The lying game

The Lying Game (Braid_ged)
--------------------------

I have had a great reaction from this game even from HBs who didn't end up digging me.

Braid_ged : Hey, are you a good liar?

HB : what ?

Braid_ged : can you lie, like (turns to other HB), is she a good liar?

HB_Other : yes! she is a fantastic liar! / No, she can't lie.

Braid_ged : Is that right? well lets see. Ok, you are going to tell me three things.     One of them will be a lie. Ok ?

HB : Ok.

Braid_Ged : right.. you are going to tell me.... umm.. a place you have always     wanted to visit. Ummm a shop you like going to... and.... the name of     the first guy you slept with, or girl...

(HB raises eyebrow)

Braid_ged : ok guy. So that's three things, place to visit, shop you like and first     guy you slept with. Ok?

(the whole table is now looking at her)

HB : ok.

Braid_ged : ok... hold on, take it slow, think about it you have to try and be as     convincing as you can...

she tells.. you try and pick the lie... you get the idea.

Then usually someone goes "MY Turn!" and if they say to you "Your turn" you go "Are you kidding, I am not playing some silly lie game", then turn to your wing "Yeah like _I_ and going to play some lie game, these people are crazy" [<- mini cold-read].

Then go get a drink or something and let them think about what a fun guy you are.

Key Takeaways from The Comic Toolbox by John Vorhaus Comedy is truth and pain. The truth must speak directly to the audience while the pain is an exaggeration of it that will make it comedic. Comic premise is the gap between comic reality and real reality. Think of what is expected and then insert the opposite. Comedy deals with people's expectations, disrupting them. Three levels of comic conflict: 1. Man versus nature (Global conflict) 2. Man versus man (interpersonal or local conflict). Comic character versus normal character or comic characters in opposition. 3. Man versus himself (inner conflict) COMIC CHARACTERS: 1. Comic perspective: Unique way of looking at his world. 2. Flaws: distance the character from the audience. 3. Humanity: Closeness between the character and the audience. 4. Exaggeration: On all three: the comic perspective, flaws and humanity. COMIC TOOLS: - Clash of context: Takes something out of its usual place and sticks it where it doesn...
