Don't lie - or should you?

Small penis huh?

The problem with lying is that it devalues communication itself, decreasing the signal to noise ratio. If what people say has no resemblance to reality, or worse, a believable but false resemblance to reality, then what they say should be disregarded. This takes the once powerful tool of speech, and makes it worthless: everyone might as well be saying "blah blah blah".

Or, if you're lazy, consider this:
"If you don't lie, then you don't have to remember what you said."

lying can certainly be noble, but truth has value so it should be avoided.

Only joking I'm sure your wedding tackle is large, and even if it isn't it's what you do with it that counts. And by it I mean any part of your body. If I hit a sore spot it was only meant in jest anyway. I apologise.

I was only joking too.

And are you a model that saw my profile on some random website? And is it true you couldn't get the money out as you are 16?

How did you guess?

I received this email a thousand times, in different forms... I wonder if anyone actually believes this!

I know, it boggles the mind that there are people out there dumb enough to fall for it. PT Barnum was right. There probably is a sucker born every minute.
