Instance description for federated visitors
If anyone ever told a believable lie and then called you gullible, that's stupid.
The point of "messing with someone" is to toe the edge of what is believable to see how they react. If you end up straying into the realm of "totally unbelievable" without an incredulous reaction, then the label of "gullible" is deserved.
It's like a friendly duel of wits. An opportunity to sharpen each other's blades without any stakes. Probably a social survival mechanism.
I am horrible at lying and I don’t understand how people can do it so easily. Not just the instant creativity of coming up with something plausible, but then they have to remember that AND whom they told which lie to, in case that gets referenced or brought up later. How on earth do you manage something like that?
Lie as little as possible, and always tell them to different groups that won't discuss them with each other.
