Honesty and rubber dolls

I love the honest people!

And I love the honest products! I understand that the honest products are made by honest people. Makes sense?

I will tell you what I mean by giving you examples of dishonest products:

• A fake woman is one. They are made of rubber or plastic. Inflatable. A guy can pretend that he has a woman in bed when she's made of plastic. Give me a break! 
• Fake fireplace. Some are built in a wall and you plug it in. There's also a video you can buy.
• Ice cream without any milk or cream in it. I know that some so called ice cream is made with protein substances. I think I can tell the difference between a real ice cream and a fake ice cream. The fake one tastes like paper, sort of, and the fake ice cream doesn't melt like real ice cream.
• Timber! Plastic made so it looks like wood. Very practical, but I would prefer if it was an honest product. Let the plastic be plastic and don't make it look like wood. Please.
• Brick walls which really is a wallpaper. This is borderline because there is no way you can make a mistake about the wallpaper being a wallpaper and the person living there wouldn't pretend that he has a brick wall, would he? But I don't like them anyway.

There are situations where I think a fake product can make an improvement. But they are so few. A woman getting a wig because she is loosing her hair would be one. Women look so much better with hair, I think. If a man wants to wear a wig I can't say that I blame him but men are not attractive in the first place. Why waste money on a wig? An honest bald looks fine.

The honest products are just that. They are what they seem to be. You see a brick and it is a brick. You can walk up to the wall and touch the actual brick. This is very good.

You see a woman and there's a woman there, really. Relief!

I noticed something else about fake. It will not ever make you feel truly comfortable and good. Not as an honest product could. Honesty can touch your soul. 

You want the sound of a waterfall in your home because it makes you feel good? You can record the sound and play it in your sound system but it won't make you truly comfortable. You have to build a waterfall, a real one. The recorded waterfall will soon start to annoy you, you take my word for it.

Pretense. To mislead. I have a fake t-shirt in my closet. It's a t-shirt alright, a pretty good one, but it is a fake "Emporio Armani." And I never wear it. I will probably use it in the garage.

And honesty has some God-like ingredient. Like looking at an old, beautiful and powerful original painting by some old master. It can really make a difference.
