houchin and myself were discussing JB's personal life. After a 3 hour conversation, we decided that we needed some help solving the following logic problem that is, I swear, 100% based on fact.
1) JB claims to have a girlfriend.
2) Houchin and I don't believe him.
3) The reason that we don't believe him is that he is lying. Here's why:
4) We've known JB for a while now and have never once seen his girlfriend in person. She's always conveniently "studying abroad in Milan" or some crap like that.
5) Neither of us has actually spoken with her on the phone.
6) Sometimes, when we call him he'll say something like, "Oh, I'm talking to my girlfriend Katie right now. Hang on. Let me get her off the other line." Then he puts his phone on mute for a few seconds pretending to be on the other line. "Okay, I'm back. Sometimes Karen and I talk on the phone because that's what people in a relationship do because I'm really in a relationship with her. Sometime maybe you'll meet Kristy in person because she really does exist."
6) When we asked to see a picture of her, JB showed us a picture of some girl he probably printed off the internet. He wasn't even in the picture because he was too lazy to Photoshop himself in. Step up your game, we see right through you.
7) He went to "Milan" (read: he stayed at home and called us from his Skype number) recently to visit his imaginary girl. This was an obvious lie because when he called us from "Milan," he was still speaking English and not "Milan Land Language."
You do the math. And now that there is actually a poll, you should vote in it.
