Contest: Tell a Lie in Six Words For the month of April, we’re asking Sixers to write their best lies. You’ve risen to the duplicitous challenge with timeless white lies ("I've read the terms and conditions") and hungover promises ("I'll never drink that much again"). Some lied to themselves to avoid embarrassment ("Nobody will think that's a zit”) and suspicion (“Wasn’t sleeping! Just resting my eyes”). Sixes twisted the truth to keep up appearances ("The Tooth Fairy dropped the money"), or didn’t reckon with reality’s cruel truths until much later ("Until death shall do us part"). What’s your Six-Word Lie? We can’t wait to hear it (honestly).
