Well I lied to my family growing up I pretended to be a boy when my nature told me other wise. And well I have lied on the internet mostly on Second Life that I was a real girl. Neither of which is true.

I know most think Second Life is lame. But it felt oh so good to be the real me for once since I can't really in real life.

I don't tell white lies very often, usually for simplicity or toning down my opinions so that I don't make enemies with everyone I disagree with.

I told someone that I fought a tyrannosaurus rex with a mining helmet while riding a huge bear, in the middle of the arctic wearing only my underwear. I wasn't really wearing any underwear that day.

I once said I ate a 150-page book over the course of 24 hours for £20. I had people believing me for 3 years.

I did however eat 4 pages of someone's biology coursework for a fiver (yes, I'm that guy that eats things if you pay him)

:EDIT:
Because I can't spell tonight, apparently.

I don't. Or, at least, haven't for years.
I prefer to lie by omission. Or via wordplay to make people think I've said something I haven't.

I used to pretend I was interested in sex stuff, if that counts. To fit in.

Sweet buttered baby jesus, where to start? Lemme put it this way. I have a good half-dozen internet accounts That I won't even go near for fear that I'll encounter some of the people I lied to. Yeah. Then again, who didn't bullshit a little when they first found the internet? I just happened to bullshit ALOT.

I saw a documentary where a young dude was almost fully paralyzed physically and he said he liked playing Second Life because in the game no one knew about his disabilities. Just because its a game doesn't mean it can't have some sort of greater meaning to you.

...I'm really a black man.

Kidding aside, I generally don't lie about myself; can't keep a straight face.

Every time one of those "Enter your age" things come up.
Fo' sho'! According to those, I was born every January 1st between 1920 and 1990. I wonder if they keep track of what people enter in those. I'd be rather interested in comparing the results to how many people can statisticslly be expect to have been born January 1st.

Also, I've let people believe I'm German when they've confused my accent. I do this because I really can't be bothered explaining to the guy at the kebab place where the island of my birth is. Because they never know it and I've had this argument and I'm only here to spend some money for an item or service and you're only asking to be nice and I just really don't want to explain to strangers how to find a place they've never heard of and I don't really want to talk about personal details with random people, okay?/rant

I don't lie to people I know or people I KNOW I'm going to encounter in the future.

That being said.

Random people whom come across me... well... they're too good to pass up for some fun.

A couple of years ago I was on break from work and decided to buy a cassette converter for one of the company trucks so I could listen to my laptop through the pickup's sound system. Well, while I was sitting in my car fiddling around with the packaging (to this day, I don't know why I was so damned intent on opening the package, considering I have only a CD player in my car) I didn't really take notice of the pickup that had pulled next to me in the parking spot. Then after a while, I get a shout out from a woman half hanging out of the passenger side of the window. She's obviously blitzed, and once she finds she got my attention, she smiled charmingly and said this: 'Hey, what's you're name?'

Me: 'I'm C.J.'

A long pause, then this: 'My friend and I were checking you out; but she thinks you're a girl. I win 5 bucks if you're really a guy.'

Me, I smile back and lower my voice slightly: 'Well, what do YOU think?'

At this point, I hear some commotion from the passenger side, something about me being a dyke. Up until that comment, I WAS going to tell the truth; but a little switch went off inside me said 'Fuck this *****; she's losing five bucks!'

The girl I've been talking to leans back out the window and says, 'I think you're a guy.'

I lean out my window as well (I don't really have much of a chest for a woman, anyway, and I know that if I hold my posture at certain angles, I can definitely pull off looking like a guy) I replied back: 'Well, looks like you won yourself five bucks, have fun tonight, girls.' With that, I drove off, laughing all the way back to work.

I've worked hard my entire life to get where I am.

Even though I sorta just skated through college on scholarships and didn't have to work. And my dad got me my first, and second job. And I had the good fortune of having a best friend, with rich parents, who will let me be her housemate. And I lucked into my current job.

But I totally work hard at what I do! Honest......

How old I am, sometimes I get away with being close to 2000 years old.

I once convinced a guy that I was interested in him. I wanted him break up with his girlfriend, because I was interested in her more =P

That I took on a wolf with my bear hands. The hardiest part was wrestling the bear.

I was surprised she believed me, silly girl.
My (drug-free) brother has concinced 3 different people (that I know of) that he has a coke addiction. His impression of a coke-head is actually somewhat....unsettling. Almost convinced me.
...Anyway. Thought it was relevant.

I know a guy who brags all the time about how much sex he's had, so I completely downplay my relationship history in conversation with him. I think I might have convinced him I'm gay or asexual, but it's not clear to me.

Come to think of it, I've completely hidden a relationship from my family because they were implying creepy things about the reason I'd date people. My girlfriend was bothered by my (perhaps biased) description of the situation, so I left my family with the impression that I've been eternally single.
