To deliberately attempt to deceive a
friend with a tall
tale, for the purposes of humour. The majority of spuddles are low-level, with the key ingredient of a spuddle being believability, but some can be outrageous, as detailed in the
example below.
Chris: "Oh Russ, I forgot to tell you. You see my mate Ben, over there? He's Chuck
Norris's nephew!"
Russ: "Really?!"
In this example, Russ has been Spuddled. He now believes that a friend of a
friend is related to the actor and
Karate expert, Chuck Norris.
