7 Annoying things people usually fake about

Finding fake things and people is lot more easier today than bumping into their genuine counterparts. In fact the most common thing people fake about these days is about having an exemplary, ultimate and the best weekend, while you would have in reality just dragged yourself from room to room in your dirty pyjamas binge watching your favourite Netflix series for the twenty fifth time with a huge basket of popcorn which you engulfed all by yourself.

Faking has really become an everyday business today and it is okay only unless and until it doesn't annoy the person in front of you. Have you come across really exasperating and pesky people who annoyingly pretend certain things that it becomes so obvious.... so obvious.. that it is fake??!! 😒

Well here is a list of things that people by and large fake about.....

😏 Looks

"Make up? No not at all.. This is how I wake up. May be you should start drinking more water", says the lady who I happen to stumble upon everyday in the lift on the way to work. Someone in her mid 40s hiding those umpteen parlor bills of skin tightening, skin lightening, pedicure, manicure, keratin treatments and what not.... But all in vain.

😏 Genuinity

To that unmarried colleague of mine who is in a profound and indispensable hunt for a groom who says, "Looks don't matter for me. Personality does. I do not mind marrying a darker skinned guy or a physically challenged guy or a guy with less than 5 digit salary" (and lectures and lectures about how great she is).. Then why the hell does your recent Google search result indicate "Fair handsome and rich grooms abroad - wanted".

😏 Their salary

The uncle next door who had been recently promoted as the assistant manager of his branch "They had just raised my duties at work and there is no change in the wages part. As usual nothing stays in hand. It comes and goes for expenses you know"

The inner me, "Oh yeah ofcourse I know. I am blind and I can't see the shiny double door smart refrigerator at your home peeping out through the curtains nor that 4k ultra HD TV that is unable to rest its butt over the little stand that was previously holding a 30inch. I totally cannot spot the SUV parked at your parking lot which previously had a hatch back white car with three scratches two of which I had gifted it with during a small scuffle with your son. I am blind uncle. I don't see anything. Trust me" (Face palm).

😏 Age

Aunties faking their age with that thick thicker and thickest sheet of mask on their faces who still believe and force us to believe that they are in their early 30s whilst I am in my late 20s myself.

😏 Family

And then there is this cool toned neighbour who pretends as if she had been blessed with the best daughter in law in the whole universe, where as we witness every evening how she gets punished by her daughter in law for coming home late with vessels flying over to her with cuss words and how she manages to escape them like a ninja whenever there is an issue in their house.

😏 Knowledge

There is this one person (or if you are blessed and extremely lucky you will have a bunch of them around) who knows everything and anything. Talk about the world cup, or global warming, or the new cancer drug or what Deepika wore at the Cannes, they have answers to them all. Stories and stories and stories that indicate no sense of significance nor reliability but extreme nerve and confidence.

😏 New arrivals/happy milestones

The new mommy to be not revealing the exact due date of her pregnancy as if I would on that particular day rush to the labor ward and thrust the baby that has just popped out back in the uterus.

Hufffffff...

And to that newly appointed granny of a 12 month old toddler, when I ask,

"So aunty, Has your grandson started to walk?"

She replies, "Well no dear, not yet he is just trying to stand up"

My mind voice. "But I saw him walk with his grandpa yesterday to the shop. I know it but still had to ask as I didn't have any other fillers for the extremely awkward conversation with you. And you do this to me? Because you feel my evil eyes will strike your child? And he would probably forget about walking and begin crawling backwards on the walls instead. Oh man! Everyone knows what toddlers do at their first year of growth. He cannot do a javelin or a triple jump or a salsa, all he could do is obviously walk. And you are trying to keep that a top secret? "

Kudos to you mam!!!

Well... So that was it... Funny people and their funny ideologies!!
