When visiting Las Vegas, you need to understand that you are entering a land of illusion, and that the illusion is not limited to the sights and sounds. There’s a unique language that permeates daily life on The Strip, and knowing what you’re really being told can save you lots of grief. To help you with this a bit, I thought I might point out some of the more common “fibs”, and give you their real meaning….
When beautiful girls say… “Hi!, there!”
They really mean… “I’m a hooker…”
When gamblers say… “I broke even…”
They really mean… “The $2000.00 I lost this morning doesn’t count…”
When TV weathermen say… “It’s going to be warm out there…”
They really mean… “The plastic in your car’s interior is gonna melt…”
When visiting Celebs say… “This is my favorite club/restaurant/casino…”
They really mean… “They paid me $50,000 to say that…”
When the doorman at a trendy club says… “It’ll be about 20 minutes…”
They really mean…”It would be about 20 minutes if you were a beautiful young girl with her tits falling out of her shirt, but, for you, it’ll be 2 hours or a $100 tip…”
When the taxi dispatcher says… “A cab will be there in 10 minutes…”
They really mean… “No cab will ever pick you up away from the strip, and everyone in the room room is laughing their ass off!”
When new residents say… “I can see myself living here for a long time…”
They really mean… “I haven’t spent a summer here, yet…”
When strangers on the Strip say… “I’m not looking for casual sex…”
They really mean… “My wife/husband is asleep upstairs, but we can go to your place…”
I’m sure that, on your next visit, you’ll run across many more “misdirection fibs”, but, hopefully, you can now see them for what they are. Always remember, the Las Vegas Strip is Fantasy-Land, so don’t believe anything you hear, and only about half of what you see…
