speaking of which
Edited on Fri Jan-25-08 05:54 PM by fenriswolf
I saw this new show called "moment of truth" its a game show and all the contestants have to do is answer questions while attached to a polygraph machine. But they get increasingly personal. Kind of interesting, also kind of scary.

5. The only time I lied was when I voted on this poll.
Is it too early to apologize? Too?

13. Sure, but I'm not a politician. They are superhumans and we should expect nothing less
than superhuman, angelic behavior, 100% of the time.

Also, if they make mistakes, they should NEVER, EVER admit it... and instead just wiggle and squirm around the truth so as to at least keep up the veneer of supherhuman angelicalness.

:crazy:

14. I never lied about not knowing someone for 17 years
when I in fact had known him for 17 years.

16. Are we sure he knew him knew him?
Or was he just an acquaintance?

I think the more damning idea is that he said something like "nobody had any idea he was crooked" when it seems like that is very far from the truth.

That reminds me too much of someone very, very awful.

19. I have lied
And I have lied about something pretty important, but actually my worst mistake was telling the truth about something pretty important that I probably should have lied about.

23. Of course. I'm married.
And, until I retired, I was employed.

"Honey, does this dress I love look good on me?"

"Were you really sick when you called in Friday?"

"Isn't my sister's baby cute?"
