#DeathTo the #FlimFlammers

We have all been through it. You know the eerie feeling of meeting someone or seeing someone you have only seen in pictures on Facebook, MySpace or Twitter. You never quite know what to expect, whether they are crazy, odd, or just the way you thought they would be personality wise; however, the one thing you DO KNOW is that they are cute, bad, fine, smokin, "like whoa" a la Black Rob and Mya, etc. So you put aside your inhibitions and you say "Sure why not, I would love to kick it with you sometime, how bout Friday at 6:30?" Then that day comes that you have been waiting for anxiously and you go to that meeting place and you wait for he or she to show up, hit it off, and you two become the happiest couple or friends this side of the Mississip.

Then it happens. You see that person coming closer to the spot wearing the outfit they so accurately described to a "T" and you get up and prepare for the rest of your life. Fellas you know, she's walking up, hair blowing in the wind, curves like a coke bottle, complexion looking like Nekfertiti herself. Ladies you too, the man is walking to you tall, dressed very nicely, hair cut, and brolic... both descriptions are from 100 meters.

Yes you guessed it, you have fallen victim to the #FlimFlammer.

Def. Flim Flammer - a male or female that has deceived, duped, bamboozled, and even hoodwinked other homo sapiens into thinking/believing that they were in fact 100 times more attractive than they actually were i.e. shown themselves to have no flaws physically when in fact they are extremely flawed

Please do not get me wrong, I AM NOT A SHALLOW PERSON, I just like for people to be honest with me as I am honest with them, and the art of the Flim Flammer is not for the novice by any means. These people have perfected the craft for years and will stop at nothing to fool YOU! Personally I don't mind unattractive people because they always make it up somewhere else, this is FACT, except for the Flim Flammers. They do not make it up because they are too busy perfecting their Flim Flamming craft to work on cooking, knitting, athletic abilities, etc.

Little did you know, my friends, there are steps to detect these people and not be a victim of their deceiving ways. Here are some things to look out for:

1. If they only have profile pics of other people and/or pics with them and a group of people

2. Photo albums entitled "My Family" or "Friends" and not a tagged pic or a pic of themselves in sight

3. They say ALL the right things about themselves and say that there is absolutely nothing wrong with them physically (see also Insane person)

4. If they often compare themselves to celebrities and say that they have been mistaken for attractive ones all the time

For Example, this scene from "Friday" shows the art of the Flim Flammer precisely:

SEXY VOICE: I'm about 5'2". Light skin. Long hair. I'm thick. People say I look like Janet Jackson.

Smokey: For real? No shit? Janet Jackson? Oh, boy.

Beware my friends, BEWARE. they are amongst you as we speak. Please take heed to my advice, guidance and warnings if you don't want to fall victim to these exploits.

GOOD DAY
