Today, I was telling my friends a story. I added a few "embellishments" to make it more intense. One my friends piped up with, "I was with you, half of what you just said wasn't true". It's now all over Facebook and I'm known as "The Bullshitter". FML

YDI for making shit up, and YDI, for thinking you would get sympathy here

Yep, this has bullshitter written all over it. You are an idiot, op.

remember who was with you, and if they tell other people what you say then they really arent your friends, you might want to get new freinds and either not lie or remember who was with you, that way you can tell the people that weren't with you the story

There's a difference between hyperbole and a blatant lie.

Did exaggerate this to? Make this up? Congrats you got it published... We all know it's fun to exaggerate stories but still with a friend being there it changes the whole line...

YDI. If I were your friend, I'd end our friendship. Who knows what else you've been lying about?

that's a bit harsh. Ending a friendship because OP spruked up a story that might've been a bit bland is a bit rough. Being friends with someone is getting to know them and their behaviours and should they continually exaggerate things, wouldn't you tell them to simply cut the crap?

This is why you make sure nobody else involved is around before you tell the story

Embellishments are what make good storytelling! Has anyone seen the movie Big Fish? Seems people don't care about the art of oral story telling anymore. FYL
