Liar?
I am seeing more and more references to "Clothier" to "Coventry clothier" in the meaning of a a liar. What is the origin of this association? Do we have an article on it? -- Petri Krohn (talk) 16:04, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Answering my own question: Clothier is a reference to whole cloth, the fictitious material from which complete fabrications, lies with no basis in truth, are made.
 * Coventry seem to be a reference to a gentleman from the town, a tailor by profession and internationally renown as a master of spin and fabrication. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 16:00, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
