Can you spot a liar?

Easy for me... I believe everyone is lying... until they prove me wrong..
 

A former state police detective told me they look under the adam's apple area of the throat during interrogations. If they see a quiver there, it indicates lying more often than not
 
As a hearing impaired person since the age of 3 Ive become quite an expert in speech reading,body language and facial expressions,liers are quite easy to spot.
The eyes and the body movements are the key.
 
How (sometimes) to tell: If it's a subject that one person knows a lot about, ask the other person questions about that subject. If they answer the questions correctly/immediately, their cool, if not.........LIAR!

When I was involved in rodeo, as a Team Roper, I would talk to different guys at local nightclubs about the event. It didn't take me very long to figure out the guy wasn't a roper and/or knew very little about the event. I'd ask them the brand of rope they used, the type of rope (scant), where they went to weekend Jackpot Ropings at, whether they were a "Header" or "Heeler" and perhaps the name of their partner. For those that answered correctly, the conversation went on, for those that stumbled around answering, I'd politely excuse myself from the conversation or they would say "hey listen, I gotta go".
 
I'm not good at spotting liars, maybe I just don't care that much. I mean, if I were in a business, I certainly would be on my toes. I think one problem with liars is that some of them honestly believe what they are saying, so you ask "are they lying?" or just terribly misinformed or brainwashed. I know some of us need our brains washed;) I think there is another sort of liar, and that's the one that is really good at lying by omission.

I think the best way for me to spot either a liar, or a person that is second-guessing whatever they are trying to dish out, is when they get defensive & rude. I find folks like this are not willing to admit "they might be wrong". Some folks will lie, even though they know they are full of crap, rather than admit they are wrong, oops, or might be.

I always check their pants to see if I can spot any smoke.

With the girls, it's more difficult, however but still VERY interesting.

LOL, well that's one way I can add to my list, LOL!! Lot's of burnt panties around, wow, just think how busy the fire-department would be during campaigning, LOL!
 
A lot of so-called techniques of establishing that someone is a liar are really based on observing and recording nervous reactions, which may or may not indicate lying.
