Photo Hunters #13 - Fake

Today’s word/theme for Photo Hunters is fake.
The first thing that came to my mind was Anna Nicole's bust line, but of course, these are photos we take ourselves, so I had to come up with something else. :o)


Fake fingernails are of course an obvious one, and our Everything For A Dollar Store has lots of choices for fake fingernails... here are a few of them.


Something else I found at EFADS was fake hair, you put these around your ponytail of real hair.

Fake Coke. Many people drink it because it has no sugar, so no calories. What it does have is Aspertame, a very dangerous and damaging chemical. Also, it has been proven that these "diet" drinks actually cause you to gain weight.


Ahhhhh, the REAL thing! It's also really bad for you, and it's my one vice. However, I have cut waaaayyyy back on it which is really a good thing, so when I do have a really COLD Coke, I totally enjoy every drop of it. (The first few gulps are almost as good as an orgasm... note I said almost).

Great photos, thanks for sharing. Don't think I want to try that other coke,....... certainly don't want to gain weight off of it. Have a great day.

Sigh. The only coke I can drink is the nasty imitation stuff--can't have sugar. :) Don't drink it often though. The fake hair and nails--very silly stuff. :)

I find even the Diet Coke to be too sweet for me. So I drink Diet Pepsi.

My biggest problem is not drinking enough water.

I stopped drinking diet coke because of the fact that it causes one to gain more weight rather than lose or retain whatever you have right now. I still prefer the real thing and water of course.

Mine's up here:

Those are all great fakes! Very colourful fake nails! My mom likes the diet Coke with Splenda, which is made from sugar, so it's a lot safer than aspartame (plus it was developed at her Alma Matter, the University of Guelph!) She doesn't drink coffee, so it's how she get sher caffeine.

Great fakes! I totally agree with you on the fake coke thing. If it doesn't have calories & you can't use suger in it, you KNOW you're getting some nasty CHEMICALS in there... nothing else it could be!
