You may say almost anything online, or haven't you realized that? Unfortunately, some people actually do that.

Some people might be looking for likes and compliments online in an effort to enhance their egos. Others might be spinning intricate tales in an effort to advance themselves or even con readers.

Fortunately for us, they are quite lousy liars, so the outcomes may be amusing and cringe-inducing when we see through their blatantly ridiculous lies. That is just the kind of embarrassing Instagram post that Totally True Story collects.

It's wise to develop your common sense, especially if you spend a lot of time online. These cute little lies are usually as innocent as they come.

You can use your common sense to spot risky hoaxes, false news campaigns, and other deceptions that are ubiquitous in the Wild West of the Internet. You might believe these tales to be fiction, or you might believe they may be true.

But this post is a wonderful chance to practice using your common sense and "BS radar" to see if you can spot false information online. Then you can decide if lying increases or decreases when individuals are online.

Keep scrolling and enjoy these stories.

On the one hand, people may feel that they can get away with more when they are anonymous and remote. On the other hand, the possibility that hundreds or even millions of people will read your message increases the likelihood that you will be held accountable.

8. Life getting so weird

9. Extreme dad jokes

10. She's hooked up with the cop

11. It's going to be okay
