maybe a lot of people do, which i dont understand completely. if you are willing to tell the world the **** job you used to work, and the ****ty college you went to, why would you feel the need to lie about other things.

Re: Is it OK to lie on the Internet?

This is a thread fail.

This question is like asking "Is it okay to lie in Walmart?" or "Is it okay to lie on the telephone?" The forum you lie in doesn't matter at all. What matters is who you're talking to and what you are talking about. If you are on chat roulette and someone asks how old you are you can lie to them because it really doesn't matter. If you are applying for a credit card online then it's definitely not okay to lie. The fact that all this takes place on the internet is irrelevant.

Re: Is it OK to lie on the Internet?

Governments and Churches have been lying to us for years so lying on the internet isn't that big of a deal.

Re: Is it OK to lie on the Internet?

It's not different than lying in person and, in America at least, we are a nation of liars. Whomever gets elected President is the most convincing liar. The only way to succeed with women or in business is to be a great liar.

So, in my personal opinion, it's not cool to lie - but everybody does it. So why should the internet be any different?

Most common time it is completely standard and evidently acceptable to lie on the internet: whenever somebody disagrees with you. Nobody ever concedes a point on anything ever. Both sides keep arguing as if the other hasn't said a single intelligent thing and they are absurdly, utterly, laughably wrong. Both sides are nearly always lying. They just want to win. Just like in real life.

Re: Is it OK to lie on the Internet?

You think you're gonna to live your life alone
In darkness
And seclusion
Yeah I know
You've been out there
Tried to mix with those animals
And it just left you full of humiliated confusion
So you stagger back home
And wait for nothing
But the solitary refinement of your room spits you back out onto the street
And now you're desperate
And in need of human contact
And then
You meet me
And you whole world changes
Because everything I say is everything you've ever wanted to hear
So you drop all your defenses and you drop all your fears
And you trust me completely
I'm perfect
In every way
Cause I make you feel so strong and so powerful inside
You feel so lucky
But your ego obscures reality
And you never bother to wonder why
Things are going so well
You wanna know why?
Cause I'm a liar
Yeah I'm a liar
I'll tear your mind out
I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me
I'll turn you into me
Cause I'm a liar, a liar
A liar, a liar
I'll hide behind a smile
And understanding eyes
And I'll tell you things that you already know
So you can say
I really identify with you, so much
And all the time that you're needing me
Is just the time that I'm bleeding you
Don't you get it yet?
I'll come to you like an affliction
And I'll leave you like an addiction
You'll never forget me
You wanna know why?
Cause I'm a liar
Yeah I'm a liar
I'll rip your mind out
I'll burn your soul
I'll turn you into me
I'll turn you into me
Cause I'm a liar, a liar
Liar, liar, liar, liar

I don't know why I feel the need to lie
And cause you so much pain
Maybe it's something inside
Maybe it's something I can't explain
Cause all I do
Is mess you up and lie to you
I'm a liar
Oh, I am a liar

If you'll give me one more chance
I swear that I will never lie to you again
Because now I see the destructive power of a lie
They're stronger than truth
I can't believe I ever hurt you
I swear
I will never to you lie again, please
Just give me one more chance
I will never lie to you again
I swear
That I will never tell a lie
I will never tell a lie
No, no
Ha ha ha ha ha hah haa haa haa haaa
Sucker
Sucker!
Oh, sucker
I am a liar
Yeah, I am a liar
Yeah I like it
I feel good
Ohh I am a liar
Yeah
I lie
I lie
I lie
Oh, I lie
Oh I lie
I lie
Yeah
Ohhh I'm a liar
I lie
Yeah
I like it
I feel good
I'll lie again
And again
I'll lie again and again
And I'll keep lying
I promise

Re: Is it OK to lie on the Internet?

When I invented the internet, I didn't think people would use it for lying to each other. I don't approve.
