Answer 24

Sometimes when it helps the story, otherwise I just lie my butt off.

Nobody is really interested in the truth unless they have an ax to grind and they just twist the facts around to fit their version of events.

As a matter of self protection I exaggerate, distort and play fast and loose with the facts when ever possible.
