This is a question Bullshit and Bullshitters

We've had questions about lies and liars in the past, but this time we're asking about the sort of fantasist who constantly claims they've got a helicopter in the garden or was "second onto the balcony at the Iranian Embassy siege". Tell us about the cobblers you've been told, or the complete lies you've come out with.

Thanks to dozer for the suggestion

I had a teacher with a particularly whimsical talent for revenge.
On April fool's day, we'd always try something on Mrs. Bond. Maybe we'd turn our chairs around so we were facing the wrong way round when she walked in, maybe somone would hide her fags, something like that.

She'd always take in her stride with professionalism and grace, and quickly get the class back under control, and move on to today's experiment.

Year 1: Examining beakers of water with a magnifying glass to identify kirlian motion in water bubbles and write up our findings. This required absolute silence, so as not to introduce vibrations and muck up our results.

Year 2: Going outside on a sunny day, lying on the grass with an ear to the ground and listening for the tell-tale hiss of grass osmosing.

She had the best poker face of anybody I've ever met.
