As I said, I used to have to hide from the cameras at Filbo in case my Mum saw me smoking, on her TV.

That said, when talking to people my mouth just naturally exaggerates things. There's me telling someone about the traffic jam I was in on the M6...and I can hear my mouth telling them I was stuck there for two weeks without any aid being dropped in and I had to use the boot as a makeshift toilet.

Honestly, if I could slap my own mouth when things like this happen I'd be a happier person.

I have absolutely NO 'honesty cut-off switch'. Whenever someone asks me "How's it going?" or "What do you think?" they get it, full barreled!

The wife refuses to talk to me now when she gets her hair done.

Lieing is good - it keeps your brain working.

If I didn't have to remember what lies I told people, think my brain wouldn't be used at all!!!

Lying is actually good for you.

It stands alone now in that respect, everything else is being branded as 'bad for you' but lying is just plain wholesome.

I am not too sure where I stand on this.

The general (society) consensus idea is that lying is bad for you and relationships and society as a whole. Avoid at all costs! But then radio programmes and magazine articles are happy to go on about "best excuses to use next time you fancy a sickie". It's taken for granted that we all do. If you need to throw a sickie, you are in the wrong job in the first place! (Leave now. You won't regret it. But don't come complaining to me if you cannot find another job afterwards!!!)

I think I can cope with the occasional white lie. They might even be necessary to avoid hurting people.

I can also relate to exaggeration. Italians normally exaggerate a bit compared to British standards (but that is normal there and, if you didn't exaggerate, your statements would be undervalued - another problem!).

' date='Sep 20 2006, 03:43 PM' post='399859'] I like to slip random lies about random things into random coversation.

It's pretty random, but it keeps me entertained.

So which bit of random information in the random reply was a random lie, it would be entertaining to know?

That was actually all truthful.

But am I lying now?

This could go on for a while....

I find that employers make very good people to lie to.

First, you can submit a CV to them pretending that you are Superman, then you can support it by handing over some letters of support that you wrote yourself full of lies...finally, when you have the job, you can phone them every Sunday to tell them the prawns in the curry you had on Saturday night must have been a bit funny...and get Monday off.

Maybe this is why I don't work at the moment? :D

You are in a room with 2 doors, one will lead to paradise and the other will lead to hell. The 2 doors are identical and you do not know which door will lead to which. In front of the 2 doors are 2 computers. One will ALWAYS lie while the other ALWAYS speaks the truth.

You must ask ONE question for you to find out which door leads to paradise or hell. Anytype of questions but only one.
