Bah, Humbug. We curse so much in class.
We had to read this paper called "On Bullshit", by Harry Frankfurt. This guy says that there is "so much bullshit" in the world nowadays. I definitely agree...
A lot of things are bullshit. I mean, in school and even college so many kids clearly bullshit their way through many situations. I'd say it's more in English Class because it's hard to bullshit math and engineering. But then again, we can't be sure wether it is bullshit or not... I mean, is this bullshit?
Anyways, this guy also says that humbug and bullshit are very similar in meaning.
It's not that I've heard the word a lot but I guess he's right. A lot of bad things happened to Scrooge, and when bad things happen to us we think of it as bullshit.
I feel like this post is a little bit of bullshit. Frankfurt is right: Bullshit is everywhere.
