Have you ever told someone a lie with the hopes that you WOULDN’T be believed? That defeats the entire purpose.

[This is an experiment to see how many of you will lie by stating that you’ve never lied.  Pretend you didn’t read this description field, just answer as you would have anyway, please. Thank you.]

     Which lies would be told in a situation like that one, and why would you not want the other person to believe them?

    Generally we are playing for something, bragging rights, money or beers. To wit,

    I am not going to make this put
    I don't think I can make this water carry
    You really don't want to bet on this

  • At one of my jobs, I had a rather large, odd looking seashell sitting on my desk.  My boss asked me, "What IS that??"   I told him it was something I had surgically removed.  He said, "OMG, why do you have it here???"  I told him I was proud of it!

    I thought he would have known I was lying .. LOL!  Oh well, he went away and left me alone.
