Today, I was telling my friends a story. I added a few "embellishments" to make it more intense. One my friends piped up with, "I was with you, half of what you just said wasn't true". It's now all over Facebook and I'm known as "The Bullshitter". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I lied and told my friends I was a compulsive liar. Well, I think I lied. FML
Today, a coworker told me something I didn't realize was confidential, until later when my boss called me, saying someone may have shared something confidential with me, and me, not thinking so, said I don't think anyone did. We hung up, they called back and elaborated, and it dawned on me now they think I'm a liar. FML
Today, at a party I bumped into a friend of my ex. We caught the same bus home. He started telling me about my ex's "totally insane" ex-girlfriend. He refused to believe me when I told him he was talking about me. I had to sit there for half an hour as my personality was ripped to shreds. FML
Today, I had to make up a story about my "friends" at school so my mom doesn't keep telling I'm a loser. FML
Today, I posted on my Facebook wall that I'd gotten into a huge bar fight and had the shit kicked out of me, all to avoid having to tell the truth, namely that I'd stayed home all night because nobody invited me out to party. FML
Today, someone reckoned that I would never be in a relationship. So I made up this whole story about some made up guy named 'Nick' and posted stuff on my Facebook and Myspace that I'm dating him. Now all my friends want to meet him. FML
Today, my boss expected me to corroborate her lie to a customer. She changed her story suddenly and I got caught up in the crosshairs. Then she got mad at me for not understanding what just happened. FML
Today, my college instructor told me I hadn't actually failed a big exam as he originally said. It turns out he'd mixed me up with another student. Now thanks to the power of gossip, half my class thinks I slept with him so he'd switch my grade with the other student's. FML
Today, I found out that the reason all my former friends believed a bunch of rumors about me was because the person they were hearing them from was my former roommate. For two years I wondered why they didn't just ask me, now I know it's because they thought if anyone would know the truth, it would be her. UGH. FML
Today, I told my friend about a fight I had earlier with my girlfriend. He thought it'd be funny to use my phone while I was in the bathroom and text her "ure such a cunt". She wouldn't believe the truth, even when my friend confessed to her. She thought I paid him to take the fall. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

deserved it for lying

I had a friend that used to bullshit constantly. She would say things happened when I was there and they did not happen. One time I was telling her about something someone had just said to me on my way to meet her, and she started saying I was bullshitting and that she was there and something else happened, which was not the case. I stopped talking to her after that.

I think we used to have the same friend.. lol but really the person I knew alwaaaaays lied and exaggerated things but she'd be the first to publicly call you if one slight detail was off with something you said.. even if she was wrong and you were telling the truth she'd make a scene about it.

exaggerate sounds a while lot better than "embellish" which implies you added the aspects which did not exist at all vs grandizing aspects that were true. everyone exaggerates things even accidentally but sorry intentionally changing a story to sound cool is lying.. I've had friends who did this all the time to impress people, and it was very hard not to want to shut them up . It is also equally frustrating seeing people believe things about others that you know is a complete lie... kinda makes you wanna scream
