If you ask me how I am, I will always say, I'm fine.
I could have just stubbed my toe.
I could have lost all my money on cryptocurrency.
But don't worry, I'm fine.
It's not just us.
Absolutely no one on this planet could live without lying.
Imagine telling the truth when your doctor asks you how much alcohol you drink.
In a week, on average.
I'll give you a figure, but it will be my weekend average.
I told you, I'm British.
We drink our alcohol in pint glasses.
If you don't know what a pint glass is, it's a glass you can fit your fist into,
Lying is useful.
It can keep us in denial of our responsibilities.
It can help us avoid protracted conversations we don't want to have.
Sometimes, lying is the right thing to do.
God forbid you should ever find me underneath the wheels of a bus.
For goodness sake, do not tell me the truth.
Tell me for a fact you know that I'm going to be OK.
