The art of bullshitting

A lie is a statement made by someone who believes or suspects it to be false, in the expectation that the hearers may believe it. Thus a true statement may be a lie if the speaker thinks it is false. Fictions, though false, are not lies. Depending on definitions, a lie can be a genuine falsehood or a selective truth, a lie by omission, or even the truth if the intention is to deceive or to cause an action not in the listener's interests. To lie is to tell a lie. ...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lie

Everyone lies. Be it a white lie, black lie or for whatever reason it is, everyone lies. I'd prefer to call it bullshit. Everyone bullshits. When I was young, I used to bull my way around in order to avoid getting thrashed by my mom. Of course, being inexperienced, I ended up getting thrashed throughout my primary days. Bullshitting is regardless of age and race.

Anyone can bullshit. It is the art of bullshitting convincingly which is hard. Get that a lot at my working environment. I mean bullshitting which are 0% convincing. It can be pretty irritating at times when a person try to bullshit and he aint even convincing enough. I would rather have a simple answer, perhaps more direct to the point. And most of the time, you get a lot of bullshit when you are asking for a favour -big or small. Guess I sound like I am writing all this because I got turned down when asking for a favour. Nah, I just got a bit pissed at all the unconvincing bullshit happening around. Imagine standing in front of a bull and watch it shit right there in front of you. Not a lovely sight.

My point here is, if you want to bullshit, at least make it convincing. Do not end up making a fool of yourself and pissing the one you are talking to.

Alright! Alright! I was pissed off...
