Though they might deny it. Here are only a few of the whoppers I believed when I was younger:

• Smokey (the cat) would walk down to the grocery store, take off his fur, and smoke crack.
• Before I was born, Noah put on his super-man cape and tried “flying” and fell into the bushes. It was claimed our parents couldn’t find him for three days.
• The family that was walking towards our hotel room in Vermont was going to steal said hotel room thus I had to hide under the bed.
• The parents found (name of sibling here) in a dumpster.
• Mom ran away and joined the circus to escape me.
• The raccoon on the roof was going to break through the glass window and murder me if I fell asleep.
• Freddy Krueger was going to get me when I sleep.
• That I wouldn’t get in trouble when Adam positioned me in front of Noah’s room with my middle finger raised.
• No Doubt wrote “Just a Girl” about Noah.
