“Tell me lies, tell me sweet, little lies!”
Weaskedmembers of theBuzzFeed Communityto tell us the wildest lie they’ve ever heard someone tell.
There were some reaaaal doozies.
Here’s what people shared:
1.
He said that he was training the dog, and one day, the dog was just gone.
Essentially, he failed the course, but the dog didn’t.
For some reason, he decided to turn it into a sob story about how ‘his dog’ died.

Thus, their pen pal communications grew from there.
I love the guy, but of course, I didn’t buy it."
But, shortly before my friend died, I asked him to finally ‘fess up.
‘Come on, man!
You don’t need to impress me.
Just admit you made the whole thing up.’
Turns out it was the one and only response to his original letter.
He was so amazed he got a response that he grew to believe that they were besties.
He shrugged and said, ‘Well, he was a pretty busy guy.'"

‘Britney Spears signed my cast!’
said a girl referencing a poorly written ‘Britney’ on her arm cast, which she obviously wrote herself.
She had the cast on her dominate arm, hence the poor and shaky handwriting.
It was middle school in the 2000s, so Im not even surprised.
We all did something like that."
I was very young and had never used Tinder and had no idea how it even worked.
He sobbed and told me he was being set up.
Gotta love when the trash takes itself out."
“I once had an employee who seemed like he was going to be a good bet.
We believed him because he was really smart.
It all blew up when the manufacturer tracked him down for nonpayment.
The employee denied this, but he was busted.
All the lies he had told us began to unravel.
He told us he was a doctoral candidate at a local university.
He told us he was student-teaching at another university.
They had never heard of him.”
He was still on probation!
Always do a background check.
Liars are everywhere!"

“I grew up outside of NYC and went to college in upstate NY.
We all got in after refueling, and she pulled out of the station, narrowly missing the pump.
She was finally able to pull over and stop once we all started screaming for our lives.”

“When I was a kid, I met another kid who told me their teacher was named ‘Mr.
Even at 10, I could tell that kid was a pathological liar, lmao.”

We were watching Daisy more and seeing him less, but she was no trouble.
I thought she was dead!’
“This girl in high school lied about having cancer.
She tried to use having cancer as a way to gain friends?
The mom loses it!
She says to her daughter, ‘Stop telling people that stupid cancer story.
It’s not true!’
I noped out of there so fast, and then called her out on it at school later.
She then changed schools and continued it at her other school.”
“I was hanging out with this guy in the military.
He kept wanting to be exclusive, but I got weird vibes that I couldnt put my finger on.
Over a few weeks’ time, I heard the most bizarre lies that he swore were true.
He ended up needing a full back skin graft.
He kept going on to say how his wife left him because of it, and blah blah blah.
I found out he was still married and stepping out on her repeatedly.
It was the most bizarre, overly-detailed lie Ive ever heard.”
“My ex-girlfriend claimed her bestie was aGreekroyal.
She laughed and said, ‘No, silly.
I was born in Galway and raised for two years in Edinburgh.
Then, I moved to the US for college.
That’s how I met [my girlfriend’s named].’
She also tried to make me feel bad for asking.
Why on earth would someone lie about that?”
Her biggest lie was that she had met a famous man and they started dating.
We lived in an area that was nowhere near any place a celebrity would be.
She would text me updates on them as a couple, and the last one was that he proposed.
I never even responded with a congratulations.
Ive never forgotten it because it was so bizarre."

“I have one friend who constantly tells outrageous stories for absolutely no reason.
There are two stories that stick out when I immediately think of how wild his imagination is.
He claimed to be going over 100 MPH and was also drunk.
The officer apparently did not pursue my friend because he was so intimidated from the verbal lashing.”
I venture to avoid that friend when I can, for obvious reasons."
“When I was in middle school, one of my classmates faked her own death.
Classmates all started messaging each other and freaking out.
Everyone was posting heartfelt messages to her Facebook wall.
She didn’t return to our school after the incident.
She just inserted herself into in and told it as her own.”

“I went on a first (and last) date with a guy who was 29.
He claimed that he just did it on a whim.
Yeah, he was a liar.”
Where do I start?
During the open house, he heard a man express interest in purchasing.
And, the man agreed to bow out."
It was weird because he never ended up getting the house…almost as if it never happened!
He went through the whole process to be an agent, reaching a round of panel interviews.
He said the people who interviewed him were just so impressed by his resume and his interviewing skills.
The joke was apparently a huge hit, and they guaranteed him a job.
I followed up, and he never got the job.
Almost as if…it never happened.
Okay, wait, one more.
This might be the most obvious lie.
And their pediatrician was exclaiming that theyve never seen anything like it in their lives!!!!"
Man, oh man!
What’s the wildest lie you’ve ever heard someone tell?
