What I’d really like to know is how many people out there believe that omitting the truth is not the same thing as lying? Okay, so technically omitting is not lying, but come on, isn't the hair split so very fine on that one that it's hard to put it in any but the same category?
“I didn’t think that you’d be interested in hearing about the 27 years I spent in prison for serial killing or how I got tired of being there for life and ‘left.’”
“‘Oh, didn’t I mention that I totaled your mother’s car when I borrowed it last week? Sorry, been so busy it simply slipped my mind. Well, I guess since she’s bed ridden she hadn’t been out to the garage to notice.”
“What do you mean, I never told you about my previous four wives? What, did you think you were the first? Well, they really didn’t count because I never had kids with them the way I did with you.”
“Divorced? Of course I’m not. What made you think that I was?”
“No, I never said that there weren’t bodies in the closet.”
“‘I didn’t think the fact that I used to be a man was that important. The past is the past, and aren’t I all woman now?”
“Yes, there are 87 cats living in my basement. Is that a problem for you?”
How different history might have been had George Washington said “I cannot say who chopped down that tree.”
