Me, Awe, thank you! No wait, this is a thread about lying . . . is this a trick? I'm very gullible and wouldn't know it.

Oh my, I hadn't seen a guy I liked in ages. You look like Mitch Pileggi on a day off work, only with beautiful eyes. Do looks help aspies be more accepted in society?

Sincerely, I have no idea. Logically I would say, yes it should, because we are biologically inclined to finding mates who appear healthy. I am tall at 6'3" so some might find that appealing. One thing to note about aesthetics is while there are some general rules, preference is so variant. There is not many people I do not personally find beautiful.

The entire political system would crumble to the ground, as would all of Wall Street.

I also have an extremely difficult time lying - especially when caught off-guard - and most of the time people can easily tell that I'm lying. I have a much easier time with telling half truths and lying by omission, but those still require convincing myself that, yes, what I'm saying is TECHNICALLY the truth even though it's obviously misleading.

That scenario would have it's benefits, I think...

Wall street would be pointless and make zero money if everyone was honest.

Meh I think most intelligent people understand the truth.

There's a certain transparency you get when you take it as fact that nothing anyone says matters.
