Day 357: Bra Lies

Passing by suburban stalwart Ann Summers, I notice this arresting poster in the window that exhorts you to TELL LIES (BOOST YOUR BUST). 

Yes.  Bra lies.  But we all know what happens to people who lie.  They get found out.  In this case, the minute the bra hits the floor and the LYING BUST is revealed in its flaccid shame.  Then the recriminations:- 

'I can't believe this, Beverley!  You've LIED to me with your TITS.  What next?  Have you boosted your hips? 

'Don't overreact, David.  You know that hips don't lie.  Shakira says so.'

'If tits can lie, so can Shakira.  And so can hips.  The trust is gone.  Goodbye, Beverley.'

(This could happen.  Seriously.)

Interesting that recent studies show a correlation between lies and low self-esteem.  The more lies you tell, the shittier you feel about yourself. 

You could do what the poster says.  TELL LIES (BOOST YOUR BUST).  Or instead you could just TELL THE TRUTH (BOOST YOUR SELF-ESTEEM).
