Bow Wow posting an image of a 'private jet' before being caught flying commercial has created a game

It is a truth universally acknowledged that practically everyone lies on social media.

Even so, it doesn’t hurt to remind oneself of that every now and again.

Shad Gregory Moss, who you probably know better as rapper ‘Bow Wow’ was travelling on a plane to New York.

No big.

Here’s a very modest Instagram post about the private jet he used:

Except he didn't travel privately.

A fellow passenger allegedly noticed Bow Wow on his plane, a commercial flight. Not a private jet.

And so, the #BowWowChallenge is born:

The ultimate celebration of the lies we tell:

The tiny, harmless, my-life-is-better-than-yours fibs...

It's a lesson to all, really...

The internet is a wonderful place...

So long as you don't take it too seriously...

Cheers for the reminder Bow Wow. We appreciate it.
