I've figured Earthling out, ladies and gentlemen and Sonny. What he says is the opposite of what he means, or should say. When he says I "lied", he really means, I'm very very correct. When he says I'm doing a terrible job as townie, he means to say I'm doing a much better job than he could ever hope to do.
I can now rest easier, having solved the most important mystery of all.
