Might be over the top, but you've just tried to pull the wool over my eyes, and I don't roll like that.

A bit over the top. Only worthy of an eye roll, a "nice try there, Skippy," and not much more. I don't see how you can throw them out for trying to fool you...they do it all the time constantly throughout the game.
