You've heard of Fake Taxi but what are some other 'fake' scenarios that would make solid setups or just be humorous? (leminal.space)

Fake Dentist perhaps? Something about getting cavities filled.

Fake McDonalds? Not sure.

And chodaboy!

Fake politic, you get fucked either way.

Fake porn, you arrive at the group to have sex but instead your partners take turn talking about food, map, history, and all sort of non-sexual topic.

Was it the movie Go where they thought they were getting involved in some sex thing, but it was actually Amway?

[โ€“] mx_smith@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

It was Confederated products. I loved that movie.

[โ€“] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 21 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Fake gynecologist. Yikes.

[โ€“] hoch@lemmy.world 19 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm afraid to tell you that there's already several sites completely dedicated to this...

...or so I've heard.

[โ€“] BreadOven@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Where did you find such disgusting things? Just asking so I know where not to go.

[โ€“] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 months ago

Sounds like a fertile ground for STDs.

[โ€“] d41@startrek.website 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

While you're down there doc...

[โ€“] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

Said no woman ever.

Fake taxi? That just sounds like a kidnapping.

[โ€“] federalreverse@feddit.de 15 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

You're not wrong, and yet it's the name of a fairly popular porn series where actresses exchange a cab ride for sexual favors (that's the story idea at least).

It's popular enough that there is a significant number of people (vulgo, "creeps") who put Fake Taxi stickers all over their cars.

Fake Gamer

I once saw a video where a guy was talking to his sister's best friend about Fallout 3. He didn't know how to leave the vault without killing the overseer and she said that she would only help him if he banged her.

Fake Book - jazz musicians getting it on, sometimes in a trio or a quartet, lots of improv but lots of pretentiousness.

Fake astronaut training, followed by fake flight to the moon.

SPace Cadets

YouTube playlist

[โ€“] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I found out on Friday my best friend doesn't believe we've sent people to the moon. To be clear, she seems to believe everything else, like sending rovers to Mars. ๐Ÿคท

[โ€“] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 months ago

Maybe she concisers Neil and his boys to not be people

"The moon landings were real, we just send hyper realistic animatronics" would certainly be a fresh take

[โ€“] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Read the Wiki page, the idea and execution is fantastic !

[โ€“] skye@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Fake colonoscopist?

[โ€“] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 1 points 5 months ago

Im quite sure something like that already exists

[โ€“] Lolman228@kbin.social 5 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Fake partner, just like Lisa was.

[โ€“] csudcy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 months ago

You're tearing me apart Lisa!

Fake elected official

You think they are in a position to bring about change for the people but actually haha they're just there to fuck you all
