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

About as geeky as it gets BUT I SMELT A RAT
Renewing one of our H&S tickets, one of the other lads on the course was running his mouth off a bit, but still nice enough.
In any event it gets round to discussing what we all do, and I mention I specialise in transmission (the technical term for shunting data and voice from A to B in a mobile network).
Before I can get another word in, out it comes "Yeah mate fucking hell I was on this one site yeah and Ofcom calls me up yeah giving it large saying yeah you're transmitting well over your power on that link guv, WELL over your power so yeah what I do is flip the protection switch while he's on the blower and the jobs a good un, proper cunt 'e was"
Two things: (EDIT : Three. Daft cunt.)
- Ofcom aren't going to call you up. Ever.
- Protection is automatic and done in milliseconds. That's why these links cost a fucking fortune.
- The amount of cancer we're giving you (sorry, "Transmission Power") has nothing to do with protection.
In his defence we saw him again this year and he appeared to have shaken his case of the BS.

I think there was a lot of clink on the stuffer-expander.
Also the plug went in some Tizer.
