I’m not asking youngsters not to lie, though. Times are changed. Honesty has for millenniums been considered a good policy but I’m not sure it remains so today.
Today, it seems people who lie and lie and lie even more will go far in society, not the other way around. Again, it’s just an impression but I won’t tell kids not to lie lest I hinder their career and climbing up the social ladder.
Lying is not my cup of tea but still I’d be lying if I don’t admit that people who lie a lot are getting away with it much more than before. In fact, they all seem to be doing better than everyone else.
Just ask any successful people around you and they’ll tell you this is true. I’m sure they’ll all agree with me. If they don’t, just sit back and watch – to see their proverbial noses grow longer and longer.
Anyways, Pinocchio stands for lying. Hence, if people call someone a Pinocchio, they believe this person is very prone to telling a lie. If they say somebody does a Pinocchio, or that their nose does a Pinocchio, they mean the same thing.
Alright, here are media examples:
1. Charles Ross’s touring stage show, “The One-Man Star Wars Trilogy,” is as audacious as the title suggests.
…
Inspiration for the show began a long time ago, in a living room far, far away. Ross, a native of Victoria, British Columbia, frittered away his childhood by watching a videotape of “Star Wars” more than 400 times.
