Two False Words

[KFCarter]

While doing battle with an unopened package of luncheon meat this morning (prepping my daughter's lunch for school) I realized that the most widespread printed lie in the English language can be summed up in two false words:

Easy Open


Here's to the kilt; the original (and true) easy-open garment!


:ootd:

[Standard]

those two words seem to be the epitomy of the lie at times. Hope the rest of your day goes better.
The phrase "Low Fat, Tastes Great" must surely come-in a close second.

I'd suggest that "one size fits all" is the second most-printed lie. That's why they changed it to "one size fits most."

Here is another good one from the news media"We're quoting Reliable Sources".

How about "acrylic wool?"

Good disco.
Jumbo shrimp.
Military intelligence.
Modern classic.

my favorite is genuine faux.

When I was growing up I saw 'genuine plastic' many times and I often wondered about the rotten swines who were making imitation plastic.

my favorite is genuine faux.

a close cousin to the less pretentious "genuine imitation..." and the just plain weird, "real simulated..."

I like "original copy".

You forgot wonderful phrases like "batteries not included" and "some assembly required" two of my yuletime favorites
