Brilliant last line! It begs the question "is lying always deceiving?"

Thank you thank you. Lying is the work of the speaker, and being deceived (or not) is the work of the listener.

Jeffrey! This one felt so true to me. How foolish it all is. Lying and hoping to be called out ... being dishonest hoping they would take the initiative - to avoid responsibility. This one was cool!

Hope all is well!

Being a coward sucks. It's a condition I'm working to grow out of. Progress has surely been made in the last few years, but there is more progress to be made.
