1.

It was Topper.

NERK. That one was right, though to be honest it was more a half-pint of Coke chat than a blokey full-on pint discussion. He was very agreeable.

#3 is the no-no. It was only in my county that I was top, which is much less of an achievement considering we're pretty much all descended from the same four people. Farmers, no less.

2. My lowest adult BMI has been 17.5, the highest has been 32.

Sounds like you and your BMI have been on some... black adventures together.  I don't know how this came to pass, but I can't imagine it was very pleasant.  So: my sympathies, and I hope you're doing alright now.

Thanks. Basically I have learned that you have to be nice to your body, because where the fuck else are you going to live??

1.) I haven't read a book in months.

2.) I have been engaged, but never married.

3.) My parents were denied visas to Australia in the early 1970s because they thought my parents were an interracial couple (my mom is blonde-haired and blue-eyed and my dad is Sicilian with dark skin and wore his naturally curly dark hair in an Afro at the time).

I will guess at #2 being untrue.  Can't say 3 because of the details.  You seem to be pretty busy with work so 1 is pretty plausable.  I'm familiar with the fact that when you're in a medicine-related field, there is not very much time to fit fiction into your schedule, so this will surprise me if it is the false one.

However there's plenty of time to spend on the internet, because that doesn't count, obviously.

That's right, we don't care for that kind of shit 'round here.

Actually I'm going to call this one the lie just because I'm willing to bet you've changed the details.

Damn! My previous sneaky ways have foiled me...#3 is all true.

Actually the lie is #1. I've read a couple books, including an awesome one about Proust that kellichou got me.

I think these are all true, and the lie is that you changed the order.

1. My B.A. is in Pure Mathematics
2. I lost my virginity at fourteen (It's alright, I wasn't using it for anything.)
3. I sang a sickeningly romantic duet with Lucy Liu's cousin.

2. I'm in MENSA.

Although you don't seem to be lacking in the ego department, I can't buy that you have the deep narcissism required to pay for the privilege of saying you're smart.

1.  My house has more computers than TVs
2.  My Dad blew himself up in a gasoline explosion
3.  I'm allergic to dogs and can only own poodles because they are hypoallergenic.
