    I'm a better sitter.

    I used to be terrible, would go bright red and stutter.


    I'm not arsed now though. I'm cool, calm, and believable. The trick is to act nonchalant and not give too much detail - that's a sure sign of lying.


    You pick it up after years of lying to teachers/parents :)

    Nope, I'm pretty believable. Just don't say too much and make yourself believe it and it works flawlessly.

    That said I hardly ever lie in any case.

    /May be untrue

    The following statement is true.

    The previous statement was a lie.


    That about sums up my lying skills.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,493 ✭✭✭DazMarz


    I have become skilled at lying over the years and can now tell lies as quickly as I can make them up. This helps when you play poker as much as I do, not for bluffing, but for disguising the strength of your hand (alright, a bit of bluffing too).

    But in real life, I worry myself sometimes, when I find myself believing stuff that I say which is absolutely untrue!:eek:

    I'm a terrible liar, can't lie to save my life really. To Give an example, recently, I was sitting down at my seat in a G20 meeting and we were discussing ways of seeming like we gave a shit about the poor African nations when I decided to rub Merkel's leg under the table. She was delighted to get the come on and at the next interval she dragged me to the ladies and threw me up against the cubicle wall. Anyhoo, to cut a long story short, I was intent on getting a bit of 'backdoor action' so I told her that I'd leave Carla to be with her - she instantly knew, by the reflection of my face in the toilet roll dispenser that I was lying.

    P.S. I feel really bad about that handball incident ... honest ...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,572 ✭✭✭WeeBushy


    I'm lying right now.

    But if I'm lying then that first statement is a lie so I must be telling the truth, but if I'm telling the truth then that statement is a lie, but if its a lie then it must... Ow, my head hurts :(

    Dammit. Artanaville beat me to it, and better put than me as well:o

    I seem to havegone the other way, I used to be a brilliant
    liar but somewhere along the way i seem to have lost the ability
    and now everybody knows when I am lying.

    Looks like I will just have to be a good boy from now on :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 345 ✭✭Randy Shafter


    I'm so good a lying even i believe my own lies! :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,153 ✭✭✭ronano


    I'm terrible at telling lies :( both in saying it and god knowing i have to lie is terrible. I've been putting off something for 2 weeks because i know i'll have to ring a perfectly nice guy and lie to him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    I'm really bad at telling the truth apparently as people have called me a liar many times for my honesty.

    Guarantee you people can tell.

    By far the most common lie I tell/portray is pretending I believe other people's lies
