Maybe some of the people you think are convinced are really not and when they talk amongst their friends they just say "man, what a bs'er".. just a thought.. because I do this sometimes if I don't believe some random person.. I don't see the point in confronting bs'ers unless I know them

Am I the only person (besides some of my friends) who enjoys this?

The "game" is called being a bullshitter. It's instant for some people when you add alcohol. :p

Yah, I know. However, I never do it to my friends. Just random people. :laugh:

I just read your message in the Pulled Pork thread, so this doesn't surprise me at all...

Ranging the full gamut from shock and horror to uproarious laughter?

It's all over the place. You never know.

Apparently 'e doesn't realize 'is life is a lie

Why are you always so disgruntled?

Better than being gruntled.

Or even worse, misgruntled.

There is no glory in being a compulsive liar. Any low life idiot can do that, and by doing it you join their ranks.

I've had fun with this on a number of occasions. I'm born and raised in England, and have lived in the US for the last ten years. My accent is here to stay though, so I've had lots of fun convincing people that I'm related to the royal family, telling them about my big country houses, servants and garden parties.

Not to mention, ungruntled.

Bull shitting some one is the greatest pleasure on earth. It is one of my few downfalls.

give me some examples.

my friend does stuff like this to me fairly often and it seems plausible enough that i don't doubt him.

Funny thing is the people probably know you're full of shit and promptly tell who they're with after you turn back. I'm glad you get shit-faced grins doing that, but know that most can sense bullshit when they smell it.
