Nearly every person in my life as of now is a bullshitter(even this fag here.) They talk at length about a variety of subjects, but they twist and alter certain points or moments in the tale to better fit their point of view. Or to changed minds as if we are all that naive. This is lying, and the fact that i recognize this, it is extremely hard for me to invest any faith in their beliefs. From arguments to jokes and the like, these people constantly parade themselves on a stage of bullshit. How hard is it not to exaggerate or even lie? Are you people afraid that others won't approve of you? Are you conscious of your actions and know you are twisting things and perhaps you even derive a degree of satisfaction from it? Maybe it's a little of each? More than likely it all boils down to a sometimes suppressed fear of rejection. When it is most present in the front of your mind is probably when you "go off" the most, in a desperate attempt to hide this fear--or could it just be a thought--in the nether regions of your mind. We, as social creatures are all guilty of this on occasion, it's just that some are more inclined to do this than others.
