I have a few questions.. I have more questions about it but these will do.. Why do others consider those that are truthful to be assholes (at times)? Would you rather know the truth even if it hurts you or would you like to be lied to just to be happy? Do people not like to know the truth? Do they just wanna live in a fantasy that the television shows them? When should you or should you ever bend the truth? I admit that at times I lie too but when I do speak the truth, I get some sort of heat or something.. I was just wondering about this topic so I asked a few questions.
Because they're being "truthful" about others, not about themselves. Particularly when done publicly, that's a hell of a lot more self-indulgent, assaultive and counterproductive than when it's done privately and with a certain deference to the other person's reasoning or point of view. Furthermore, what you're describing is probably more accurately an unfiltered opinion than an admission of fact.
could you be any more vague in what you're trying say? how about these simple tips: 1. don't "lie at times." really simple stuff. karma works in more ways than just physically. 2. most people who say "you know what, i'm gonna lie to ya." those are the people who like the most, most often through their freaking teeth. 3. stop over analyzing truth and lies, and stop putting so much of your faith in people. what you have going on here, isn't a normal sentiment people deal with or think about.

Telling someone "those fries will move you from Obese Class I to Obese Class II" understandably generate heat.
I'm not upset about anything. I was just wondering why people get mad at others for being honest about certain things when they ask for it. Or like why are people living in a fantasy (a lie)? I was just thinking stuff due to boredom. Nothing serious.
Okay. If a girl asks you if you think she looks fat in this ___________? Answer is always NO! No matter what you actually think. Is it better to be truthful and hurt someone or lie and make someone happy?
Exactly! Personally, in this situation, it would depend on the girl. I'd try to be helpful by telling them that she needs to lose weight but not in a rude manner. Now, I'd think that I would possibly date a avg looking girl.. Not fat and not extreamely skinny. And if I liked her, I'd tell her she's not fat if she wasn't and she is perfect the way she is if she is gaining.. I don't know. How would you handle it? Just say no? How is that helping the person? Why ask if you don't wanna hear the truth?
the answer is not always "no," especially when she does look fat in it. you don't need be dickish about it but she'd be better off in the long run hearing you tell her that it doesn't fit correctly. and i guarantee she'll respect your opinion a lot more than those who just flat out say no/
