I don't associate with fake people. I honestly have more respect more people who openly dislike me and do nothing to hide it than people who talk to me just to be friendly :ld:

The thing about this type of person is they can be easily subverted and moved.

Think on it logically:
Why would a guy make up that many ducktales? Because he wants something from you. He wants to impress you, he wants your respect(since he doesn't have any self-esteem of his own). So... why not give him what he wants? Playing the part and building him up costs you nothing, but can mean a lot to him. Loyalty can be born that way, and you can never have too many people in your corner. You can make good use of (selective) approval to make people move the way you want them to move.

"Your boy" on the other hand is an idiot. Calling him on his lies is good for a few cheap laughs, but what does it really achieve? It only alienates him. There's no percentage in making people feel bad about themselves. Instead of gaining a friend(or at least an "useful idiot") you might make an enemy.

Like Napoleon said, we are either kings or pawns in this life...

:ohhh: This guy is on to something

good post.

It's tough when one of these types is a coworker. So in that context, can't always go with it, although in my personal and professional life that's the route I usually take.

But in a work scenario, gotta pretty quickly correct misrepresentations, exaggerations and half-truths that pertain to the job because it can compromise efficiency and operations.

This is the thing that gets me about these types...even you when you call out the lies with evidence, and suggest and/or outright verbalize that you don't fukk with liars and lies, they STILL do that shyt. :mindblown:

Shyt's definitely a psychological disorder.

All morning I had to listen to this Jamaican nikka ramble on boasting & storytelling.

He said shyt like:
He knew a gangster I Jamaica who used to slit throats in the middle of a party & leave before anybody noticed.

His dikk is 10 inches.

Jamaican girls aren't ratchet.

He fought his girlfriend's father at the age of 14 & slumped him

He's fukked plenty of grown women in his teenage years

I'm sitting here like :patrice:

My boy is pointing out plot holes in his story left & right

Listening to duck tales is horrendous. On the Coli, all I have to do is neg & keep it moving :snoop:

I just keep talking to them like :ohhh:. Ask them a bunch of questions, they never catch the sarcasm...
