Lying Liars and the People They Lie To


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

So in the light of the Manti Te'o debacle, I'm wondering how many people on here have a story of someone in their past who attempted to perpetrate a colossal deception and failed...or succeeded.

Have you ever known a big fat liar? If so, what did they lie about?

Ex wife was/ is an all pro liar

I got divorced from her close to 30 years ago - havent seen nor talked to her since - from time to time I still have her creditors call me looking for her

Biggest one I ever knew was a lady I worked with on a prior job.

Anytime someone had a major illness or a death in the family, she'd go around the entire office - I'd estimate about two to three hundred employees - and take up a collection for them. I generally contributed something myself, depending on how much I had in my pocket (like a lot of folks, I hardly ever carry cash these days).

Heard one day that she had been fired, and shortly thereafter learned that all that money she had collected never actually made it to the people it was supposedly for. She was keeping it herself :unsure:

That wasn't the reason she was fired though. She had been let go because she kept going out on funeral leave, and apparently one of her "family members" died a couple of times :blink:

Given that record, it wouldn't surprise me if she turned out to be Manti Te'o's girlfriend.

There's the old military addage:

If the story starts, "This is no bullshit," or "This is a no-shitter...," odds are it's not the truth.

And I play a lot of golf and rarely listen to guys telling golf stories because the 3-foot putt soon becomes the 16-footer downhill with a hard left to right break...blah, blah, blah...

Golf cheaters are worse than golf liars, and I've been paired with golf cheaters- not fun in the least.

If you know fishermen and golfers, you likely know liars :lol:

A guy at my dad's country club growing up was an insane liar when it came to golf. The club would track everyone's handicap and everyone knew this guy sucked but he was always in the single digits. I never understood it, he was one of the richest guys there, drove a Ferrari, huge house, trophy wife, etc, he simply HAD to cheat when playing golf.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
