The art of lying



11 tips to lying successfully, perfected after a lifetime of effort.

The art of One:One issue, one lie.

Be realistic:Stay as close to the truth as possible, for credibility, and flexibility.

KISS:One version, fewer chances of getting rogered, and fewer people to roger you.

Stay focussed: Extraneous information betrays lack of self-confidence. Also see Point 3 – keep it short.

Unemotionality:Take acting lessons. Much like in sex, body language is everything.

Pick your target:Underestimating your intended victims can have disastrous consequences.

Stick to your story:Never contradict yourself. At least, not in public.

How To Confess:In the unlikely eventuality, plead, grovel, beg, and live to lie another day. Also see Point 5 – acting lessons.

Apna jhooth Jagannath:Lying is not a group activity. Play with yourself only.

The art of closure:Know when to call it quits. But never reveal the truth.

Last, but not least, you can lie to all the people, all the time. You just can’t lie to them all at the same time.

....

You see, like two wives, two blogs are tough to handle. Think of it as matrimony but I made a blog first on MSN. And am too lazy to maintain two blogs (with my writing already suffering from Parkinsons, one is bad enough). Hence this blog was to up my picture and mandatory demographics that these guys here ask for. So that you get the plot, but miss the point.
But I'm with MSN no more. Will be blogging here from now.

A word of caution though.

  1. Opinions are like assholes.
  2. Everybody has one.
  3. I have both.
