Lying is never a good idea. Sooner or later, the truth always comes out. And if you're spreading lies on social media, then there's a good chance that you'll be caught red-handed sooner than you expected. Because when you lie on the internet, you're lying to the world, and there's always somebody out there who's willing to call your bluff.
Take a look at this list full of funny lies of attention seekers to see what we mean. Compiled by Bored Panda, the white lie examples below serve as an important reminder that if you really must insist on pathological lying, either do it well or don't do it at all. Don't forget to vote for the funniest fibber!
UPDATE: We recreated some of the images because the original versions were pretty bad quality. That's why some of them have the same blurred profile pics. But as far as we know, all of the actual compulsive lying stories are real.

Seriously, f**k these people. You can share art that you like, but give credit! Also, this is the internet, you probably aren't going to get away with things like this.

That parrot guy is almost under every post. He sure does know a lot of people that seem to like getting caught lying by him.

Not sure what the hubbub would be about adults taking a sexuality class a way...they are over 18 in college, and the class is not mandatory, so they are choosing to take a sexuality class. Who cares?

I hate this "trend". Get people to like your status so you could get something. It is so annoying

Sarah Mark Cleverley, just because she is in a car, doesn't mean that she didn't "just get up". Some people do just get out of bed and have to quickly drive off somewhere.

There were actually some people in my middle school who could a five or six minute mile. (Not me. My best is somewhere around 10 minutes)

Funny but painful to read. Makes you really wonder about the liars. And hopefully none of them are in my life.
Many of these are funny, but the underlying reality is very sad. Look at elections in Europe and America...people speak of the "hidden" or "silent" majority, ignore facts, believe what they want to believe, blame media for reporting biased, and consider whatever they find on social media true, as long as it fits their world view. Yes, this has been always the case when a bunch of friends meet at a bar and have a few drinks, but now it is global, and it does have impact. Add a few chatbots, social media analytics, and media strategists, and you can truly influence masses. I am very concerned where this will lead.
It is funny cause 99% of these images are fake and is generated with a fake message generator
