Humans are prone to lies and exxageration to enhance their social status, and a messageboard is no exception. But it gets a bit ridiculous to keep seeing stuff like this:
1)" I clear 7million a month here easily"
2) I make 100 million a year back home but I just like esl"
COME ON PEOPLE!! GIVE US A BREAK!!
Anybody spot anymore??? |

No but it does make my intelligence feel a wee bit insulted. |

I'm a doctor I'm a lawyer
I'm a movie star I'm an astronaut
And I own this bar
And I would lie to you for your love
Full lyrics & credits:
I'd Lie To You For Your Love
(Frankie Miller/D & H Bellamy/Jeff Barry)
I watched you walk into the room
I wanna say this just right
If you ain't waiting for somebody special
Would you be with me tonight
I'm a doctor I'm a lawyer
I'm a movie star I'm an astronaut
And I own this bar
And I would lie to you for your love
Yes I'd lie to you for your love
I'd lie to you for your love
And that's the truth
I could tell you what you wanna hear
And some secrets about myself
I could tell you you're the only one
And there could never be nobody else
I'm a doctor I'm a lawyer
I'm a movie star I'm an astronaut
And I own this bar
And I would lie to you for your love
Yes I'd lie to you for your love
I'd lie to you for your love
And that's the truth
I'm a doctor I'm a lawyer
I'm a movie star I'm an astronaut
And I own this bar
And I would lie to you for your love
Yes I'd lie to you for your love
I'd lie to you for your love
And that's the truth
And I would lie to you for your love
Yes I'd lie to you for your love
I'd lie to you for your love
And that's the truth |

| I always figured, when I read about six figure incomes on this board, that either someone is lying, or they need to get the life their money can buy. |

Don't be jealous of the six-figure salary: very often the price is higher than most on this board would consider paying. |
