Spent $60 on a video editing course just to understand the fake tears better

I got tired of guessing if a star's apology was real, so I bought a basic editing class online. It showed me how to spot cuts that hide pauses for fake emotion and how background music gets added to make you feel sorry. Now I watch those videos on mute first to see the raw face before the sad piano kicks in. Anyone else try to learn a skill just to get better at calling out the nonsense?

Ever notice how we're all becoming detectives just to figure out basic honesty now?

Is it just me or does every text now need a decoder ring? I mean, you have to read between the lines just to see if someone's actually free for coffee. Feels like a part-time job nobody asked for.

Becoming detectives" is right, I learned body language for the same thing.
