I asked a related question about how often you lie, on a daily basis, but I think this is more apropos for today's general aesthetic.

I'm honest enough I worry about people finding me online, but I will occasionally shift the dates of things happening to me if I'm worried it will be too revealing and I've told some other white lies before as well. The only one that is coming to mind at the moment is I told a dead by daylight streamer I had used Zanshin Tactics to help learn Artist, when in fact I hadn't got the perk yet. I had heard a few times that it was a good offbeat pick for her to learn to predict shots though so it was a lie to make the anecdote more personal to me.
