NOTE THAT THE SPOKESPERSON FOR THE STUDY IS A WOMAN
...which means it's probably a lie.

It's obvious really, lying takes skill.

#2--"I don't know where it is--I haven't touched it!" Sure, baby...

And your point is.....?
Posted by: W. Clinton | May 18, 2010 at 02:45 PM
What about:
Wife: Honey, did you hear what I just said?
Husband: Yes, of course I was listening.
Posted by: Pannus | May 18, 2010 at 02:49 PM
But most men's lies have to do with not wounding their wife's feelings.
Posted by: Braniff | May 18, 2010 at 02:56 PM
Mot, Braniff - you are both well over your limits today.
Allen - TMI.

No, those pants don't make you look fat. Neither does the thong.
Posted by: wiredog | May 18, 2010 at 03:01 PM
Duh.
Posted by: Siouxie | May 18, 2010 at 03:02 PM
"You look just fine."
Posted by: bonmot | May 18, 2010 at 03:04 PM
We all know women don't lie.
"Yes I did, sweetheart and it was the best sex EVER!"
Posted by: Siouxie | May 18, 2010 at 03:05 PM
No really, I old do I look?
Ubb...ahhmmm...mmmbb...Honey, you look great!

Men: [-----]= 9 inches

She: I bought some new bed linens this week.
He: Any pillows?
She: Of course not!

Is this a new article?
Of course it is!

I was at the office.
Posted by: Mot The Hoople | May 18, 2010 at 03:33 PM
No, Annie, you look GREAT in those pants!
Posted by: Allen at Division | May 18, 2010 at 03:39 PM
Drunk! Me? Never! Wanna shee me walk a shtrahate line?
Posted by: Horace LaBadie | May 18, 2010 at 03:45 PM
Of course baby, you're my first.
Posted by: Siouxie | May 18, 2010 at 03:46 PM
Apparently cell phone coverage sucks in the UK.
Oh, and Siouxie: font size matters. I'm at least 128 pt Roman on that scale. But then again, WYSIWYG.

We don't want to wear the black hat.
So men lie to dodge spousal combat.
But the question of doom
that's sunk many a groom:
"Does this make my ass look too fat?"
Posted by: bonmot | May 18, 2010 at 03:55 PM
How are we supposed to trust or believe a study about lying when all the data is self-reported?
How do we know they weren't all lying on every question asked?
Did they account for the fact that most politicians are men which will skew the results?
Posted by: Dad-O-Lot | May 18, 2010 at 04:13 PM
"Don't worry baby. It happens to men all the time." No, it doesn't and yes it matters.
Posted by: nursecindy | May 18, 2010 at 04:28 PM
It is the women's own fault. First time:
WIFE: Honey, do these jeans make my ass look big?
HUSBAND: Mmmm, yes in fact, it does look big in those. (hair dryer, curling iron, espidrilles hurled at spouse)
Second time:
WIFE: Does my ass look big in these?
HUSBAND: What?! No way! You look HOT!
Posted by: MartiniShark | May 18, 2010 at 04:58 PM
It's true. 93% of all statistics are made up.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | May 18, 2010 at 05:27 PM
I'm shocked that Sharkie knows what an espadrille is. Does this mean you've had a few thrown at you?
Posted by: nursecindy | May 18, 2010 at 05:29 PM
I never lie.
Posted by: Loudmouth | May 18, 2010 at 05:36 PM
Obviously, none of the respondents were politicians.
Posted by: Horace LaBadie | May 18, 2010 at 06:38 PM
Men lie because women demand it by punishing truth to the death. "Honey, would you like to go to the opera with me this weekend?"
Only the truly inexperienced or the suicidal would tell the truth. "Oh, to tell the truth, I'd rather get a vasectomy via Evinrude."
Or, "No, I'd say it's your rear end that makes you look...."
I learned that from my first serious girlfriend.
Now, I can tell my wife that, "A man should never miss the chance to shut up."
Posted by: Steve | May 18, 2010 at 06:51 PM
Define " lie ".
Posted by: Clankie | May 18, 2010 at 07:48 PM
Took me a while Cyndi because the name on my forehead was reversed in the mirror.
Posted by: MartiniShark | May 18, 2010 at 08:03 PM
"Wow! Did you build that yourself?"
