Let's hypothetically say that your life depended on you going to the right or left on a proverbial forked road.

On the right side, telling you to go that way, was an individual that lied about their life. They lied about how grand their life was, how much money they made, their relationships, their successes. For example, they created a facade of their life, that was the polar opposite. Nothing else is a lie, they just want to let the world believe they are better off then they really are. But their lies don't impact the lives of others.

On the left side, telling you to go that way, was an individual that lied about anything and everything. What they had for dinner. Lies about events of their lives. Lied about people dying to get out of work. Lied about having a significant other. Lied about stealing from you. Lied about what time they woke up. Lied about their age. Lied about anything you can name. Hell lied about the toilet paper they bought. No rhyme or reason for the lies. But their lies can potentially impact other lies, not only their own.

Would you go right or left? Or would you put both of those people in the same boat, and view them the same?

I'd make my own path. 🤣

Lets be real, no one is 100% honest all the time. Whether they lie to themselves or others, it happens. I personally do my best to not lie but it still happens. My main motivator for not lying is I don't want others to do that to me, so i try to live/lead by example. I'm not so naive to think others aren't lying tho.

They are in the same boat but one is 1st class the other steerage. lol

As for choosing- I would do right, seeing as that seems to have the lower impact on others and more about projecting a false image about a person.

I know this riddle.

You ask the one on the left which way is the right way to go.

Then you ask the one of the right if the person on the left gave the right answer.

Boom.

I paid attention in class (not really).


You are only allowed to ask one of them one question. Not both of them.


That would be a shame because I just went out and bought myself two Reese's chocolate eggs as a reward for solving the riddle.

Now I am just eating these eggs for no reason. I can live with it.
