That’s amusing, I always enhance my anecdotes, at least by dropping the irrelevant parts.
Now that will sound funny but I think posting on 4chan helped me quite a lot with learning this. In real life (or online where you have long term identity you care about) it’s difficult to train enhancing the truth, because failure makes you a known liar, and has negative consequences. On 4chan on the other hand—just go for it—nobody really cares.
