I feel justified in lying just to get someone the hell out of my face. I'll say "Done."...because it'll get done. When have I ever not gotten it done? Tell me. Never, that's when. 
Quit harassing me.

I find this sort of lying is necessary in when dealing with supervisors. Mothers, as well.

I won't tell if you won't tell.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
