Fibbing Friday (8/28/20)

Fibbing Friday (8/21/20)

(Once again I find myself taking part in another Fibbing Friday exercise in mendacity, this one posted by pcivguy. This one has to do with Harry Potter, and admittedly I've only seen the movies so no doubt I'll answer all the questions wrong. Link below.) https://pcguyiv.wordpress.com/2020/08/21/fibbing-friday-august-21st-2020/ Why did Harry Potter live with the Dursley’s when … Continue reading Fibbing Friday (8/21/20)

Fibbing Friday (8/7/20)

(Taking part in another Fibbing Friday, as prompted by pcguyiv. This one is a little different because instead of questions requiring false answers, this one features words requiring false definitions. I like this twist, and it shows that the celebration and promotion of lies can take other forms. Link below to original post below.) https://pcguyiv.wordpress.com/2020/08/07/fibbing-friday-august-7th-2020/Continue reading Fibbing Friday (8/7/20)

Beach Hill Reopens Beaches

(I initially wrote this for an online satirical website, but it was turned down, so I rewrote it for my site.  Beach Hill is a fictitious beach town along the California coast and the events in this piece are also fictitious, but like all satire it's based on real events.) Despite the recent increase in … Continue reading Beach Hill Reopens Beaches

Fibbing Friday (7/10/20)

(Been a while since I participated in Fibbing Friday, and now feels like the time to give it another go. This prompt is from pcguyiv, and I like the questions for this one. These questions really stirred the inner liar that's trapped inside me under so many layers of boring, sober, dull honesty. Enjoy! Link … Continue reading Fibbing Friday (7/10/20)

Fibbing Friday (5/1/20)

(More fun things to do during lockdown, improving how to lie.  This week's Fibbing Friday is prompted by pcguyiv, and the theme appears to be finding differences among similar things and similarities among different things.  All a bit confusing, but I attempted to come up with the best falsehoods I could in this reciprocating prompt.  … Continue reading Fibbing Friday (5/1/20)

Fibbing Friday (4/24/20)

(Once again accepting the invite to be a lying, deceiving scoundrel, courtesy of pesitivity101.  I was busy on some other projects so I wasn't going to take part, until I read the post and ideas were set off in the deceitful part of my mind.  Link below.) https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2020/04/24/fibbing-friday-24th-april/ 1.
