Yeah, but when he lies about one thing - I mean a totally made-up fairy tale about banging a gubernatorial daughter who evidently doesn't even exist - it calls into question the veracity of everything else he says, too. The fact that he was raised by a pack of lawyers and doesn't know what an assistant DA is doesn't make him look too good, either. I'm not saying outright that he's lying, but his credibility is pretty suspect in my opinion.
But like I said earlier, my main point is that iit really doesn't even need to matter whether he's telling the truth. As far as I'm concerned, giving him any advice is just not worth the keystrokes because his thought process seems to be so incredibly flawed he can't possibly benefit from anything we tell him. Even if he understands what we say (which he hasn't really shown any evidence of) and follows the specific advice (which he doesn't seem to do), he'll just do something else incredibly stupid the next day and wind up doing 30 consecutive life terms on Devil's Island or something because we neglected to warn him about that one thing. It's like spending 6 hours painstakingly teaching someone how to avoid getting run over by garbage trucks while crossing the street, only to have him walk out the door and get pancaked by a school bus because we didn't think to warn him that he needs to watch out for school buses, too. This poor guy sounds like one of those people who is just born to get fucked no matter what. You can teach someone a lot of things, but you can't teach them to think straight. I genuinely feel sorry for the poor kid, but I really don't think we can help him.
