Such sensitivity.. I don't get it. She has issues at home is my guess..

To refer to the thing going on as something like "frivolous" would remove the thought of fecal matter. I can understand the use of cuss word slang is about all the vocabulary some people have to describe things. That is what is bad about most cuss words is they have more than one meaning.

Bullshit can give people thoughts imagining a bull squeezing shit out of its anus. When something that is not a cow, when it has nothing to do with a bull shitting, some people do not want the extra thoughts when you describe something going on as bullshit.

As to say "bs" instead of bullshit would be basically the same thing. Would you say "stinky baby diaper" instead of bullshit? Its basically putting the image or thought of poop, shit, bat guano, fecal matter into people's thoughts. Sugar coating shit with "BS" is just like the white stuff on top of bird shit. It's just MORE shit.

fuck'em if they can't take a joke.

Oh wow .
Every night when I walk in and after I get report from off going charge , I gather my team and i lay out the plan , or what we hope the plan to be .
This gatherings last less than 7 mnt , and normally I start with Or similar to : “ here today’s f menu , u get shit , u get shit plus shit , u get shit w sugar and spice , and I get fuck my life plus I ll look after yours all shit “.
I am truly sorry u had to be sensored . I can’t imagine , words are not the problem , actions or absence of action is the problem .
Hugs .
