Topic: Bullshit (game)


  
  Bullshit
Talking bullshit is thus a lesser form of lying, and is likely to ellicit a correspondingly weaker emotional response: whereas a liar may be greeted with outrage and hatred, an exponent of bullshit tends to be dismissed with a disinterested sneer.
Bullshit is commonly employed in sales, advertising, journalism and the broadcast media, and in some areas of religion, politics and "borderline" sciences such as sociology, where truth and accuracy are far less important than the ability to acheive a suitable response in the audience.
Bullshit is also the more common name for a card game often described by the milder name "I doubt it", usually played by children.

 Bullshit (game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bullshit is the more common name for a card game often described by the milder names "Butterscotch," "I doubt it" or "Peanut Butter." It is also known by other euphemisms such as "BS", "Cheat", "Schmeat", or by making up another name with the BS acronym.
One strategy, not widely known, is for a player to call "Bullshit" consistently until he or she has a hand containing at least one card of each rank.
Bullshit is portrayed in the 2003 Motion Picture How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, in which the lead actress cheats with the assistance from co-players.

 Bullshit, the Card Game
If another player doubts the cards played were the right rank, he or she announces the name of the game (usually Bullshit), the announced number of cards is flipped.
The game ends when a player is out, although some circles play until there is only one person left (jokers should be removed from the game once there are three or fewer people left).
Bullshit, Asshole, and Mao are party games that require not thought but attention.

 The Next Hurrah: Bullshit
It becomes obvious then that not all bullshit is bad, and that in fact we may not all agree what bullshit is. If you are alone, penniless, without shelter, food or water, then the high-minded studies of a scientist or philosopher really are meaningless bullshit.
It seems to me that your definition of bullshit is another way to describe this reality-creation, and that a lot of the discussion on the leftward blogs for the past several years has circled around whether the Busheviks knew that their contrived reality was bullshit, or if they actually believed it.
Bullshit in that sense is an attempt to evade and obfuscate.

 Drinking Games at Bar-None
If someone thinks that you are lying, they say "Bullshit!" If that person is right, you drink an amount proportional to the number of cards in the stack; lots of cards already played = lots of drinks.
However, if you were honest in your play and someone says "Bullshit!" that person ends up drinking the prescribed amount.
Oh, by the way, if you have to drink because of either being caught bullshitting or falsely accusing, in addition to drinking, you must also pick up all of the cards already played and add them to your hand.

This game is generally called Cheat in Britain and Bullshit in the USA.

 Defining bullshit. - By Timothy Noah - Slate Magazine
It is possible to bullshit somebody, but it is not possible to poppycock, or to twaddle, or to horseshit anyone.
In this respect the word "bullshit" is identical to the word "lie," for when we speak of a lie we speak, implicitly, of the action that brought the lie into being: Somebody lied.
Bullshit, Frankfurt notes, is an inevitable byproduct of public life, "where people are frequently impelled—whether by their own propensities or by the demands of others—to speak extensively about matters of which they are to some degree ignorant." But politics is not a creation of the modern era; it's been around for centuries.

 Bullshit parallels (kottke.org)
The essence of bullshit, Frankfurt decides, is that it is produced without any concern for the truth.
But this does not mean that he necessarily gets them wrong." The bullshitter's fakery consists not in misrepresenting a state of affairs but in concealing his own indifference to the truth of what he says.
As Frankfurt sees it, the liar and the truthteller are playing on opposite sides of the same game, a game defined by the authority of truth.

 About Bullshit Bingo
In 1999 I was working for a software company in San Rafael, CA when a co-worker handed me a piece of paper before a meeting.
I could always tell when the link had been sent out on a mailing list, or was recently linked from a high traffic site by the amount of email I would start getting with these sort of requests.
In October 2005 after getting linked to from a major blog, getting a new flood of email requests for new features, and a lot of pushing from my co-workers, I decided it was time to move the site to a new home.
