What Was The Last Lie You Told?

[mrs_overall]

Was it a white lie or a whopper?

[mccfluff]

i just told murph i'd feed her in a min..... expecting come back on that one shortly..... the baleful glare from the doorwayis reaching force10...

[woofgang]

I honestly can't remember.

[ummmm]

Him - How long has the immersion been on?

Yesterday, to an annoyingly nosey neighbour who keeps asking me if I've retired yet!!! I keep saying no as I am working from home and just nipping out to get a paper!!!!
If I said yes, this neighbour would be in my house full time!!!

[gness]

I never lie.............neither white nor whopper......x

[gness]

At 10.45.....x

[gness]

Gosh...this is good......got my mind thinking and I don't fib much.....

I did recently tell Virgin that I was far too old and frail to disconnect and post back all the non working equipment they had inflicted upon me knowing darn well it wouldn't work properly.....but then they lied first.....x

I last told a lie 30 years ago- honest.

[dustypuss]

I last told a lie 1 minute ago -honest :-)

I've conveniently forgotten.

But there is a difference between a 'lie' and a 'fib'. I bet most people fib at least once a day - ie ' sorry someones at the door' to end a telephone conversation that has gone on too long or ' sorry I have a doctors appointment' when you don't want to offend someone who's invited you somewhere.
A lie...well that's a bit more devious - like when I reversed into a wall in my car and told OH I found the car like that in the car park ( and faked suitable chagrin)

"It doesn't matter, it'll wipe up" when my granddaughter managed to splatter cooking lemon curd all over the cooker when she dropped the whisk five minutes ago.

[jomifl]

A fib and a lie are both untruths ...how are they distiguishable?

[Retrochic]

jomilf -are you honestly proposing that a little fib to prevent hurting someones feelings is the same as " I was nowhere near the murder victim when he fell on the knife guv'nor"

'Computer? what's that then?' to the man from Microsoft (I know) on the phone yesterday.

[wolf63]

I've just reassured Frankie that there is no pills in his cat treats. He ate the treats - in the middle of his plate was one white tablet of prednisolone.

I will have to lie to him again later.

" my pleasure"

to a customer this morning.

[Sammy48]

When 'Kevin' from an Indian call centre asked for OH on the phone this morning, I said he is not here and when said 'Kevin' asked when would he be back, I said in about 12 years as he is in prison lol lol lol

[Svejk]

There'd be something 'not quite right' about someone who told the truth all the time, imo.
