Correct Answer
C. Take her by the shoulders. Look her straight in the eyes and say: "You know how great you look."

Explanation
The correct answer is to take her by the shoulders, look her straight in the eyes, and say "You know how great you look." This response shows support and reassurance, acknowledging her beauty and self-confidence. It avoids making any negative comments about her appearance and instead focuses on her positive qualities. Asking her if she wants to go for a run later also suggests a healthy and active lifestyle, which can be a positive way to encourage fitness without making her feel self-conscious about her body.

Your friend asks, "Did you eat the last slice of pizza?" What do you say?
- A.
  
  "No, the cat ate it."
- B.
  
  "I don't even like pizza."
- C.
  
  "Of course not, I would never!" (with sauce on your shirt)
- D.
  
  "It vanished into thin air."
Correct Answer
B. "I don't even like pizza."

Explanation
This response is a classic example of a funny, obvious lie, especially when everyone knows you love pizza! Denying your love for something so well-known makes the lie amusing because it’s easily seen through. It adds humor because instead of coming up with a plausible excuse, you choose an exaggerated claim. The best lies have some truth, but this one is so far-fetched, it’s hilarious—and clearly ineffective!

Explanation

By claiming to be an "internal synergy catalyst manager" and implying that others wouldn't understand, the person is using humor to avoid discussing their lack of accomplishments.
