As this has clearly taken on a life of it's own (this being post #355 in this thread alone), I am proposing a new adjective in honor of this:
Martinizing (reminiscent of the dry cleaners) - to falsify one's qualifications or resume in a manner which is completely beyond belief.

Example [A high-school drop out applying for work]: I applied for that job at Burger King and wanted them to notice my application, so I Martinized it and told them I had a PhD. in astrophysics, worked part time as a neurosurgeon, and volunteered at a rescue shelter on weekends.
