Lying is so much more imaginative.
This is why I plan to become a professional bullshitter. Writing fiction is great in that way.

1. So long as you don't descend into Republicanism, I'll support you.
Republicanism: lying to line your pockets at the expense of others. Lying because they don't know you're lying and you feel better about yourself as a result.

3. Well, they're lying to the extent of needing a mental ward.
You obviously can't go too far with it.

2. It works well in writing
But it's so much work otherwise. You have to remember all the stories and keep them straight - I'm lousy at that.

I do well at the one-time-only bullshit sessions, the ones that take place with people I'll never meet again.
