Faker Defined
One who engages in feigning, simulation, or other deceptive activity.

Ryan Phillippe is the latest one jumping on the "suicide train," divorce_from_Reese_Witherspoon">revealing that he wanted to kill himself after his separation from Reese Witherspoon last year.

“After the divorce, I was a physical wreck. I wanted to die,” he told the Autumn-Winter 2007-2008 of U.K. magazine Man About Town. “I was ready to kill myself. I was not taking care of myself at all. I would wake up and cry and vomit.”

Now, far be it from me to be flippant about someone's emotional pain -- ahhh, forget it. I can't even say that with a straight face. But what I'm trying to get at is that the people who go around blabbing about how they wanted or tried to off themselves, might not be totally genuine. Not that I'm calling Ryan Phillippe a faker or anything. But remember the goth kid in high school? The one who always said he's really gonna do it for real this time, and then one day at lunch eats like half a bottle of children's chewable Tylenol, but goes to the school nurse after he "realizes what he's done" and she calls an ambulance and the next day school holds an assembly where everyone talks about how sad it is when you know the kid is secretly loving it? Yeah? Well, I'm just saying that kid was probably Ryan Phillippe. Can you totally picture him wearing the crappy "Jane" eyeliner and writing bad poetry? Case closed.
