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

That is not what I meant.
If I give you my beer I am merely doing just that -- I am transferring it to your keeping. If I gift you it I am making you its legal owner and, if it's a very very expensive beer with tax implications, we'll need to pay some tax too.
Give does not mean "transfer legal ownership to without remuneration" (or however a lawyer would put it).

Is there a box anyway you can tick
to "gift aid" the beer? Then the treasury can gift me another 20% of the beer you gifted me, too.
