This is some I've thought about more lately. It's taboo to use the word "lie" and accuse people of lying... I am attempting to use it in my vocabulary more and more, when appropriate. Which is surprisingly often. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I've been wondering for a while why society only has one word for all the different forms of lying. Lying by omission, lying intentionally, lying because you dont know, lying to save yourself, lying without thinking, lying for self benefit there are more... These should all get their own words so that we can always pinpoint exactly which version we think the other person did instead of having to shout "you lied!!111" and then nobody knows what on earth you are talking about. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I've noticed the word "bullshit" is making a big comeback, which is encouraging to me. Because, good Lord, is there ever so much bullshit. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
