I tell a porky sometimes, but mainly to avoid trouble with the wife, here are some of my favourites.
1. On being asked how many beers I had, I say 4 when really I had about 8
2. Strangers say "how are you?" and really you see see only horror, but you just say "I'm good".
3. When you say "Good morning".....I mean really? What is good about the morning?
4. When you see a student with a Ziggy Stardust haircut and you say "you are one funky looking chap!"
What are your classic lies?
my age. it started back in about grade 7 where i started reallly noticing girls boobies and felt the strong urge to grab them. Added 2 years and just told people I was dumb and that was why i was 2 grades behind. By highschool I got it down to 1 yr older then real as the gap didn't seem to matter as much, and could no longer use the "Im dumb" excuse as was put in a gifted program...but occasionally still add a year or 2, especially if I got the chance to hook up with a tart in her 20's.
Totally acceptable lie imo.
Haha, very good YB. I think that is quite acceptable too. I must admit I slice a couple of years off my age sometimes, but I can just about get away with it. 31 is not cool and I can pass for just over 25 if I get a couple of nights sleep in. But I would never take it that far, 28 is my lie limit.
A few years ago I was more coy with my views. One time a christian coworker asked me if I believed in god and I replied saying that "Sure, I do". But really I didn't, in many ways I am far more honest today. I will attack any absurdity that I truly believe to be quite ridiculous and beyond any sense of reason. I don't care who I will upset a lot of the time. I guess it is partly why I get called a cunt on here so much there days. "Well actually I think.....". "Shut it, you cunt!". It creates a wonderful type of discourse, that of just plainly speaking your mind and hiding nothing.
But still we have these basic pleasantries to make work go smoothly, make your wife be rational and to create a sense of social wheel cog turning.

Sure you had that kid on the news pretending to be you but don't believe for a second that I'm fooled.
Also, MIles...you lied too. When the wife asks you how many, you say two and mean four. No way a spidery cunt like you drinks 8 pints.
Eight pints is easy, Bilbo. Not that hard at all. Sure it makes you talk weird stuff, but quite drinkable.
Is this the time to break out the story of when I was at uni and the guy I used to hang round with were matching each other drink for drink & he ended up in A&E getting his stomach pumped. I was fine ;D
It was around this time I figured drinking is not good umm-kayy.
(plus it ages your skin)
Have you had 8 now?:cool:Quote:

and yes Miles that dress does make you look fat.
I don't lie. I just choose my words carefully and well, not always so carefully either. It can be hard to be honest.
Its alot like juggling knives. Hell, we all 'lie' be it small day to day or some contrived thing. My pet peeve are the ones who lie and you figure it out, yet they keep repeating it. It's not the lie it's the repetition and failure to own it. This is a good question really, shit I've told some doozies in the past ha.Quote:

You have to remember lies, and they are there to trip you up at any time. I've seen people think they get over but were not 'caught' until they set a pattern and dig the hole deep enough.Quote:
