: : : It is said that there are a series of phrases in english that are normally lies. This series includes:

: : : 1) the check is in the mail
: : : 2) I'll respect you in the morning

: : : Does anyone have more phrases that should be taken with a grain of salt and a lie detector?

: : We'll try and get you a raise after you've been here a while.

"Trust me, I'm a doctor."
"Read my lips:'no new taxes'"
"This won't hurt a bit."
