Any liars out there?

Post by MalvoliO »

Got a virtual meeting with my colleagues tomorrow during lockdown. Last week the meeting's theme was "wear a hat during the meeting", this week the theme is to tell three statements about ourselves, two of which are true and one of which is a lie. The others on the call have to guess which statement is the lie.

Can anyone think of a really pukka lie that I could tell? My two truths will be 1) I have never learned how to ride a bicycle and 2) I once asked Michael Caine if he was looking for the gents' toilets.

Cheers all.

"I think the person who comes up with these meeting themes is so out there" would be a good lie.

Get the meeting off to a good start

I once shared a joint with George Michael at a house party. But if I'm honest, I got on better with Andrew Ridgely, who was also there.

You can decide whether that's true or a whopper ;)

Tell them while messing around at home a year ago
with your childhood chemistry set , you created a very unusual bacteria.

You gave it to a friend who will remian nameless,
but has gone by the covert name of Thor .
Thor is a highly well connected spiv & passed the Bacteria on to MI 12 ( specialist bacterias) & it was then under lockdown & sent to Wuhan.

Angent Thor was very aggrieved at this blatant theft of British invention by the locaal test centre, so he flew to Wuhan in a Police Helicopter,
( he knows a high up plod) ,
After arriving he & his team Broke into the testing centre & under great stress to himself & the team in
Much the way Ethan Hunt would do , He Escaped through the wet markets of Wuhan disguised as Batman .

The Bacteria was back safe in Britain which was lucky as the chinese had seen it develop into a pandemic threatening Virus .

Phew

3 cheers for Thor

Had to endure this horrendous charade many times in the course of my illustrious career in the Civil Service. My lie was always that I once caddied for David Bowie in a round of golf (couldn't be arsed thinking up a new one ever, as it was new people you were meeting each time) Surprisingly, this was generally accepted to be true, although I always thought that the notion of David Bowie playing golf was quite bizarre

I've always said that I used to be in East 17, but quit the band just before they became famous due to artistic differences. Because I've not always clarified that this is a lie, over the years the number of people who genuinely believe it has built up. It long ago went past the point of no return where I could come clean.

Recently my work did a profile on me on the company intranet, and this bullshit was put forward as a factoid by a coworker. I both chuckle and cringe every time I read it, and it's also now a permanent record of my deception.
