Calling Out a Liar (1 Viewer)

[Cjw_55106]

Most of these guys seem to work in the financial industry. Few of our buddies are traders in options & fx. The constant bragging and self promotion just doesn't stop, no matter what your conversation. And when a few of them get together, it becomes a competitive event to see who can #### the most out of their mouths. And they all think of themselves as the 'alpha' of the group. lol

The jackass in the OP isn't close to being in the financial industry. He works in landscaping, meaning he works for maybe six months of the year.

Just an observation..You are in the financial industry aren't you.

Not even remotely.

I had a friend I worked with in High School that was the ultimate one-upper. All the same stories; my uncle designed the B2, my 3rd cousin is Barry Bonds, I can run a 2 minute mile...

Some of his greatest lies were those relating to the HS partying scene. He was always talking about throwing these wild parties... but no one could ever find anyone from our school who attended them. He'd come back with something like "it was spur of the moment and mostly college people..."

Anyways; one time he bragged about being able to down a 1.75 of Vodka in a single sitting. So me, a buddy of mine, and this guy all get together and stay over my buddy's house while his parents were gone. We bought 3 1.75s of Smirnoff and went to town. This guy, the one-upper, just started drinking it straight over ice in 12-14 oz glasses. My other friend and I did the same, but we replaced probably 75% of our vodka with water. The dude damn near did it; he became incoherent with maybe 1/4 of the bottle left. He ended up passed out in the bathtub with loss of all bodily function control. We really got scared he wasn't going to make it, but eventually the sun came up and all were alive to tell the tale.

I did this with a friend, not only did he #### and pee himself, but then he jumped out a second story window. Luckily he lived. The cops came and they were going to arrest me, but I gave them a shot of the leftover vodka and they let me go. Good times.

Just set his pants on fire and be done with it.

FBG took this literally.

Did i ever tell you about the time I had to dodge bullets in Bosnia.?

Did you fly in on a helicopter in a downward spiral like Hilary Clinton?

IMO, BSers and One-Uppers are two completely different animals. I'm a BSer when we're out drinking and trading stories. I'll embellish for comic effect and such. I won't one-up even if I can.

Tell him your uncle once shot and killed a Bigfoot and wait for his response.
