Tip of the day.... Never believe a word you hear from someone trying to chat you up. We learned this morning that many people tell fibs when trying to impress a member of the opposite sex. It seems it's now the norm to invent "fake hobbies" to look cool. We heard from people who had pretended they could cook and were caught out. We heard from people who claimed to have read books that they hadn't.
However, most worryingly... the most popular fake hobby was horse riding. Why? Why would you tell someone you could ride a horse when you've never been up on one?!!! Anyhow, we heard many stories of broken limbs, failed relationships and testicles like watermelons - all because of this fake hobby. Hence the picture of the day!
We also talked about people who claim your work or ideas as theirs. This goes on quite a bit in workplaces - and is particularly nasty. We mentioned this because of Gary Peach who claims it was he that came up with Neil Armstrong's classic "One Small Step for Man" quote. You can read more about Gary's claims here.
Couple of other bits from today's show....
- It seems we don't need these anymore!
- Would you marry someone with the same name as you?!
- Fancy understanding your dog's woofs? Now you can!
