>>50396517I get them to drop the act by being condescending and lying myself. "Enough with the crocodile tears already, it's a waste of time". And if they still keep up with the act I exclaim "I know you're full of shit because you have a tell". Their curiosity about what their alleged tell is overpowers their desire to continue acting out and they can't help but ask. Then the coup de grace "I'll tell you if you stop crying". Waterworks stop.
