Blatant Lies/Web Original

No, no, these are examples of Blatant Lies in Web Unoriginal works

The Homestar Runner Wiki has an entire page about this.
That Guy With The Glasses' MikeJ is constantly spewing "facts" about Briton. For instance, did you know that all the homosexual people were banished to Norway in the 1800s? Or that goats are the dominant species? Eightyseven foot ring tailed lemurs run amok, and they have the Running of the Praying Mantis which happens every week.
- Of course, everyone knows the Eightyseven foot ring tailed lemurs are really a whole bunch of regular lemurs group together.
From Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog:

Horrible: "We're meeting now for the first time!"
Hammer: You look...horribly familiar.
Horrible: Just have that kind of face! Must be going now...!

- In the final song:

Horrible: And I am fine...

Awkward has Alex, who will say pretty much anything if it gets him a little closer to target-of-his-affections Lester.

Alex: (while following a half-naked Lester around the kitchen with a video camera) Makin' a video. For school. Yeah, it's a documentary about, um... kitchen life.

Stories on Pseudopod are usually introduced with "I have a story for you, and I promise you, it's true."
The blogger Chromagic does this all the time.
- For example, "And, you know, [Sandslash has] huge long talons. Also like me."
Ranger in Comic Fury Werewolf during Game 11 had an exchange seen as either hilarious or quite frustrating in Game 11, where he claimed, "I'm not a wolf!" After he was dead. And confirmed by the host.
Count how many times Zoë says she will cut something out of episodes of The Webcomics Company podcast.
Half of what's written in My Opinions On Every Pokémon Ever.
Even on TV Tropes, on most pages warning of unmarked spoilers, the majority of the spoilers are marked anyway.
- This trope is most definitely not a popular pothole target for lies.
This Lolcat.
- Also several variations involving a cat sitting in the middle of a gigantic mess with a caption declaring something along the lines of "What? I had nothing to do with it!" Cat (and dog) owners know full well how much this is Truth in Television.
4chan totally did not do anything with this trope: [1]
In the first season of Brazilian webseries "Só Levando", posted at [2]^{[dead link]}, a man named Bezerra was making pirate CDs until the police caught him. He claimed it was for personal use.

Officer: CDs da Vainessa Camargo?/Vainessa Camargo CDs?
Bezerra: Eu gosto./I like.
Officer: 120 cópias?/120 copies?
Bezerra: Gosto muito./I like it so much.

Common in Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series - it is the trope namer for Most Definitely Not a Villain, after all - but Marik is probably the worst offender here. His name is Malik Blishtar, he's not doing anything suspicious, and he is 100% straight! Also, that whole thing about being gay in Marik Plays Bloodlines episode 6? Ghosts.
The characters in Dead Ends have the option of doing this a few times. It gets them killed.
Tobuscus' Lazy Vlogs contain a rather large amount of pointless rambling—that is, of course, the point. However, when Toby gets to rambling, he often launches into some... rather obvious untruths. In this vlog he claims to have a lying tell, and then claims to be lying about said tell.
Oh, I'm shooting a documentary on hotels. *later* My house is being renovated, so I'm staying here. *later* Well, my job got relocated, so I'm looking for a place to stay. Of course, he was losing his memory...
