Filter Loon

folk who rely on enhancement apps to make themselves look pretty

Charles was scrolling Facebook the other day and stumbled on Bob's new profile picture, which looked absolutely nothing like him. "What the F is that and who am I looking at?" Charles exclaimed. "Bobby is totally unrecognizable and a little bit nuts. IRL he looks like a high-school janitor but on Facebook he's a supermodel! Bob is definitely a Filter Loon." Charles logged off and went for a walk.

familiarity filter

The "familiarity filter" refers to the phenomenon where children are more inclined to listen to strangers rather than their own parents, often due to filtering out familiar things that have always been there.

It's interesting how the familiarity filter works; my child pays more attention to advice from a teacher than from me, just because it feels new and different.
