Hello house. Is there any one that has this problem? It seems there is a part of my brain that is wired this way for years now.

While most people lie to escape punishment and blame etc, i tend to lie for no reason atall. Sometimes i need to lie further just to modify the initial lie.

Examples:
1. I went late to work because i had to take home some office files which i worked with all through the night. When asked, i lied to my boss that i had a compound dispute tha made me come late. Saying the truth would have earned me praises from my boss and saved me alot of stress.

2. I got injured at home. When my landlady asked how, i lied that i had a serious accident when going to work that morning.
I told her a long story about the accident scene and all. She was sympatizing with me and almost wept.

These are just few examples i can type now, there is more.

I can't help but lie most of the time i have conversation with people. Any advice?

This may help... although it's about gossips. However, lies and gossips are friends or cousins:


''In Ancient Greece, Socrates had a great reputation of wisdom. One day, someone came to find the great philosopher and said to him:
- Do you know what I just heard about your friend?
- A moment, replied Socrates. Before you tell me, I would like to test you the three sieves.
- The three sieves?
- Yes, continued Socrates. Before telling anything about the others, it's good to take the time to filter what you mean. I call it the test of the three sieves. The first sieve is the TRUTH. Have you checked if what you're going to tell me is true?
- No, I just heard it.
- Very good! So, you don't know if it's true. We continue with the second sieve, that of KINDNESS. What you want to tell me about my friend, is it good?
- Oh, no! On the contrary.
- So, questioned Socrates, you want to tell me bad things about him and you're not even sure they're true? Maybe you can still pass the test of the third sieve, that of UTILITY. Is it useful that I know what you're going to tell me about this friend?
- No, really.
- So, concluded Socrates, what you were going to tell me is neither true, nor good, nor useful. Why, then, did you want to tell me this?
"Gossip is a bad thing. In the beginning it may seem enjoyable and fun, but in the end, it fills our hearts with bitterness and poisons us, too!"

who asked you?

Because hypocrisy saves no one. Marketers, drivers, passengers, etc do experience something close to hell from all sorts of touts in Onitsha.

IGBOSON1:
Will you shut up with your senseless rant!

Onitsha is a touts' city. Only place touts are collecting COVID fees, Soludo, Obi's levies at 'Head bridge'. Hawkers pay in many different places and so on and so forth...

2special:
seems theirs is worst than the south west.

They are the worst! Forget the noise from people that are obeying everything dish out to them in the East (including stay at home order on Mondays by Ipob) but would come to the West wanting every stuff to be done their own way.

In Onitsha, after paying Wheelbarrow's guy to help move your luggage between up-iweka and peace park, you would pay a tout also; then along the way, you still have to pay one or two other touts because they would keep demanding fees from the wheelbarrow's guy or they trow your stuff away; very very annoying.

He's whining up emotional Binis and Ipobs to form their country if APC won. He performs poorly in every ramification. Obaseki has nothing to offer but to hide under emotions and sentiments.

Only the gullible ones and failure like him would fall for his gimmick. A dictator and failed governor that denied some consistencies their representatives. It's no longer 'Edo no be Lagos' it's now 'no more Nigeria if APC won.' He thinks every Nigerian reason like Edo or Ipob people.

Please how do I know the one using corolla engine please

I think 2003-2008 Pontiac Vibe has 1zz-fe Corolla/Matrix engine while 2009-2010 has 2az Camry engine.

If you want same performance as Corolla for Uber, I will advise you don't buy AWD drive or GT model; go for FWD (front wheel drive). It won't drag or consume more fuel.

Cool vehicle with no single fault

Won't fly for this amount. It's just like Toks, add 300k and it's yours.

We know. Endsars people were very angry with him for the number of people killed and trew into River by him and his SARS men led by Nwafor in Anambra.

However, same Endsars gangs are now supporting him; he must have bought them over. Umahi would make a better president.
