I had a friend in college who lied all the time. About stupid stuff. I think just to see if she could get away with it. [Well, in fairness, she was also very depressed and completely undiagnosed.] She eventually dropped out of school after she had alienated all of her friends (one of the things she was lying about was whether or not she was showing up to take tests in her classes). A quick Google search indicates that she went to UK (Kentucky, not England), joined a band there and got married while on air to a dj at the college radio station there. Gotta love the internet.

I used to work with someone who lied constantly. Tall stories. You could tell one was coming because he would preface it with, "no shit." He clearly had some much deeper psychological problem, but I really didn't care to go in there.
