DO YOU LIKE THIS QUOTE? - Alex - 03-02-2014 11:41 AM
Do you like this quote, some girl I'm friends with on Facebook made it up (I think). I was gonna use it because a person in my life was being very fake towards me and I'm aiming it at them.
"If someone is phony, they are transparent. Therefore you can see right through them. In turn, you simply ignore them and it's as if they are not even there at all"

Very true and creative quote. I like it.

I don't really like it. It is repetitive and doesn't form a logical conclusion. If someone is phony they are fake, not transparent. I would make up a saying playing off of that, like "I only deal in authentic people, not fakes."
OR
"Fakes are cheap"
OR
"Phony people are a dime a dozen"

You are mixing up the meaning of transparency. Transparency has to do with honesty and not deceit. I think "invisible" is the word because phony people don't think their real selves exist in real life.
