The Expert’s Excerpt

Whether through movies and shows, public speakers, or the written word, I am of firm confidence there are many who "bullshit" their way along. I know this for two reasons:

First, there are numerous times I have seen, heard, or read something that had no merit at all. This is most usually because the given subject is one I have had personal experience with. As a "blue collar guy" all of my life, I have had opportunities to learn a little about a lot, and a lot about a little. Though most of the time I spot "bullshit" in film, it is also not altogether uncommon in speech and print.

Second, I know because I have done it myself. There is something I figured out early in my high school years that served me well; When it comes to public speaking and reports, both oral and written, one does not always have to know what they are talking about, one must only sound as though they know what they are talking about.
