The Beauty of Mendacity

In truth, I've delved into some clickbait and have gone too far down those rabbit holes, knowing that the stories were completely fabricated. Just absolute garbage. The kind of stories that have the poetic justice one can only imagine when creating fictitious arguments in the shower. The subject matter varies; it could be a revelation of infidelity, a parent's realization of their wrong doing to their child, or just someone getting the last laugh in ritual consumerism behavior. It's a sin I certainly plan on accounting for. As for self-aggrandizement, I just can't. So, in lieu of making up some fantastic life achievements on a semi-regular basis in this blog, I'll give you, the reader, the opportunity to call me out on some bullshit. Here are some options of items that appear in my daily life. Two of these are falsehoods, the rest, true. None are that interesting. Perhaps some are worth a chuckle. Much deserves pity. Guess both correct falsehoods correctly and I'll determine a gift for you.
If I'm playing any video game, it's Angry Birds 2.
I have to drive everyday for a dose of sanity and understanding of the physical world.
Meditation happens twice a day.
I've ditched Axe Body Spray for essential oils.
I gift styrofoam and packing materials to my artist friends.
I practice music while watching speed runs of video games.
If I go outside, it's to harvest food and trap/re-home squirrels that try to eat it.
If I'm listening to music, it's the golden age of gangsta rap '88-'92.
My sleeping ambience is a combination of a HEPA fan, CPAP machine and binaural beats new age music.
My evening cocktail is The Yankee Candle: 1/2 Cinnamon Whiskey, 1/2 Horchata liquor, on the rocks.
Best of luck.
