It's a joke. It is like one of those logic puzzles that says something like "This sentence is false." If the sentence is true, then it's false and if it's false, then it's true.

"One of us always tells the truth, and one of us always lies. He lies."

Edit: Or this other one I heard from Davey Havok on Loveline many years ago...

"If I asked you to sleep with me, would your answer be the same as the answer to this question?"

Wizard: "There are two guards. One tells the truth, one tells lies. We must learn which is which to get through the magic door!"

Ork kills one one of the guards, then demands of the other, "Is that man dead?"

Guard, trembling for his life, "Errr, no?"

Ork: "This guard the liar."

Rogue applauds.

I mean… it’s more like a “this sentence is true” logic puzzle.

She’s describing someone pretty specific, the person it’s about absolutely knows it’s about them, and they’re not wrong.
