Hard to live a peaceful life and never lie. She does look fat in those pants may not be the best policy. ;)

No one is worth it.
 
I lie all the time. My name is not Humbolt.
 
How was supper honey? I worked hard to make it now, Oh it was good Honey,,thank you!:lol:
 
I lie rarely. Lying takes A LOT of energy. You have to remember the lie, make sure you don't let the truth slip out, answer follow ups, etc.. No thank you. I'd rather tell the truth and deal with the consequences.

The one thing I do lie about frequently is when you run into people like at work or on the street and are like "Hi, how are you?" ( I hate when people ask that) It's so much easier to just say "good" than really tell the truth that you are having a bad day, woke up late, saw the dog puked all over the living room, babygirl had major attitude about putting on a freaking jacket, had to rush to get to work in the rain, spilled coffee all over my pants, and just generally in a bad mood so leave me the hell alone because you really don't care how I am.

:lamo That's my FAVORITE time to tell the truth. I just love the reaction I get when I do.

"How are you today."
"****ty. My hemorrhoids are acting up. My pee hurts. I have an itch I cant scratch and wont go away. Not to mention I am feeling homicidal, daddy needs a new pair of boots. You look like you will make a nice pair. :)"

You should see the reactions to that riff. And the funny part is its not far from the truth. It makes me feel much better when I do tell the truth.
 
I don't lie about anything that matters, but I do like to bull**** just to keep life interesting at times. :lol:

That's the trouble with stage names for famous people like you. It gets all blurry and confusing sometimes, but at least you know what you're not! That's a good start... :mrgreen:

Good afternoon, whoever you are today! :2wave:

Good afternoon. I'm feeling Randy today. Neighbor down the road wants some advice on a set of stairs today. That usually translates into HELP! Yet another liar. They're everywhere.

That's the kind of lies I tell most often too. When the lie harms no one and is a lot easier than explaining the truth.
 
If someone I can't stand invites me to dinner I will lie and tell them I am busy rather than hurt their feelings by telling them they are an insufferable bore and I would rather scoop out my eyeballs with a rusty melon baller than sit through another dinner listening to them regale me with tales of how their 3 y/o went potty all by himself.
 
"I never lie"
Ha!
And define lie.
I admit (man up) that I lie....
The first step
I do not know about others....something about "self-righteous" .
 
I have been known to embellish the truth or even tell a lie now and again when it will save someone some hard feelings.

"No Sweetheart. That dress doesn't make you look fat."

At my age, most folks hardly lie about things anymore. We tend to tell the "truth," as we know it to be. But that doesn't mean we aren't lying I suppose. It just means we think we are being honest.

Simple question. Do you lie? How often? And why or why not?

Personally, I try not to as much as possible, but I do find myself telling white lies occasionally, mostly because it's a situation where lying is a lot less complicated and easier to explain than telling the truth.

If I did lie a lot, wouldn't I just lie about it?

what is the biggest lie of men ?
 
I don't have a clue. Ask a woman.
 
I try, very hard, to never knowingly say something I know to be false.
 
men lie the most, women tell the biggest lies. a man's lie is like "I was at Tony's house" or "I was at Kenny's house". a woman's lie is like "It's your baby" ....
 
*ouch*

I thought you were going to say her biggest lie was, "No, baby. Of course 38 seconds is enough for me. Stamina is overrated anyway."

:D
