Black Lie

Contrary to a white lie, a black lie is when you insult someone, whether it be family, friend, or partner, but the real meaning behind those words are of love.

Brother: “I hate you so much.”

Me: An obvious black lie... “I love you, too.”

the cake is a lie

The Cake is a lie: To have a Cake you need time and money. Therefore: money + time = Cake

According to smart people, time is money.

Therefore: 2time = Cake

According to other smart people, time goes on forever.

This indicating: time = infinity

Therefore: 2infinity = Cake

Because no person has achieved infinity, let alone 2infinity. The Cake is not possible.
The Cake is a lie!

guy 1-"the cake is real!"
guy 2-"the cake is a lie! i proved it!"
