Long time lurker first time poster
Before I start, on a random note I have been reading all the previous QOTW at work (as you do) and was reading the premonitions one and last night thought lying would be a good topic! It's almost ironic that isn't a lie I suppose....

Anyways at my current place of hell, I mean work, there is a girl who will lie constantly. No matter what the topic of conversation is she will always have a brilliant story to top everyone elses.

General Conversation: My grandad used to fly the bombers in the war
Her: I am a fully training pilot and have flown the big lancasters (shes about 25).

GC: I saw Lee Evans live last week at the NEC he was awesome
Her: I used to be a comedian and supported Lee Evans

GC: Have you seen that celebrity circus thing?
Her: I used to be in the circus but then I had to leave to pursuit my flying career (bonus points for lying consistency)

GC: You see Star Wars last night?
Her: I used to have Jedi Mind Powers but I havn't been training as hard as I should so I have lost them.

She is almost as bad as a guy who I used to work with who claimed he knew all the top DJ's in the country, had managed to get out of paying a 50k debt back and had once owned a Ferrari F40 but had to sell it as people kept trying to steal it.

He then said he was getting married and we were all invited. We thought he was lying so didn't go. From the photos the day looked lovely...
