For some reason I was pissed off at Roope. Maybe it was because the council had given him an appartment and was paying his rent. Him who has never done an honest days work in his life is no longer sleeping in a tunnel under the WestWay, but instead is warm and comfy in a one room apartment. So to make him feel less comfortable I told him Virpi was having an affair with Uno.
Virpi comes storming into the centre and her tits are on fire.
"You're a goddamned liar"
"No I'm not"
"Yes you are"
"No I'm not"
"Yes you are"
I relent. This conversation is going nowhere.
"Yes I am"
"What?"
"I'm a goddamned liar"
"So you admit it?
"Yes. I lie all the time. I lie for my own safety. I lie to make other people miserable. I blame other people for things they didn't do. I blame other people for the wrong things I do. I lie to keep secrets. I cover up things that I don't want other people to know, with a veil of lies. I lie when I get drunk cos that's what you do. Because life is boring I lie to spice things up. I lie because it makes me feel alive. Lying keeps me on my toes. Lying keeps my mind active. Lying exercises my memory. To be a good liar you need to have an exceptional memory to remember all the untruths you have told.
Virpi interupts. "But what about truth? What about trust? What about respect?"
"Yeah I suppose I can see your point" I lied.
