I'm inclined not to believe you.

Why am I not surprised ?  Since ancient Roman days, reports from the dark continent were ridiculed.  Descriptions of giraffes were deemed to cock and bull tall stories.

No need to flatter me.  It will make me suspicious. 

I'm no longer sure you are an honest person.

So you reckon I am a liberal pretending otherwise. 

Fine by me.
