If you have ever been caught red-handed in a lie, you know how severely embarrassing it can be. Whether it was an innocent fib or full-blown deceit, your mind inevitably starts racing, thinking of all the ways to save your reputation. Luckily for us, though, these stories are hilariously entertaining. Recently, author and columnist Séamas O'Reilly posted a tweet about an elaborate childhood lie that involves a school essay, an "Icelandic Fish Festival" and the King honoring him by his presence and chatting with him directly.
As if the tale is not wild enough, he then asked his followers to share "the best, worst, and most excruciatingly stupid lies" they've ever been busted with — and boy, did they deliver! Thousands of people rolled up their sleeves and typed out the mortifying moments that turned out to be so ridiculous and amusing, that it almost pardons them of their wrongdoings.
So buckle up and grab a bucket of popcorn because we at Bored Panda have collected some of the funniest stories from this thread. Upvote the ones you liked most and be sure to share your own embarrassing mishaps with us in the comments!
