Watched "the invention of lying" on the netflix yesterday. A fuckload better than I thought it would be. Mark our hero lives in a world where the concept of lying doesn't exist. Until one day at the bank when their system is down they ask him how much money is in his account and his destitute ass gets the idea to say more than there is. Because he said 800 instead of 300 the bank thinks its an error on the computer's part --when it comes back up. He tries in vain to show his pals his new discovery but it just doesn't work. The concept of telling falsehoods is unimaginable. Mark uses this to his advantage to become a successful screen writer and to woo his idea of a superhot bitch in Jennifer Garner. Who in AP's opinion is not hot at all and probably wouldn't even if drunk.
Mark later tries to comfort his mother on her deathbed by telling her there is life everlasting after death. Thereby creating a firestorm of attention and questions. Mark later descends from his house with the 10 rules for this life after death shit he invented written on pizza boxes. And regularly answers questions about the invisible man in the sky. However, Mark still has trouble with getting Jennifer Garner because he won't lie to get into her pants. He will lie to get close to porking that harsh looking horse faced bitch, but not to close the deal.
AP says check it out.
