This is a question Bullshit and Bullshitters

We've had questions about lies and liars in the past, but this time we're asking about the sort of fantasist who constantly claims they've got a helicopter in the garden or was "second onto the balcony at the Iranian Embassy siege". Tell us about the cobblers you've been told, or the complete lies you've come out with.

Thanks to dozer for the suggestion

Not sure what prompted it
but one day I went to pick my kids up from day care and the woman at the front desk told me that Miss Shonta wanted to have a word with me. As this usually meant that my son had done something unacceptable, I walked back with some trepidation.

Miss Shonta was a very large Carribean woman with deep black skin and a booming voice. When I entered she turned, inspected me for a moment, then said, "I just wanted to make sure that you were all right."

I blinked at her for a moment. "Yes, I'm fine. Why shouldn't I be?"

She turned a rather stern gaze upon my son. "Because James told me that you wouldn't be picking him up today because while you were shaving this morning you electrocuted your face."

I looked at James, he looked at me and gave a big grin, and I just shook my head. "I use a blade."

Miss Shonta turned a librarian glare on the both of us and said nothing further as I led my little tweaker out of the room.
