Fib me a lil

(n.) a brief command, often to a friend, to make only encouraging comments to them. Even if it means they have to "fib a little bit."

Can be conveyed silently with a sharp stare. It is the implied refrain of dictators and friends who just got haircuts.

Emperor Napoleon: Should we invade Russia? ~Fib me a lil.~
Napoleon's Chief Invasion Officer: Yes. ~During the winter.~
