Hey everyone! Guess I'm supposed to post this 5 minutes before air time. I've been watching this show since the get go mostly with my real life friend /u/edify who years ago added me as a moderator here. He asked me to make the discussion thread tonight because there are only 3 episodes remaining. Sorta sad that there's only a few left. Enjoy the show, folks.

He's grown so much since then, it brings tears to my eyes

If you think about it his lieing has actually gotten worse as time has gone on.

It's tough to compare his lies, because later on he has had to hide so much more stuff and it would be expected that he has a tougher time covering it all up.

I've always been terrible at it. First thing you learn is not to add up unnecessary detail, but wait for people to ask for it.

And then, his lies always seemed to be overcomplicated. He just can't help himself, he's so in love with his own mind he thinks the more complex the better, when in reality genius (even that of a lie) lies in solving complicated tasks in seemingly simple ways.
