Well in some ways there's double meanings.

Fact is almost universally people lie to make themselves sound better. When someone says "I like to backstab people who put their trust in me, and I love to take loans and never pay them back, by the way can I borrow $200". You probably don't need to loan the person the money to find out if he was really just lying.
