LIAR


What is the definition of a liar? It is simple. A person who tells lies is called a liar. This person has lied or has told lies repeatedly until such label was given.

Apparently, there are many types of lies depending on the severity of the lie. The Oxford Dictionary even has categories for different liars! It is true! I am not lying to you!

1.     Fib. 

Sounds so simple that the person who fibs it is called a fibber. A fibber sounds even better when called as a fibster! This is a form of lying that is usually forgiven because it is not intended to deceive. Quite an insignificant or childish lie.

Example:
“Please lah… eat this carrot oh.. Later you will become clever like Bugs Bunny”



2.     The second category is a white lie.

This is usually told as a sort of innocent lie. It is so minor that it is almost undetectable! I am sure we all have told a white lie. White lies are sometimes used in the interests of tact or politeness.

Example:
“ Does this skirt makes my legs look fat?” asked Jennifer.
“Umm.. No.. uh.. I don’t think so dear” answered her boyfriend.

In this case, both Jennifer and her boyfriend benefits from that white lie.



3.  Bluffing

This is a strategy lie. It is necessary in sports and playing pokers or mahjong. What is great about this lie is that the bluffer does not even need to open his/her mouth to lie! In fact, I don’t think this can harm people’s feelings also.

What? Need example? Okay okay…
a) Basketball fake shoot, fake passing, fake dribble, ankle breaker…
"Whoops..."

b) same goes for pokers and mahjong… only not using fake cards!!


"pick a card. Any card..."

4.  Exaggeration

This type of lie is add-on something fake to something true in order to make it sound very happening or serious. It is like McD add-on large size (sorry, bad example ;p). 

Examples are:
a) OMG! Jennifer! I saw him dating with 10..no..no.. actually is 20 girls just now!
b) His pimple is very big oh! Like a golf ball, you know!



5.  Cheating/Misleading – deceiver, slickster, prevaricator

This is sort of a moderate to serious lie, depending on the situation. Making people believe in another thing. Experienced liars are very good at this technique. Please be careful. They are harmful in a group working together.

Example:
a) Scoring 62 cp for pure.. then changed to another Lead Daemon to avoid detection…
b) Tmori told Mitty that she wanted to go to toilet for a while.
Sitcon appeared and asked “Where is Tmori. I don’t see her around”
Mitty replied “I saw her going away…duno how long o Sitcon… maybe one hour, one day, one week…..”
“WHATTTTT!!!!!??” Sitcon [Enraged]


6. Noble lie

Noble? Lie? How come this big lie is noble? This is a special and exclusive type of lie that common people cannot use (eg. Farmers, plumbers, students, mechanics…)


      So who can use this? BIG Politicians of course! They use noble lies to control the population so that they are docile and [calm]. Where do they learn from to upgrade to this level? Category 5 of course! If they are trained from young, they will become even more expert liars when become adults who enter into politics. This type of liars is too big until no need example.
