Playfood for lunch


a vivid -n-logy/comparison i coined, describing being duped or hoodwinked; a tantalizing offer or prospect that turns out to be phony or empty.

it is comparing being duped to the imaginary but descriptive scenario of invited to someone’s house for lunch and seeing an -ssortment of delicious looking food on the table, but then, upon being served, discover that it’s only very realistic-looking playfood. it looks delicious, but it’s a toy, a prop, only fake, nothing you can really eat. similarly, if someone makes you a tempting offer that turns out to be phony, it too looks great, but it’s nothing you can really act on, it’s only fake.
