    The real problem is that the movie started as a satirical show with a lot of dark humor (the cop scene where he casually admits his racism and the amount of his bribe, the name of the retirement home...etc) but it quickly devolved into a romantic comedy with the ugly guy get the pretty but superficial girl and save him from a pretty and superficial man. There is even the trope of "Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace" at the wedding. Such wasted potential.

    Six minutes in, he didn't actually lie that first time at the bank. Taking your word as truth, she asked him how much he wanted to withdraw. He wanted 800. There was no reason to *want* the amount of money he had. He wanted 800, because he needed 800. It wasn't actually a lie. Haven't seen the movie, but this is interesting.

      Seems plausible to me?
      I get that genetics does not directly make a kid fat, but genetics can make a child put on weight more easily, and the habits and behaviors that cause a kid to be fat CAN be influenced by genetics ... in addition to that, people in the same family tend to have similar eating patterns, sedentary behaviors, and levels of physical activity. A child's chances of being overweight increase if a parent is overweight or obese.... so, the genes of the fat parent influences the child to be fat from within (nature) and externally (nurture)

    There's a lot of skipped-over premises. For example: apparently no one can be wrong. No one can forget a withdrawal they made (or anything else). No one can go insane. Everyone assumes that whomever they are talking to is not only completely honest, and completely clear (no ambiguity in understanding), but completely correct in their knowledge, even if that's in conflict with other knowledge.
    Look at where he tells contrary lies. No one says "oh? I misunderstood what you meant before". No one asked for explanations / expansions to make the nonsensical make sense ("he's telling the truth, but what I hear doesn't match what I know so either I'm hearing or he's explaining unclearly").
    It's a cool premise but I really don't like the execution of this inverse version of Liar-Liar.

    Theres not being able to lie, and not going into details and saying everything on your mind. U can ask how was my day, and i can say fine and not give reasons. Like in the beginning on there first date, she could have said she wasnt ready yet and not that she was trying to have some happy time with herself before the date. You dont have to be 100% honest and forward with whats on your mind to be lying. Like be vauge and only give few reasons.

      You make good points, but I am not sure I fully agree. There is the concept of lying by omission. You don't outright say untrue statements, but you create a different narrative by only speaking some true things, while leaving out key details.
      Communication is more layered than "I speak, you understand". There's things like context, subtext, delivery etc.
      A bit simplified, I say something, I mean another thing, you hear something and you interpret another thing.
      I think the movie was taking a pretty radical approach and banned lying in all forms accross all layers of communication.

      @@corby789 go back to my first example. U can ask how my day was and I can say fine. I don't have to give u reasons. Not lying. Or really withholding info. More like finishing a conversation or giving a general response. I could also say my day was bad. It's not lying to not say everything on your mind. It's also just doing polite conversation. In thst movie universe, there isn't really a distinction between 100% forthcoming with what's on your mind and 100% honest.
      Again in the beginning, when he went to pick her up on their date, she could have said she wasn't really ready yet and left it at that. She didn't really have to give reasons unless he asked. There isn't really any discretion or many manners in the movie. When she was on the phone with her mom, she could have said she was on the date and she will call back, not talk about it in front of him amd how badly its going. Say mean stuff about him like he wasn't even there. Or say not really, so he doesn't know its about how the date is going.
      There is lying by omission, but that's mostly by the situation. Also if there is any reason to give you certain info.

    Here's the confusing thing in this world- we know for a fact that alcohol can affect a person's judgement of truth, even in this world, as the woman he goes out with at the start specifies that he is not attractive to her, but by the end of the date believes that she is too intoxicated to make a proper judgement. If she actually had no intent to ever see him again, she would just say so if the alcohol had no effect. As a result, we know lying can be the result of a drunk person. So, what if in the scene where a cop pulled his friend over for drunk driving, he wasn't in the car? Could the friend drunkedly say "I'm not drunk officer", and get away with it? After all, if everyone will assume anything that anyone else says is truth, it doesn't matter if that person is intoxicated or not.
