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.

Wendy the liarWhat makes this story funnier is that everyone involved were in the hard Left of student politics.
Wendy (changed name, of course) lied so consistently about herself that she eventually rose to the role of President in a student association. These lies conveniently placed her on just about every notch on the Wheel of Misfortune, allowing her to speak authoritatively on subjects like lesbianism and Islam, sometimes simultaneously. How was she muslim? Oh, just a little incident in Morocco involving drug smuggling and a visa-marriage.
Let's see… she crashed her dad's helicopter and survived. Was a junky until her boyfriend died. She crucified an ex-boyfriend's cat with a nail gun. Etc, etc.
She also once drove in excess of 200kmp/h with me in the back seat clinging for dear life on the basis that her dad (so high up in police hierarchy that he could afford his own helicopter for the farm, doncha know) had insisted on getting her high-speed driving lessons.
It all came undone when she invented a fantasy relationship with one of our friends. Being a devout, very funny, very handsome young muslim, he was totally oblivious that she was telling everyone that they had a secret sexual relationship. Wendy then went on to destroy another woman's character based solely on her supposed violent jealously of this relationship.
Wendy was regaling us with a tale of a confrontation the two women had after a meeting, when it clicked that I was there and none of this happened. In a flash, I realised that we'd all been embarrassingly hoodwinked by very transparent fibs. Without thinking I blurted out, "Oh my fucking god. You're a total liar." Wendy got angry. Very angry.
Towards the end Wendy confided to a select few that she was a spy for ASIO recruited by MI5 in relation to her connections to the IRA.
Funnily enough, it took about a year for everyone in that social circle to realise just how much of a liar Wendy was.
Weird thing was, Wendy was physically repulsive; obese, late 20s with braces. She claimed that African men found her hot. This is when I tweaked earlier that she might be a liar. But then, one night when we were out, three good looking African men propositioned her. So I figured the other stuff was true, too.
