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

Once you accept that simulating an indistinguishable subset of the universe is a computable task and that a huge amount of accidental computation happens within the universe the numbers start to look convincing.
