A yup. I have met many characters. Took the car to a local Thursday night car get together at a local hangout. A guy came up (beer in hand) and started asking about the car. I was polite and tried to tell him, but he cut me off and told me that I don't know "the real story". Then proceeded to tell me how much I didn't know about, including that the Enzo and Carroll battle was a total fix and that the late Cobras were actually built with left over GT500 chassis and parts. I just nodded and said "wow!"  Quite entertaining actually..
What else can you do?

Obvious liars make living easy.
When somone starts in with a crap story, I just put their name in the 'BS list' and move on.

Everyone is suspect.
The other side of the list is 'Likely BS-ers'.

... but it's the unlikely BS-ers that are particularly troublesome. |

Nope. Just two columns. BS and likely BS.

Yup. Like the guy years ago that had all the right buzz words and convinced me to make a flight up north to look at his NOS 427 S/O crate motor that he claimed was given to him by his father in law. Once I met him and looked at the motor, I was just pissed at myself for falling for it.
Ads insult here... on my way back to the airport I hit a nice 4 point buck deer in my rental mustang GT with only 200 miles on it!
