Lvl 77: How to Be a Good Bullsh***er

Listen Later

Bullshitting takes a lot of skill and effort.

I mean if you want to do it properly and not get caught of course.

It requires lots and lots of prep work, memorization, and even acting skills to be an efficient liar.

Here's what a good bullshitter's lie must include:

  1. Have some level of truth to it
  2. Add an embarrassing detail
  3. Don’t include other people
  4. Make it simple
  5. Lie with purpose
  6. Tell the story backwards
  7. Answer a question with another question
  8. Believe the Lie (or at least have Confidence in it)

    9. All of that or you could make the process one step:

    1. Tell the truth.

      2. It's good to know how to do things the HARD way so you can appreciate the easy way sometimes, which is why in TODAY'S BLOG, we go over how to put in the blood, sweat, and tears into lying successfully.

      The goal of the article is NOT to encourage you to actually become a good bullshitter yourself but to...

      a) be able to recognize when someone is and...

      b) realize that being honest is much easier than bullshitting

      Remember, even with these PRO Bullshit tactics, there's no 100% bluff success rate and you risk the person ever fully trusting you again. Ever.

      The juice just ain't worth the squeeze, man.

      Take it easy and live an honest lazy life, free from bullshit.
