Hmm…
I’d say the entire comic is a lie: I certainly believe people less if they unexpectedly assert that they are not lying.
Then again, maybe the comic (entitled “I’m Not Lying”) DID make me pause and ponder whether a facially implausible assertion might actually be true.
I think my brain’s going to explode.
