Men Are Bigger Liars..!!

Believe it when women say their partners are bigger liars than them, for a new survey has revealed that males tell twice as many lies as females...



The survey by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment to mark the launch of ‘Lie to Me’ Season 1 on DVD, revealed that men tell six fibs a day on average to their partner, boss and work colleagues. This makes it to 42 lies a week, 2,184 a year, or a staggering 126,672 in an average lifetime.

However, women come out with just three porkies a day - or 68,796 in a lifetime. The poll showed "Nothing’s wrong, I'm fine" is the top lie told by men and women. "Body language is a great way of telling someone is lying," The Daily Express quoted body language expert Richard Newman as saying.



"Yet most people can’t read the signals. They assume someone hiding the truth avoids eye contact. The opposite is true. Liars usually do everything they can to convince you - sitting still and looking at you to watch your reaction. "Touching your face and rapid blinking are massive
giveaways. But even the world’s top expert can only read up to 85 per cent of lies from body
language," he added.

Top lies at work included: Nice to see you again, I missed your call, The traffic was bad,I’ll give
you a ring, My alarm didn’t go off and The train was delayed.Still, more than four out of five people said that they could easily tell if their partner was lying, and more than half had been caught out trying to lie to their partner. Almost a quarter of couples have rowed about lies, with seven per cent splitting up because of it.

Nine per cent of people had got into trouble at work by lying.

Most Miserable Day Of The Week..It's Not Monday !!

Monday was always assumed to be the day we are most miserable, but in a recent market research it turns out that, Wednesday is the worst day of the week...!

That’s the claim of two American mathematicians, who analyzed words used in 2.4 million internet blogs such as Twitter, giving a score out of nine depending on how positive they were.


Christopher Danforth and Peter Dodds, of Vermont University, gave words like free, fun, rainbow and sex an eight plus score, while words such as betray, cruel, hatred and suffocate all scored less than two.

Saturday and Sunday rated predictably well but, most shockingly, Monday came out as the second happiest day of the week, partly because people were still reminiscing about the weekend, the British newspaper Daily Telegraph reported on Sunday.

However by Wednesday, these feelings had subsided. Christopher Danforth said: “People’s daily experience is being reflected somewhat in what they’re saying. And this is more of a story, we think, for Twitter messages, which we’ve just started to pay attention to, about a year ago.


“They think that they are communicating with friends, but since blogs are public we’re just looking over their shoulders. The weekends tend to be fairly happy and Wednesday turned out to be the saddest day in our study.”

The expert added: “What we’re attempting to do is measure collective happiness on a much larger scale, similar to measuring the temperature outside.

“The energy of a few molecules bouncing around doesn’t give a good indication of heat, you need billions or more.”
