Has Anyone Ever Told You A Dramatic Lie Because They Needed Something?

Long story short, I have a relative who is an addict and it is to the point it is getting out of control. She gave her brother's kids her old bat bag years ago. Recently, out of the blue she calls him and tells him she needs her bat bag back because she is coaching a friend's kid. The thing is, she has a kid and has lost custody of it and if she still has any friends, I doubt they would be letting her coach their kid.
They were pretty sure she wanted it back to try to sell it. That has become the norm.
I know people. especially addicts, will do or say whatever they think will work in order to find away to get money. Anyone ever been told a good lie that you knew was total bullshite?

How much does a crappy old bat bag go for? She should just hook.

I thought this was going to be a thread about the presidential election/politicians.

Walks up to you at gas station:
"Hey man, my car broke down and my grandmas funeral is 9 hours away and I just need enough to get a new alternator and I'll give you my address and mail you the money back and blah blah blah blah."
I tell them to frick off and die. Can't stand junkies.

Has Anyone Ever Received The Incorrect Change From A Retail Clerk?
Long story short, I stopped at Circle K on the way home one day. I was craving a PayDay candy bar, and some breath mints. Well, the clerk, who was a young African American girl, was talking on her cell phone. She was very loud and animated, which was really irritating. So as she's talking on the phone, she rings up my total, and it's $3.37. I paid with a $5.00 bill. As she's just talking away, she returns $1.36. I count it, and tell her it should be $1.63.
So she huffs and puffs, and counts it again. Her friend on the other end of the line must have really been aggravated, but this girl, after acting all exasperated, gives me the $.27 that was rightfully mine.
I had a buddy once that told me he once got shorted $5 at a fast food restaurant.
It makes you think, how much money has been stolen from the public? Anybody else got any good stories about being short changed? Let's here them.

I've dealt with Travellers and con artists while in retail and the restaurant business that had dramatic stories as their go-to lies.
Guy came into the restaurant weeping about his pregnant wife who was in the car and hadn't eaten in a week. He showed me "her" driver's license and begged me for a free to-go meal for her. I said no.
He showed up a year later, same story, same license. I chastised him for knocking up his penniless wife on an annual basis.

Pretty harsh to tell someone to die.

My cousin called me up for some "emergency abortion money", eight months later she's gotta kid and a whole bunch of Roxy Contin. I was all like "seriously?". But whatever, she named it after my favorite Simpsons character so I considered it kinda even.

Little Smithers is gonna get picked on so much as a kid.
For the fetal alcohol syndrome more than the name probably.

Ok so now I gotta know the kids name or your favorite Simpsons character. Your choice

You got the "little" part right, that kid was three pounds soaking wet.
But he'll probably get picked on for his eyes more than anything, they're almost pointed in exact opposite directions. Great peripheral vision I guess, but everything in between is gonna be unknown to that poor bastard.
I think they might make me the godfather, I'm pretty excited.
