Do not believe their lies.
In Payday 3 one of the crew members will be called “Three”, just so they can drop the line “I want my payday, Three!” Do not listen to their reasons why that character is named Three.
If they are telling you “actually, we totally thought of that before the title drop joke even came to mind.”
NO! They are making it up. I am so sure that they’re going to pull this bullshit on us, there is just absolutely no way around it.
If they say “Ummm actually it’s because when they were a teenager they robbed a convenience store and the only thing they got out of it was three dollars and when the other kids in the youth detention center found out they were relentlessly razzed for it but eventually they adopted the name and wore it with pride to signify that they learned from their mistakes.”
NO! They are LYING!
If they say “Well, it’s because they have OCD and they came up with those three rules for heisting after a job went wrong so they constantly reiterate them whenever they’re in a stressful situation.”
NO! Falsehoods, plain and simple.
If they say “Well, they’re one of a group of triplets and when you spawn in with the character you randomly get assigned either triplet #1, triplet #2 or triplet #3. In order to distinguish them the crew just started calling them by a number because they’re Greek and their real names are needlessly convoluted and unpronounceable to everyone but themselves.”
NO! You are being taken for a fool.
If you catch them red-handed and link them this post and they say “huh, what a coincidence that someone predicted that we would name a character Three but it’s actually completely unrelated to our character we named Three and the backstory we came up with is also different.”
NO! They are laughing at you. They think you’re a genuinely dumb person. They think you are very very stupid. The biggest moron they’ve ever seen. Patently subhuman. A substandard intelligence troglodyte.
Do not, I repeat, do not believe their fucking lies.
