Funny white lies people tell...

    have you ever heard a lie that literally makes your mouth drop open like you are pronouncing the name "Dro-gba"  in syllables.  Or  could even make you want to clap at the person's face accompanied with a comment such as "uncle you can lie o!"
       Well I had been in such a situation before.  It all happened when this guy walked into the hair saloon,  which happened to take care of both male and female hair needs. His phone  rang soon afterwards and he shared great displeasure over the name displayed on the screen "why can't this girl just leave me alone?"  he complained, but he picked up finally after putting the call on loud speaker. "sugar what's up?" he began, well that intro raised a brow as the statement before the call and now, were clearly contradictory...  But that wasn't even the main "coco".  She replied warmly too, accompanied with the question "where are you?" hmm...  Whether he was afraid of her companionship I am unsure but the next response was a rather straight forward lie "I am in class"  he replied and the lady seated close to him gave him the look of... " son, does this look like a classroom?"
   The girl asked the question again,  accompanied by the statement "but I'm  in class as well... Where are you exactly?"  he made to come up with another response...  When she added as a matter of urgency  " we are about to write Mr Dickson's test o!"
     He immediately  jumped up, before shouting "I'm coming to class now!"  and I gave him one of those kelvin Hart's "karma got you" priceless looks as he rushed out of the saloon.
     It's a good thing people's pants don't really go in flames when they lie. But after that experience I was able to come up with a short list of some white lies...

It wasn't me- this lie could be a wrong move, when there is clear evidence.  Such as oil in your hands,  a clear evidence that you tampered with the pot of soup...

Yea Exactly- people use this where they do not know the meaning or do not understand what has been said...  But they do not want to draw attention to it.

I can't hear you- cheating folks use this tactics once in a while.  That moment when you are with Bae 1 and Bae 2 calls. It turns immediately to a "mobile network problem."

We met at the Airport  remember?- this is called "a lure for conspiracy"  kind of lie.  A situation where party B doesn't remember the event because it never happened.  But you badly want to create a picture for party C and you need back- up. It could come up in situations  when you met bae on line and mum is asking "how did you guys meet?"

Tell the person at the door that I'm  not at home/ tell them I'm  sleeping- I wonder how some parents were able to pull off this lie by using their kids as a medium, without looking bad #lol#

I'm  not ready for a relationship right now- it means I'm  not feeling you in particular.

I don't usually do this, you must be special- don't be carried away, it's a punch line.

I swear I don't know why this lady keeps calling- hmm...  After giving her  your number #wash#...

Go and Wear your shoes I will wait for you- an age long tactics used by our parents to buy time when they have plans to leave the house without us...

I  don't have the change- after checking out the bus or cab you just flagged down and it doesn't look mechanically ok or comfortable ... You immediately claim not to have the change.

I forgot my wallet- guys use this when they want you to handle the bill...
