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

My mum...
My mum and my Gran, the pair of bastards. A little backstory? It involves the fact my Gran is Welsh, and comes from a small town in South Wales; here abides her enormous extended family.

And her sister, Aunty Dot. Who, according to my Mum and Gran was married to Tom Jones, but had since divorced... So, as a nipper I was proud as punch that I was related (by marriage) to a genuine superstar; yet as the difficult teenage years came about this pride turned to a certain horror as Mr Jones' star waned and I kept this all to myself - a sordid, dirty, vile little secret about the be-chest-wigged, curly-mopped crooner.

Then, in my twenties he seemed to blossom again - duets and suchlike lent him a certain post-ironic cachet, and I could once more announce to the world how my dear old Aunty Dot had loved and lost him; only to be told he's been married to the same fucking woman all his fucking life.

So you never read wikipedia
Or the occasional newspaper article about your famous "uncle" even in to your twenties?
