I’m sure you’re right. I’ve dealt with known liars (work subordinates and some colourful family members) and it’s still shocking to me when one of them lies right to my face when we both know the truth.
Sometimes I give them a shot at telling the truth anyway, and they never fail to remain true to bad character. It’s an interesting experience in human relationships and pathology. I wish I could have seen the dynamic between McCarthy and the BPE.
Well, well, well.
