I've not had to lie on my CV (resumé for all you 'merkins) for a while, but way back when I was a teenager and C was a cool programming language, I listed it as one of my skills.
My new boss was remarkably nice about me spending my first week's employment reading a "how to program in C" book.

While sifting through applications for a bog-standard data entry position, I arrived at the pile of blatant dole CV's that had been sent to every other job in the entire town.
The best one was from a girl who's only other experience was 'On the counter on Boots at christmas but I got asked to leave' and her personal statement was that 'I have been on the sick for the last six months but its a bit boring now.'
