No actual lips are injured or otherwise harmed when synthetic whistling is employed.
The Take Control margarine advertisement from the turn of the century had this horrid synthetic whistling in it. Made me want to throw a large tub of frozen Gold & Soft margarine right through my TV set's boob tube and then suck up all of the glass with a bagged upright vaccume cleaner so that the cat doesn't cut her paws on it! :-(

Synthetic Friday

Originally coined on the Chicago Board Options Exchange, a Synthetic Friday occurs on a Thursday preceding a Friday in which the market is closed. Since there is no work on Friday, Thursday essentially becomes like a Friday. The word synthetic is used and derived from an option strategy called a Synthetic Long Stock, in which a trader buys a call and shorts a put, each with the same strike price (there are different variations of this strategy/trade.)
Market Maker A: "The market is closed tomorrow since it is Good Friday."

Market Maker A: "Let's get bombed."
