I hate liars. I'll even say it again: I HATE LIARS.
Especially habitual liars. This is a rant about them.
Out of all my friends, there are 3 who are habitual liars. About every other thing they say is in one form either a lie or exaggerated.
For instance, a few weeks ago, a friend (who I'll call Levi) was invited to a party along with me. I knew the host very well, and told her that Levi lies all the time. So, after Levi gets off work, he calls us up and says he's on his way. We tell him to go get his swimsuit since we were going to use the hot tub.
Now, we knew his house is less than a mile or two away, so we thought it'd be no problem to get. He says that he magically has it in his car. So, we believe him... and then we get a call.
He says: "Hey Michael, I'm getting pulled over. I don't know when I'll get there."
Now knowing that he shouldn't be on the phone, I try to see what I can get out of him.
I say to him: "Uh... why are you on the phone then? And how fast were you going and where are you?"
He says: "Oh, just wanted you to know, and I was going 50 in a 25."
....
In Billings, we have this thing. We get arrested if we go 50 in a 35. He was going 50 in a 25. So, this is where it gets interesting.
I say: "You dumbass! You're going to get arrested!"
He says: "No I won't! Don't worry!"
He then hangs up.
He then shows up. 2 fucking minutes later. We knew that he was lying. But we didn't want him to know we knew. So, we played with him...
The host (We'll call her Amy) is really smart. It takes her a millisecond to think up a response to something.
So, I say to Amy: "Wow, Levi's back! I wonder if he got a ticket!"
Amy says: "Oh, it must be really expensive!"
I ask Levi: "So, did you get arrested? What about a ticket?"
Levi says: "Oh no! You'll never guess what happened! I got pulled over... BY MY COUSIN! He let me go."
Now, now... even if it is your cousin, you CAN NOT get out of it without any paperwork, like a warning, or a citation.
And later when we got in the hot tub, he had no swimming suit... until he went out to his car for 10 minutes, "looking for it".
If you want more stories about the other 2, I'd love to vent more.
