Ha! Yeah, that. Maybe perversely, by going the whole hog, the sheer audacity means you're less likely to get caught, even when it's so blatant!
I always passed it up to my kind of mental illness, which means my grip on reality isn't as good as other folks, but I definitely know that even when someone obviously, blatantly lies to my face and I have the hard numbers to prove it, I still find myself going, "that can't be right... surely they wouldn't... would they?" It's really disorienting, for me anyway!
