Two Pints Of Lager And A Packet Of Lies, Please

2 months ago 16th May 15:13

That great institution, the British pub, is many things to many men, but for nearly two-thirds of young men it’s the place where they gather to brazenly tell a tale or two in order to impress their mates or members of the opposite sex.

Research conducted by learndirect Careers Advice reveals that 60% of men between the ages of 19 and 25 often tell little white lies in the pub.

For those blokes who admit to being a little economical with the truth, the figures show that:

1. 47% claim to possess a skill or talent they don’t have

2. 31% boast about being better at a sport than they really are

3. 27% frequently exaggerate about their work related responsibilities to give the impression they rule the roost

4. 31% lie about owning shiny new goods such as a car or electronic equipment
