Flynn-spin

Enriching a story or anecdote by embellishing minutely relevant facts, not pertaining to the overall subject of the story, for entertainment purposes.
Heather, was late for work again. When her boss asked what happened, rather than tell him she was late because she stopped for a turtle, she put a Flynn-Spin on it and told him she “saved” a turtle; by fighting off seagulls and oncoming traffic.

Excusing her tardiness.
