About this deal

In his role as 'Chief Guru of Imagineering" he only ever talks using the latest buzzwords, business idioms and bullshit phrases. He then told me about the Kastelt and how much he longed to believe it was real but confessed he had his doubts because it sounded like complete bollocks.

Known a couple of bullshitters, although unfortunately none who were really funny, just quite standard. Mind you, this didn’t stop him telling us about the time he went on holiday to Spain and ended up in a gun battle around the swimming pool. This book is cringey (in itself, a non-existent word used to describe something cringe worthy, or to make me sound hip and cool just because more people have been using the word since late 2015). we all (me her, her DP and my DH) went to a comedy show and had to travel so we spent nearly all day in there company.Try and get her to dump this loser, he sounds like the very unscenic route to an unhappy marriage and divorce. A journalist friend of mine wanted to talk to him about it in more depth for an article, and he very quickly clammed up and backed down, saying "Well, things like that aren't really something I'd want to publicise, let's leave it there. I then record their tête-à-têtes outside where they mount wishy-washy half-arsed justifications of what they’ve witnessed. Taxi driver told me he picked up Alexis Sale and Jane Seymour at the same time and Alexis sale like him so much he invited him to a dinner he was having with Paul Macca. I'm making involuntary noises that don't even sound much like laughing, noises akin to when Arthur Fowler smashed up his front room after getting caught stealing the Christmas club money.

After 30+ years in advertising (an industry which thrives on a steady diet of BS and has more than its fair share of Billy's) I thought I had heard all the bullshit phrases that had ever been uttered.

Living with the things she's done to attain the perfect life has left her questioning where her ethical line lies and how far she will push it back if necessary. The Forum currently has over ninety authors trading tips, sharing marketing secrets and offering advice and encouragement. He had time to think about it, had warning not to say it and went ahead anyway then created an atmosphere by rowing with his partner!

He used to come out with these on a regular basis, and despite none of us ever believing them and mocking him quite mercilessly for being a bullshitter, he never once backed down. I had a friend who divorced her husband after it turned out his childhood in Iceland was entirely fictitious and he grew up in Goole. I mentioned it all to my divorce lawyer who was actually a retired Navy Seal, who promptly rewrote the divorce petition to include half of my ex's military pension (which of course didn't exist, because the Marines tend not to send 10 year olds charging into snipers' nests). But, here are some of the ways that could help you identify the better of the Billy-Bullshitters in your life.When I was at primary school, this girl told me that, “my dad works in a daisy chain factory and he made a daisy chain that goes ALL AROUND THE PLAYING FIELD. Also apparently been banned from North Korea, shot, worked as a professional martial artist-cum-dancer in a club blah blah blah. He’s a misogynistic pig and I’d cheerfully fire anyone like him in my organization, but you can’t help but laugh at the nonsense he spews. Then I take a picture of the audience’s flabbergasted, startled expressions, as they realise it was bullshit but they hadn’t dare say it out loud!
