Classic icebreaker for anyone just joining, share two statements about yourself, one completely true and one a convincing lie, and let everyone else guess which is which. Keep it lighthearted, nothing needs to be dramatic or deep. Just a fun way to get to know some new faces around here

Three former world record holders in completely unrelated fields have genuinely crossed my path, or I once accidentally joined a marathon while just trying to cross the street. Guess which
Four instruments get played reasonably well by me, or I've never once been able to whistle in my entire life. One of these is definitely true. Have fun guessing
Two hours once got lost wandering my own neighborhood despite living there for years, or I have a genuinely photographic memory for phone numbers.
One of these has embarrassed me multiple times. The other one I just made up entirely
Eleven different countries have each seen me eat something genuinely unusual, or I've never left my home country at all. Guess away
