Unless he needs to borrow money.

Oh....."Such Bullshit"

Have you seen the latest commercial for Rosland Capital with William DeVane landing his plane and then giving his bullshit pitch on Rosland Capital ? Telling us about how good he has done, and how he loves the feel of gold ?  What is with these has been movie stars ? Don't they know when it's time to quit. Who gives a shit about his horses or his plane ?  Actually, I cannot believe how many sites there are about the negativity of these ads and how much people really hate them. Well, everyone has his or her opinion.

But what can be more bullshit then Dolce and Gabbana introducing Baby Perfume ?

The answer: a new fragrance, with notes of citrus, honey, and melon, which the luxury fashion firm designed especially for the stroller set.
“The softness of baby skin, the freshness of baby breath, a mother’s sweet hug, [and] the first smile” were inspirations for the scent, meant to enhance the tot’s natural smell, Gabbana said.

    What ever happened to Baby Powder ?

This is one of my all time "Such Bullshit" observations. Getting home from food shopping and putting away the eggs in the fridge and "Yes".....finding that one cracked egg that was not visible while I was in the supermarket.

I am convinced that one cracked egg is strategically placed in those cartons to fool us all. You would think in 2013 that someone would really come up with an unbreakable egg carton.

Lip Sync

Of course the cartoon above (not to be confused with the egg carton) speaks for itself. Talk about "Such Bullshit".  Don't know which is worse ?

But to the rescue comes dear old Ashley Dupre.. Those of you might remember her as the ex call girl who single handily was responsible to taking down Ex Governor Eliot Spitzer. She has written a book as well as had a baby. It's about sex tips and relationship advice. 

Actually, the reality is she is the only thing I have just written about that probably isn't "Such Bullshit".  It's also the only thing that is actually believable.

As a quick note.......I have been sick as a dog this past week and have not felt like writing or in fact doing anything. (except maybe napping)
    
    

Being stuck in the house for about a week on antibiotics and cold stuff really does suck. But that is a topic for another blog.
       
           
    

    
       

Bullshit

This is a subject I majored in while doing my post graduate work years ago. Who knew how handy it would be....I think there will be some interesting facts on this a little later....Had a late, fun filled night and what is left of my brain is not exactly working so well...
     But it will improve later....I fucking hope.......

Not Bullshit by CRaPUSA

   

Free ? In a while ???????

Did you say Free ??????   You know that is bullshit............Come back after you have finished shopping and I will explain ??????    (should be done tonight, or tomorrow )

Huh ????

??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Sorry but the brain has been in slow motion lately due to the severe hot weather.  I will have another bullshit story to tell tomorrow.

Bullshit...........Really

Lets face it.....Bullshit is all around us....We tell it on a daily basis.....We hear it on a daily basis... We see it on a daily basis........And we know it exists all around us.....I for one can probably name a dozen times daily that I come in contact with this.....(and it is not always coming from me).
      Our daily events usually gives us some time to watch the news on TV, or on line. There, I can stop right now. There is more bullshit coming from the news on a daily basis. Every time a politician, newscaster,  interviewer etc. opens their mouth.........out comes bullshit.  Watch or listen to any entertainer and what comes out ???? That is correct.....Bullshit.

     The bottom line is you can't really watch or listen to anything without getting your share of bullshit.  Take a trip to the store.......any type of store........Look at the prices.......Look at the sale price.....Look at the suggested price.......Look at what your saving if it is on the receipt....Again....more bullshit.......Listen to the ads from your local Auto dealership about leasing or buying a new car......Again more bullshit......Go to work and you are faced with bullshit from early in the morning, until quitting time......If you are a boss it will be from  your employees.......If you are a worker, it will be from your boss.
    Oh......have you spoken to your spouse lately about some subject he or she needed to tell you ? I guarantee that you walked away from that thinking to yourself......Oh, what bullshit.  Or, you can go to Mens Warehouse and buy something there and the president will tell you that you will love the way it looks........I guarantee it.......?????  WTF does that mean ?????
      Here are some bullshit facts about Psychology that everyone believes.
     #1-If you let your anger out, you will feel better.
             
You always hear people talk about how "cathartic" an experience was and how much better they feel, or you'll hear them say things like, "If you keep your anger bottled up, one day you'll just snap!"
In fact the "about to go crazy because he can't express anger" character is a mainstay in television and movies (see that Simpsons episode where Ned Flanders finally loses it, and every movie where a renegade cop fires his gun into the air instead of unloading on the bad guy who just killed his wife).
Things like squeezing stress dolls, screaming into a pillow, hitting a punching bag and strangling a kitten are all practices that we've seen offered as healthy alternatives to walking up to the fish counter at Farm Fresh and drowning the clerk in the lobster tank.

    
A lot of actual therapies have been constructed around this idea, and they all basically encourage you to curb your anger by feeding a knuckle sandwich to a punching bag, to prevent you from doing the same to your boss. It makes sense, right? Why throw your wife against the refrigerator when the casserole she under-cooked will shatter to pieces in a much more literal, and satisfying way?
Why it is Bullshit:
Research says it doesn't work. Expressing your anger, even against inanimate objects, doesn't make you less angry at all. In fact, it actually makes you want to get pissed off. Imagine if Bruce Banner walked around all day looking for an excuse to hulk-out, but replace the embarrassing shredded pants with friends and loved ones who are legitimately terrified every time his favorite sports team loses.
See, we humans have these things called "habits." When we do something, and it makes us feel good, we want to do it again... and more often. This is why you don't see a lot of Buddhist monks throwing bricks through storefront windows on their path to enlightenment and Lifetime original movies spend more on broken casserole dishes than on acting. The rush of anger is addictive as hell, and letting yourself lash out as a means to control your anger is like drinking to control your urge to drink.

    2- Just believe in yourself and you will succeed.

    3-   "Be Careful! Advertisers Use Subliminal Messages to Make Us Do Things!"

     I purposely did not go into #2 and 3, but there is a link if you are really interested in the answer.

     I am not trying to be Cynical about this, but Bullshit is all around us and a big part of all our lives. Actually, I think most of us thrive on it and try to over simplify it.  I personally think it is wonderful. It keeps me going.  How many of us have friends or business associates that play that old...."Can you top this game" ????? You know that is going to include a fair amount of bullshit.

     I really think we need to embrace the word bullshit and treat it with a little more respect. After all, something that is so much a part of our daily lives certainly deserves more than we currently give it.

    So the next time you are at a sports event or are watching some sport on TV and the ref makes a bad call and your yelling out Bullshit................be proud.....

Sorry

Really Sorry......Blogger was down for 2 days and I was unable to post anything.......Lost my train of thought on Bullshit.......But.........be patient...... It's coming.........really......And that is not Bullshit

Bullshit

Ahhhhh, I feel some inspiration coming.....I sense some Bullshit in the future......Yup..........Lot's of Bullshit is on the way............stay tuned.......

    

Yes that is Bullshit

Bullshit sums it up. In fact, I could probably post 5/6 pictures here and everyone will agree with me. Sometimes I like to watch the news on TV.  I have to admit that I am very conservative, but certainly respect everyone's right to choose.  I especially like to watch debates of all sorts as they are a wonderful source of comedy.  If there are no debates, I will be entertained by one of the many news anchors doing an interview with 2 people with different views that are always on a split screen. That is much better than any reality show there is today.

     There is no way either of the opposing guests will ever answer a direct question.  Why is it so impossible to any of these idiots to simply give a Yes, No, or Direct answer ?  Easy..........They are all full of shit and will never dwell into the real problem.  They pussy foot around and tap dance at the same time.  At times I want to throw something at these idiots for not answering any question with a direct answer.  I am amazed that some of these anchors let their guests get away with this. 
    There are solutions for this that are really quite simple. If I was an anchor, I would do some of the following. I would give them a certain amount of time to answer and then cut them off if they don't adhere to this...........I would ask a lot of questions that only require a yes or no, and make them aware they are only one word answers.........I would have a tazer gun next to me and simply tazer them if I didn't like the answer...........Or I would simply tell them to answer the fucking question directly and taze them anyway........I would also organize my competitors in the hopes of everyone doing the same thing.
    As a viewer, I have also simplified the problem for myself.  I try to watch only Megan Kelly or one of her clones.  This is a very good solution. It is also very soothing on your eyes.

     But to get serious for a minute, I just don't get all the skipping around.  Is every single political person, entertainer, sports figure, or what have you so afraid to tell the truth ?  Are they all simply afraid that something will be taken out of context and used against them in the future ? Or are they all just covering their ass for anything that might not be liked by some, or is this just the way of life?

     Whatever it is, whatever the reason, whatever gets said, or whatever we think they say..........you know damn well they have covered and supported both the Pros and Con's of whatever subject they are talking about........So I say to you Mr. Politician, or Mr. Advocate, Or Mr. Democrat, or Mr. Republic, or you left or right winger, or you fighting for tall people or short people, or skinny people or fat people.....or...............well who cares........It's all Bullshit.

    

Bullshit

I don't know about you, but I am so tired of Bullshit that I am ready to scream.  Think I am going to sound like Andy Rooney now, but I can't stand it anymore. There is so much bullshit around us, it is almost funny.
    Driving back from the gym before I noticed the cranes and construction equipment on the bridge coming into the island where I live.  They have been doing some work on it for months now, although it was promised to be complete a while ago.  When I pass daily, I never see more than 4/5 people working and 3 of them are giving orders to the other one or two.  Bullshit............. Then I drive to my condo and pass the ugly lights and landscaping that was going to be completely redone with antique lighting etc. almost one year ago... Of course that has not even been started.. More bullshit.
     Just glancing at today's NY Post and see that NYC passes students even if the test scores are wrong. That does not surprise me, but again, more bullshit.......Bernie Madoff has told some people in jail to F*** his victims.  Said he carried them for 20 years and now he is doing 150. That does not sound like bullshit.  Good for you Bernie.. It's true....Those poor victims did not say a word for 20 years when they were making money every year.  That is bullshit as well.......The US will not openly support Israel on this embargo thing....That too is bullshit........LeBron's not going or going to NY or somewhere else.....That is bullshit and who cares.???? All of us care only about the sports team that we love and follow....I don't think that is Bullshit............And people with 11,293 friends on facebook???????????  Are they really your friends ?   Bullshit...........And some of those friends who pimp a club or restaurant they are obviously associated with........That's bullshit...........What about that person who tells you they will call you back in a few minutes and then it is a few days instead???? Is that bullshit or them just telling you something????  I bet there is not a person reading this not laughing right now and thinking of at least five things they think are bullshit and that have bothered them today.
       Last night while with some people at a bar having a quick drink, I ran into a similar bullshit situation.  There was an ugly, thick couple sitting next to us with a seat open right next to them.  I asked them to please move over one, so we would be able to have all of us sit together.   They did not want to at all.. I just stood there next to the disgusting woman and tried in the worse way to fart. Needless to say that when you don't want to you do, and when you want to you don't.....That is my bullshit for the day.
