I went to visit my aunt at Christmas and, as usual, my cousin was exchanging stories with my father about politics and business. I was fascinated by the little bits of gossip they were sharing about various people they knew and certain faux pas being done. It was then that my cousin blurted out the words 'Public secret'.
Personally, I find the idea interesting. The mere thought that everyone seems to know the secrets that some people thought were very much private is not so much laughable but rather ironic. Well, the funny bit is these certain people seem convinced they can get away with the little bits of indiscretion. Sometimes I wonder if they actually realise that people know exactly what they are doing.
