“GOTCHU”

                   “GOTCHU”

You must have heard about the famous animated character “Nody”. He was cursed by a witch, that whenever he would lie, his nose would increase by one centimeter. The poor chap couldn’t lie without getting noticed and finally his nose became very long. The group of wise men sat and decide that the only way to help Nody was to surgically amputate his long nose, back to its original size, on one condition if he promises he won’t lie again ever.

Nody was in discomfort because of his long nose, therefore the habitual liar promise to never lie again.

GOTCHU TRICKS

Nody could be caught lying red handed because of his nose, what about all the perfect liars, who lie on our face and make us believe what they say and by the time we realize our blunder it becomes too late for us to rectify our mistake.

So here are the “GOTCHU TRICKS” to catch such Nody.

First three comes from famous three monkeys of Mahatma Gandhi, who preaches, “See no evil”, “Hear no evil” and “Say no evil”. So whenever a person would lie, the body will try to stop him for committing this sin and would resist by causing an odd sensation of one of these sense organ, whether eye, ears or mouth and the person’s hand would automatically touching that part. Indirectly signalling us whether is hiding something or lying on our face.

The fourth is the Nody nose gesture, difference being that nose doesn’t increase in size but swells a little. The technology tells that human nose expands when he is lying due to increase blood flow; this is called “PINOCCIO EFFECT”. This lead to tingling sensation on nose and the person is compelled to relieve by gentle strokes on the nose.

And finally the fifth is the neck scratch gesture in which index finger of the writing hand would scratch below the ear lobe indicating the doubt and uncertainty of his words to its listener.

So next time if someone uses these five hallmark gestures,

MOUTH COVER,

EYE RUB,

EAR GRAB,

NOSE TOUCH and

NECK SCRATCH,

Be ready to catch him. {please rule out any allergies he is suffering from to make him grab his sense organs, for example frequent touching of nose in people suffering from allergic rhinitis.}

MORAL

“Don’t you dare lie on my face, because I am no less than Sherlock Holmes Now?”

WISHING YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2013.
