to get really pissed off when people lie on here?

[daisy5678]

I know lying is wrong anyway. But it's almost insulting to lie on here when, if necessary, people can see that you've lied as your words are stored forever! If you're going to lie, at least lie well .

What bugs me is when people lie to get sympathy or admiration for something that is directly contradicted by something else they wrote and they can't possibly both be true.

And then everyone piles in and goes 'oh, poor you' and you know it's bullshit and you can't say 'yeah, but they're lying' because nobody will believe that you have a photographic memory and will think you're stalking the poster and also everyone will think you're being a bitch.

I think IABU. Oh well. I'll get over it.

You are being very reasonable.

Pre grated cheese has weird floury stuff in it to stop it sticking. Otherwise would be great to not have to grate cheese yourself.

best pre sliced cheese i ever had was from costco. made the best cheese on toast ever. it was amazing. is that better or worse than pre grated.. or is pre sliced accpetable?

I lie on here but not to be malicious, more because I don't want to reveal certain things sometimes. Like I might refer to having been pregnant only once, when actually I've been pregnant 3 times but the situations and circumstances surrounding two of those pregnancies aren't something I always wish to acknowledge at a particular time.

I love bumsex

I love gingerbread

I love David Mitchell

Spot the lie, gwan, gwan, gwan...

David Mitchell

... is my 2nd husband. I truly love him.

pft

you dont like ginger biscuits

I nearly started an AIBU last night because the ready-grated cheese I bought didn't look grated to me, it looked cut into small bits which were much larger than grated bits. I felt conned. CONNED, I felt.

But then I thought if I posted it in AIBU I'd get flamed for being a lazy shagger who buys grated cheese.

(I hate grating cheese. Because my Mum always made me grate the cheese. Because she hates grating cheese. See how these things are handed down?)

Oh yes I think I added as an aside the insanity re pre-sliced cheese.

How hard is it to slice a bit of cheese off, lazy slatterns, think of the environment etc

I tend to assume that you're all lying, all of the time.

You can avoid having to grate cheese. When I make macaroni, I just cut the cheese into rough chunks, then batter them to death in the sauce, knocking all the lumps out.

Works a treat and no cut fingers.

A quick pathetic search reveals I have mentioned gingerbread 143 times, David Mitchell 35 times and bumsex a mere 18 times. And that's under this name. You can see where my priorities lie.

I have no interest in bumsex at all. A good friend is rather partial and when she was roaring drunk once I asked her what it was really like. Her answer started 'well the first few times I bled and tore like a bitch, needed a new mattress in fact....'. My mind was made up there and then. Sadly, I don't know her opinion on grated cheese.

I am more mystified about the pre-sliced mushrooms.

I understand that some people hate the texture of mushrooms and won't want to cut them up. But wouldn't that extend to eating them, which is, after all, cutting them with your teeth.

So do people actually buy pre-cut mushrooms when they don't even eat them themselves. That is a level of self-sacrifice that baffles me, frankly.

SOH - the first few times ??? JFC Needed a new mattress?????? WTF....

If I couldn't bear to touch something I think I probably wouldn't cook it for you. Sorry.

I quite like the texture of raw mushrooms though. They're so uniform.

I'm always getting picked on in rl for buying grated cheese

Yesterday two old ladies saw me put it in my trolly and tutted and called me disgusting.
I got to the till and the checkout girl lobbed the packet of cheese at my head and shouted "GET OFF OUT OF IT YOU CHEESE WHORE!!"

I'm sick of it, why cant they just accept that pre-grated cheese is the best option for me and mine?

I BET we get more response and debate about the texture of mushrooms and the slicing of that SOH's mate's ripped bumhole.

Mushrooms are the easiest thing in the world to slice - they are softer than baby angels. It's not like chopping up swede when there is an agonising second where you rest your whole weight on the knife to slice the damn thing and think that you may indeed be risiking chopping off your own hand.

I don't lie on the internet. I will sometimes tell white lies to DH along the lines of "I couldn't find something" when I hadn't actually looked for it, but that's the extent of my lying. Today for example I corrected the amount of money I said I had from £3.80 to £3.79 to the shopkeeper (had to tell them how much as we were plant buying with a limited budget). I can come across as differing people according to the environment I'm in though For example if I meet someone on a one to one basis I can appear very ok, but if I meet in a group I often withdraw into myself, find it hard to cope, get distracted or can't initiate so come across as very different. So I'm not lying in either situation, but perspectives of me will depend on a whole variety of factors. I do sometimes withhold information if I'm worried it will make things worse for me to disclose it, for example I keep a lot of my own self help difficulties hidden when talking to professionals as I don't want them to be on my records.

"I will sometimes tell white lies to DH along the lines of "I couldn't find something" when I hadn't actually looked for it"

Lol.

i hate chopping swedde

It doesn't count as lying if it's your DH.

Just tell him as little as you have to, he doesn't need to know a goddamn thing.

Are you practising lying there 2shoes - do you really love swede and everything to do with it?

I am lying as I can really spell swede
