Some people seem to lead complete fantasy lives with lies stacked on lies stacked on more lies. Tell us about the ones you've met.
BTW, if any of you want to admit to making up all your QOTW stories, now would be a good time to do it.

CorrectionActually, lofichic, it depends a lot on what country you're in. Yes, a PhD is not marked in the UK, it's either accepted, accepted with corrections, or rejected (but you can often resubmit). But in a lot of European countries a PhD is marked. You don't just get pass/fail, you get grades. And yes, you can fail it.
However, if this is a UK story, there might be a few porkies told by the father, supervisors don't formally examine their own students work.
