NOT SO TRUE

Isn't wonderful the things that are peddled as being true. And depending on who says it will depend on if we think it is actually true.

Which is the odd aspect about things like this is for example with politicians and salesmen. We know they both lie, but still think they ought to tell the truth.

Now how you manage to tell the truth as either calling and get someone to believe you are actually being honest, I'm not sure. Still struggling with that so often myself.

So far I haven't found the option available either. I am working on it though. Just hard to find the right approach that works.

Plus people are weird. After all they have no problem believing two things that contradict each other.

Which means if they happen to think one idea is bad and the other good, but neither works with the other, it is still okay in their minds. As long as you don't expect it to make sense you are in great shape.

When it comes to the truth that can be really tricky. Because if the truth doesn't happen to be what somebody what to believe they might think you were lying anyway.

And if for some reason they think a lie is the truth it can even be worse. For then they will only thing what you say if it agrees with what they want to believe.

What really amazes me is how often people think the news is accurate. Oh some say they don't believe it, but they keep watching just the same.

Some will claim to believe the news is crap. But they spend so much time repeating the stories told you know it isn't reality.

Course this is nothing to the mental stupidity we get over movies. I mean they are normally pure fiction, but that doesn't stop us from believing they are true.

So again when it comes to something like what we wish were true, like with a movie, oh man are we prepared to believe crap. And the more it is crap, but what we want to believe even better.

Because life is so much more fun if it is reality as we love to see it. Which is perhaps my main point.

We love fiction. We want it as truth. Real truth, well it is nice, but if it is too scary, forget it.

I think that pretty much covers that joy.
