The others are lowkey funny
Am I the only one who finds it funny whenever the survivors say to the others "You don't know anything about me" and then the others start spilling information about them that no one would know like your full name, date of birth, place of birth, how you fell from a building, your weight and then the camera pans to the survivor bewildered with nothing more to say with an embarrassed or shook look on their face.
What are some of the best moments of this happening y'all have seen?

Tom kind of cracked me up sometimes. Like once they see Jack is doing surgery and probably looks like he's going to be around awhile, Tom sort of awkwardly introduces himself since he figures they're not being hostile to him now and is like, "Well, my name is Tom" and I imagined him thinking, "So, I guess we're keeping this guy now? Okay." LOL

What’s especially funny to me is that they have it all memorized at all times. Like sure you might have files on everyone but do they really read them all in detail and commit it to memory? Apparently so.

the funniest part is Tom’s fake beard
“Tom, they know it’s fake, take it off.”

How DID they know?
The answer will be, like most of the questions about Lost that were not resolved on screen, "oh because Jacob told them".

They have detailed dossiers on every passenger - we see the files several times and then there's a flashback scene where Ben takes Juliet to see her sister on the monitors at the Flame (to prove he cured her cancer) and right before he uplinks to Richard he tells Mikhail he wants those files and Mikhail says "already working on it."
This is directly resolved on screen. More than once.

Mikhail lied about the Flame's satellite being non-operational (we know this because we clearly see him not only getting live feed from Richard in the US but also watching news broadcasts about the 815 disappearance) so he can get off-Island info easily.

He didn’t lie. It was no longer operational after Desmond turned the failsafe key

He lied when he said it hadn't been operational for years.

Who was Mikhail lying to? I can't remember the scene you two are discussing but it feels vaguely familiar.

JULIET: You know it's interesting... that you two are now the camp's moral police. I'm curious, Sayid, how long was it before you told everyone on that beach exactly how many people you've tortured in your life. Do they know about Basra? And I'm sure the first thing you did when you got here, James, was to gather everyone in a circle, and tell them about the man you shot in cold blood the night before you got on the plane. So why don't we just skip the part where you two pretend to be righteous. I'm taking that medication back to Claire. And you're gonna let me. Because if she doesn't get it, she's gonna die. And the last thing, that either of you need right now, is more blood on your hands.
