#TrendingTuesday
Today’s top trending topic is #Famouslies. I can’t always do posts on the top trending topics, but today I can… AND I can use people’s actual tweets, because these are some lies I have told and been told. These are meant to be FUNNY, so please take them that way. Are you ready? Let’s go!
“I am on my way…” No, you are loading dishes in the dishwasher and finishing your show.Just tell me the truth so I can go do something else too. #famouslies
“It’s not you– it’s me.” Translation: It’s you, but I don’t have the emotional energy to have this conversation with you, so I’ll just take the blame and get it over with. #famouslies
“I’m just not ready for a commitment right now.” Translation: I’m just not that into you. #Famouslies #moveon
“I need to focus more on my relationship with God right now, and I can’t be distracted with dating.” Translation: I need a good reason to break up with you because “I’m not attracted to you anymore” is just too unchristlike. #famouslies
“We can still be friends.” Translation: I can’t stand disappointing you, so will you accept the first runner up prize? #famouslies
“I didn’t see your text.” Ummm… you JUST tweeted. #famouslies
“Of course I didn’t forget it was your birthday. I have something really special planned.” Translation: I totally forgot it was your birthday, I have nothing planned, and now I am freaking out! #famouslies.
What about you — any #famouslies you have told and/or been told? (Keep it clean, keep it nice, keep it light!)

I have been told the commitment lie, when in actuality the guy had personal issues that had been formed from his past relationship. Plus, he did not see me as someone he wanted to date, but the bad part was he constantly acted as if we were dating. This ended up making me confused and hurt.
Alexis I have totally beenthere before. I always think if a guy isn’t willing to say you are dating, then no matter what he acts like, he doesn’t consider you his girlfriend.
“Just 5 more minutes” (in regards to playing games on the PS3)….big ‘ole lie! Just as women can’t seem to get off Pinterest in less than an hour, if a man says he’ll be off the PlayStation in 5 minutes, go ahead and plan a solitary dinner, go to a movie, crochet a blanket, and re-write the Declaration of Independence in Pig Latin. If you have time left over, color your hair, do the taxes, and plan your next wall installation to resemble the Sistine Chapel (on PInterest, of course!)
Deb, that is hilarious!
Ok, I SO love you PK, this post had me laughing so hard!
Question: Does these jeans make my butt look big ? #Famouslie: “Long pause….uhhh….no?”
Ok, I am well aware of the fact that the RIGHT answer to this question may or may not actually exist. Honestly. we probably get what we ask for assailing our men with this apparently impossible task but…C’MON we’re not talking rocket science here! A simple yes or no will do, no need for hemming, hawing and sweating bullets! Apparently men think we can’t handle the truth and will lie through their teeth trying to find some safe harbor in the raging seas of our precarious self-confidence issues so do yourselves a favor girls, just go ask one of your girls instead.
Haaha- the laugh is on me and God’s unbelievable mercy, thank you Lord.
How many do I find one more thing to do before leaving…… of course the one more
leads to much more. For some balance, I am a parent parenting by myself and this is somewhat
a symptom.
haha! Mercy you have me cracking up! I have learned not to ask that question because my husband’s response is always the same, “Is your daddy a meat burglar? Because those are two mighty fine hams in those pants!” (from some stupid movie!) and I did learn that if I want to hear how beautiful I look on my way out the door, ask my son because he will always say, “Yes!” (and so does my hubby… or “No Lunging Allowed” for him.. )
But my favorite lie~ “Are your chores/homework done?” The answer is always, “of course!” and you then hear everyone thrashing about in the background trying to get everything tossed in the closest closet before I get home… yeah~ didn’t see that one coming! ha!
PK – this is HILAROUS!
“That’s amazing!” translation: I really don’t know how to respond to that statement/comment/story you just told me and I’m trying not to let my jaw hit the floor, so “That’s amazing” sounds pretty neutral
