That was the intro by the way. It brought a smile to my face, I also hope you enjoy it.
So today I learned that I lie quite a bit and I don't even think anything of it. I'm sure if you're my friend or if you've ever had a conversation with me that I've lied to you.Uhm, sorry. Someone caught me in a small lie where I said I didn't have any gum and then my friend went through my bag and found some. She then proceeded to tell me how it was kind of cool how I lied to her with such a straight face, and how I looked her straight in the eyes. I took this as a compliment, I suppose it's because I enjoy deceiving people. I really doubt that's a good trait but oh well. If all else fails I guess I could run for president, I could tell everyone that I was going to solve world hunger, and i'd create a sufficient healthcare plan, and that i'd make pigs fly.
The End.
Hey, this is a good topic. Too bad the title's spelled wrong.
ReplyDeleteIf someone is acting based on (reacting to) anything but the truth, they have the potential to justify any action. Scary.
I hate it when people lie about stupid shit like your gum or what they're doing, but the really sucky part is that it often happens in an effort NOT TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLE FEEL BAD. Assuming you knew you had gum, you lied so you didn't have to tell whomever that you didn't want to give them any.
Lying often comes down to weird ambiguities, which I guess is appropriate considering it's alteration of the "truth." Shit sucks.
Assuming you actually believe in a truth, anyway.
very nice intro, everyone loves cameron diaz :)
