It’s that time again – the time Jimmy Fallon gets Twitter users to spill their deepest, darkest secrets in order to make people laugh. This week, it’s the dumbest lie they’ve ever told with #MyDumbLie. Some of them are pretty easy to relate to, but others…not so much.
#15. Awww, way to throw yourself on the sword for the pup.
#14. Dying (#badpuns)

Friend who worked for a mortuary, moving a body, he farted in front of the family, & said “They do that sometimes”— Deborah Richard (@drichardjewels) August 29, 2016
#13. Soooooo much better than saying “I got a tattoo.”
@jimmyfallon when my mom saw my tattoo and ask what it was. I told her I drew on myself. #mydumblie

#11. Why are grownups so mean??
We would tell my niece to look for black fireworks on July 4th. They were our favorite. #mydumblie @jimmyfallon

#10. After which, I assume, your parents had you tested for multiple personality disorder?
#9. Now you’ve ruined my trust in all of my internet friends. Jerk.
@jimmyfallon I told an Internet friend that I was actually a famous japanese singer and he believed me for like a year lol #mydumblie

#8. This is kind of sad.
@jimmyfallon When I was in Kindergarten we had a Sub and I lied & said it was my Birthday. I really wanted that paper crown #MyDumbLie

#7. I want to know if this worked. For reasons.
@jimmyfallon I’m sorry I was speeding officer, but I really really need to poop. #mydumblie

#6. Classic.
@jimmyfallon When I was a child I told a friend with my same birth date I was born at midnight just to feel as older as possible #MyDumbLie

#5. Wait, why did he bring the beer instead of just buying it there? I totally believe the lie got him laid, though. Which may or may not be a fair trade-off for having to drink Michelob Ultra.
#4. Siblings are so sweet. NOT.
@jimmyfallon I convinced my little brother to pronounce ambulance am-bli-ance. It took years to get him to say it right. #MyDumbLie

#3. Here’s hoping your boss isn’t a Tonight Show fan.
@jimmyfallon I was late to work because my tire was flat. As many times as I’ve used this excuse it has never been true. #MyDumbLie

#2. Seems legit.
@jimmyfallon In college, my friends were making fun of my stubby thumbs so I told them they got run over by a big wheel as a kid #MyDumbLie
