Real Life Situations:

For someone to give details or examples of these situations, are actually not going to "teach" anything.

Look at it this way.

Every real life story, is going to be told in a fashion best interpreted the way the raconteur had viewed or experienced it. They will leave out, replace, or some will even make up information in the story. If the story is all true, to the detail, then chances are, the exact situation unfolding for the next guy, will not end up with the exact result.

Next, most raconteurs will want to make their story, especially if it involved them, seem more exciting. Some will go as far as to show how they are the "hero", or the "wiseman". A common human trait is to story tell. This is not to state that story telling is the same as bearing mendacity.

So with this, I have to agree with doubleouch.
