[quote=Anonymous]My mom lied a lot -- little stuff like telling guests the cookies were homemade (she had it in her head that if you buy butter cookies and "brush them with butter" and put them in the oven people think you just made them), and I remember at like 68 after years of dying her brown hair auburn she was suddenly almost platinum blonde (which looked really bad and weird) and she went on about how "It just happened, I just suddenly turned blonde!" She kept insisting it was totally natural even though her roots were obvious. When she passed away a year later we found the drugstore bleach in her bathroom.

My stepfather was the big liar though. I remember he told my grandparents, I think at Thanksgiving dinner, that he'd competed in the Olympics and won a bronze medal in, oh what was it?  I think he said "shot put," or something. He was definitely never even at the Olympics, let alone competing in them. He'd tell people stuff like that. It was humiliating because everyone always knew he was lying. [/quote]
