In college you trained a squirrel to eat out of your hand and attack people on command. NO ONE WILL KNOW!!

Ann, that's a ferret.
I was in a class once where we each had to make three statements about ourselves, but one of the statements had to be false. The rest of the group had to guess which one was false.
They believed that I owned six cats. They didn't believe that I was a track star in high school.

Two truths and a lie. I kinda hate that game but can usually come up with random stuff. Like going skydiving.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Ha! I stumped my entire circle of extended co-workers during one of those getting-to-know-you-better exercises our former president was fond of by putting "I once won a free vacation in an athletic competition" on my slip. (The shooting accuracy competition I won in '97 where the prize was going to see a Washington Capitals home game.)
So it looks like the Impostor in the White House is throwing Bannon under the bus. I'll take it as a good thing because I don't think Ivanka and Jared are nearly as dangerous.
I'm torn because I really think it's out of line for family to be advising the President in any official capacity, but Ivanka and Jared are clearly the angels on Trump's shoulder opposite Bannon and the other scum he's surrounded himself with.

For those kind of icebreakers, I like to use "Faced down an army in medieval armor with a bow and arrow." Though anyone who's known me for a while generally knows that true. I need something boring and typical as my untruth, like having two kids or I was born in California.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I hate trying to come up with something interesting to say about myself, and little-known would definitely make it harder.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
We did something like that a few times in my office. I managed to stump them completely with (1) I was once interviewed on Entertainment Tonight and (2) my first job was being the Easter Bunny (both true).
