Joke Of The Day: An Interview With Hitler

Rubber Chicken This freelance journalist discovered Adolf Hitler was alive and well and
living in South America. He managed to wrangle a ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ interview with Hitler on the condition that he was not to reveal where Hitler was living. He went to this interview, and lo and behold, yes, it was Adolf Hitler, looking very old. He interviewed him, asking him all sorts of questions, and as a final question, asked “What are you doing now, in the twilight of your life?”

Hitler replied “Hah! Twilight of my life! I’ll have you know that I am secretly putting together the 4th Reich, right here in South America! This time we’ll do it right. We have a foolproof plan – this time we will kill EVERY JEW in the world – and 6 MEXICANS!!!”.

The journalist asked “…but…but….but why 6 MEXICANS??”

Hitler jumped to his feet and yelled “SEE, I TOLD THEM THAT NO-ONE GIVES A SH*T ABOUT THE JEWS!”

 

 

Quote Of The Day: Big Lie

Big Lie

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” ~ Joseph Goebbels

 

How To Of The Day: How To Catch A Liar

Obama smiling subtly

Pamela Meyer, the nation’s best-known expert on lying, explains how to sniff out the truth in a world of lies.

A liar often smiles subtly while telling a lie; it’s an unconscious expression of his delight in getting away with a whopper. There’s a famous photo in which Adolf Hitler was smiling while talking to British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain at the meeting where Hitler concealed that he’d already mobilized his army to attack Poland. Other signs are when a person makes big changes in posture, like slumping in his chair or looking down. There are also verbal signals. Someone may repeat a question to stall for time. A liar may swear on the Bible or his mother’s grave that he didn’t do something; it’s what I call overconvincing or overpersuading. A person giving too much detail in a story is another example.

You’ve also said that a liar doesn’t tell a story in the same way that an honest person does.

A liar frequently cuts his ending short and doesn’t express emotion while telling his story. A person telling the truth isn’t likely to end 
his story abruptly, and he tends to express a lot of emotion at the end of it. He also doesn’t usually tell a story in chronological order; he jumps around a little, according to what is most prominent in his memory.
