thank god that it’s nearly friday ππ» it’s definitely needed this week π
i’ve a feeling that this one might be a short but interesting one π
#tdil where the phrase “smoke and mirrors” came from ππ»
for some reason, my first thought when someone mentions the above saying is a quick rendition of smoke on the water π … as you’d expect, they have nothing to do with each other π
anyway! as you’re probably aware, the saying relates to trickery or being deceptive or sneaky π
it’s a cool saying, but where on earth did it originate?! π€ i shall tell thee π apparently, it finds its roots in the exploits of stage magicians! π§π»ββοΈ … (i’ll be honest, i didn’t see that coming when i read it π)
that said, it actually makes total sense … it’s a saying about deception and the whole point of being a stage magician is to deceive! π … also, stage magicians use actual smoke and mirrors as ways to trick people π so, you know, makes sense ππ»
erm … i don’t really have anything else to say about this π told you it’d be a short one!
on that note, i think it’s time to go to bed ππ» have a good night folks!
byeee π€π» #tdil

(right, pictures ππ» the first image is ->here<- and image two/header is ->here<- … finding picturesfor this was surprisingly hard ππ)
You actually make it appear so easy with your presentation however I find this topic to be actually one thing which I believe I’d never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely huge for me. I’m taking a look ahead in your next post, I will attempt to get the hold of it!
