    It seems nothing gets the good people in here so upset as lies. We all seem to be extra sensitive to lies and damned lies because of being victimized by one of the biggest lairs around, the WTS.

    But have you ever really tested yourself to find out if you are really Snow White yourself? You got the guts to find out? Try this link below to see where you stand...

    You might find this website pretty interesting as well to see just how widespread lying is and the most common lies, and much more:

    Finally, do you have the guts to print out the results of your test here?

    Simple Fibber

    Doesn't lying just suck? It's icky. Why do people do it? Why does it happen at all? Wouldn't the world be much more pleasant place if people just didn't lie?

    Well, Simple Fibber, you sure ask a lot of questions and you've been asking them your whole life. When most kids stopped asking things like, "Why is the sky blue?" you just kept at it. This makes you a very thoughtful person, and if you have taken your inquisitiveness to the library, well, by now you may actually be a pretty knowledgeable person.

    We find that most of the people who take our quiz turn out to be Simple Fibbers. Not because there are more simple fibbers in the world, but because lying bothers the simple fibber and they are more likely to answer all the questions of our survey. They are actually aware of when they are lying and they frequently make the more difficult choice and will tell the truth, regardless of the consequences to themselves.

    Simple fibbers will very often find themselves with other simple fibbers because Pathological Liars and Big Liars give them the creeps. Pathological Liars and Big Liars are out there preying on Average Liars but simple fibbers very very infrequently fall for it. Simple fibbers are more inclined to have done therapy, be regular members in a church or be in recovery. They very often surround themselves with lots and lots of good friends who guide and protect them. They also spend a good deal of their time guiding and protecting other people.

    Simple Fibbers very often have a cherished concept of a loving God, whom they view as offering guidance and meaning to their lives.

    Simple Fibbers understand concepts like honor and duty. And while they are often involved in public service, they never do it begrudgingly or over do it. They know their own limits.

    Simple Fibbers are people who feel comfortable in their own skin and while they may wish to be Saints one day, they know that for today they are who they are. They will strive to be their best for any one day.

    not sure about the god/religion stuff, that doesn't fit me at all but oh well...interesting quiz! thanks!

    I Ain't No Saint, but I guess I'm not too bad. Here are the results of the test:

    Average Liar

    You are a hard one to read. You might have been lying each time you clicked an answer or you might have been telling the truth. Chances are good you at least believe you were telling the truth.

    You think of yourself as a decent and loving person. You like to have fun but within reason. You do your best not to hurt other people's feelings, even if it might put you in uncomfortable situations sometimes. That can lead to problems. Every once in a while you have seen yourself explode because people just aren't noticing how damn nice you are all the time!

    You should get more credit. And you try harder sometimes. But things don't always work out the way you plan.

    You make a good partner a relationship and you usually don't find trouble being monogamous. Your partners have been a different story. Well, take some comfort from Lies People Tell -- it's not your fault. Some people are just, well, liars -- even worse than you.

    I notice that the label you give yourself, is the label they give you for your description. Interesting, maybe after that set of questions, we all figure out our lying comfort zone, and so answer the last question honestly.

    Iow, the test doesn't seem to be a point based test at all. If you click on "saint" however, it takes you to a description for pathological liar.

    If this type of thing was done right, I think it could be very telling.

    Pathological Liar

    If you find yourself unable to establish true and loving connections with human beings, you just might be a pathological liar. Hey -- this isn't such a bad thing. You are a damn charismatic person and you usually find a way to make things work out just the way you please.

    The trouble is, and you probably already know this, sooner or later the shit hits the fan and you end up hightailing it out of town -- but usually with a suitcase full of other people's money.

    You are the star of your own feature motion picture and it really is an exciting one! Sometimes even law enforcement agents costar.

    Yes, you do have sex more than the average bear but you don't tend to find yourself waking up next to the same person for more than six months or a year. Life is not exciting enough for you that way. You tend to spice it up by creating a few different identities and then spreading out your love juices between three or four different people who do not know about each other. NOW THAT'S EXCITEMENT.

    LOL. The worst thing is I answered the questions honestly (which actually should be impossible for me)!

    I got the same result as Jan, and it was not even close to what I expected.

    Shows to go ya that these tests are complete and utter bullshit.

    You guys have to admit that even if the test is a bit screwed, it gives you a few good questions to think about doesn't it? Really, if you study sociology you soon recognize that small lies are an essential part of our everyday world. We don't want to burden other people with how we feel sometimes so we tell a small lie and say we are okay, or whatever. Few of us really delight in hurting others feelings and even fewer of us guys will answer our sweetie if she asks us: Do you think this makes me look fat?

    But do all the small lies equal one biggie? We see people lie on their posts in here. Which is rather amazing if you ask me because of the "paper trail" that comes back to bite you in the ass. I really haven't figured out the motive for lies like this, but it could be that we just get into the habit of telling these to ourselves and *pop* out they come.

    Skipper,

    Really, if yo study sociology you soon recognize that small lies are an essential part of our everyday world.

    Exactly. You have to study it (or be a keen observer of yourself and fellow humans) to realize how common "small" lies are. A person telling the truth always could simply not function in our society (and, I hasten to add, even less in many other soeicties).

    Most people are simply unaware of how horrible liars they are

    I'm an average liar.

    Is anyone completely honest ALL the time?? Especially men???
    I would question their sanity if they were.

    Wife: "Honey, do these pants make my butt look big"?

    Husband: "Yes, dear, if your butt were a mountain, it would be called
    Everest"!

    The next sound you will hear is the agonizing cries of pain coming from the husbands hospital bed.
