              Which isn’t the case here.

              “lying” means “saying something that you know is untrue with the goal of deceiving someone into believing it”

              You can lie as a mean joke on someone’s expense (haha look at that idiot believing my lie)

              But if you don’t actually intend to deceive someone beyond the end of your joke, you’re not lying. You’re joking.

                  Hahahahaha you literally couldn’t have picked a worse candidate for that accusation.

                  When my dad died 19 years ago, I adopted his habit of never lying to the best of my efforts.

                  So you literally picked the only person you’ll probably come across in your life who doesn’t lie and called them a “compulsive liar”. That’s am impressively big miss actually!
