Lies I've told today....
1. I told the cafeteria ladies that I am allergic to margarine. I have no idea if you CAN be allergic to margarine. But I don't WANT it on my english muffin. Anytime I go in there, they are about to slather it on and I have to say WAIT! Is that MARGARINE? Do you have butter? Otherwise, I'll have it dry. So I thought maybe an allergy and the fear that my throat will close up and I'll keel over into the canned chili vat would make them remember that they need to use butter.
i'm sure I will lie again before the day is out. I'll keep you all in the loop. Please share your lies too. No matter how small.
Re: Lies I've told today....
I used to lie all the time at OT. Well not all the time. Probably 20 percent of the seemingly expert answers I have given over the years have been shit I made up. Because 80 percent were accurate answers I have never been caught. It is a game I loved playing to see if anyone would ever come along and challenge me.

I've done that all my life. When we were teens, my BFF was the most gullible person ever. I used to tell her things like the War What is it Good For being the original title to War and Peace thing from Seinfeld (before seinfeld was ever on of course) and watch her the following night at a party trot out her new knowledge. The funny part was, she never stopped believing me.
Re: Lies I've told today....
Sometimes the things I make up turn out to be true. Remember when you asked about the noise that occurs when only the back car windows are down and I answered that it was compression/decompression? I thought I was making that up but it turns out to be true.

Re: Lies I've told today....
No, I do remember that. Because I wanted to post that thread for years and I kept forgetting. Everytime I'd roll down the back window, I'd think, "i should start a thread about this" and then I never did.
Ij ust told me 1st lie. to the office biddy who is doing some cancer thing in the cafeteria. She alll chipper nad happy likes comes into my office, "Oh come and get a ice cream float and some information about breast cancer, it could save your life" Me: oh yeah, I forgot that was today. I'll be in later.
I didn't forget and I have no intention of going in there.
Re: Lies I've told today....
I'm tangled up in some office drama right now so I had to tell a couple to keep the peace or to stay out of it or something. It's hard to tell lies when you basically don't talk to anyone at work and you left your fucking phone at home.
Re: Lies I've told today....
I used to make up stuff to tell my dad about, mostly business theories and economics theories. WITHOUT FAIL he would say "Oh, yeah, I know about that. You don't have to explain it to me, I've written papers on it."
Lies I've told today:
Oh, it's no problem that you forgot I was coming, it happens at least once a day!
No, I don't mind rescheduling and doing another 300 mile round trip, I love to drive!

Re: Lies I've told today....
I don't think I told any lies yesterday after my last post in this thread.
This morning, I called this dude who called last night and wants to have a teleconference with me today that I was busy all day except 11-12. I'm in a power negotitation with him so, my strategy is to give him an audience, but on my terms. It's a psychological thing.
omg!wtf!?
cute new subnic
for my friend

LOL! thanks, you don't suck.
It was the 15th.
I celebrated the 16th. Took the day off drove to Amish country in Indiana. (I just wanted to go because it's a nice drive and they have kick ass swiss cheese and ring bologna) Bought some goodies.
Then we had a nice dinner, a few drinks and dancing. It was a nice day/evening.
