. . . is it always wise?
Honey, do these pants make my butt look fat?
No, darling, you butt makes your butt look fat.
Discretion is not only the better part of valor, it's essential to happy relationships.
@Setanta,
Be honest with your data and cautious with your opinions?
That's not bad--but i would add that it would be best to lie in order to preserve one's relationships.

No, Darling, you're the same svelte nymph you were when i first laid eyes on you.
@Setanta,
Maybe it should be the doctor's oath, First Do No Harm, followed by, Remember Who You're Talking To, as the measurement of truth?
You're nailing this down, Boss.
Claim sudden onset deafness.
@Setanta,
Not long ago my 6yr old daughter said, "Daddy that sweatshirt makes you look less-fat than you really are".
I think I laughed for 10 minutes while she stared quizzically at me wondering what was so funny.
@Setanta,

Caution: Too much sarcasm can result in a backlash.
I think this all comes down to knowing your audience (and whether they perceive life as a comedy or a tragedy).
@rosborne979,
I'd like to suggest a swap.
I'll send you Set if you send me that sweatshirt.

@rosborne979,
I can get him packaged up quickly. Your daughter will find him entertaining, and he's very good with dogs.

But I love that sweat shirt. It makes me look less fat than I really am. Now that I think about it, it might be worth a lot of money with a quality like that
I got it by donating to Seti.org so it has a cool and nerdy logo on it too.
@Setanta,
Lies create a false reality.
If a false reality keeps you safe, by all means, invest in one.
I prefer truth, and the consequences thereof.
