Horses and bulls make a bit of sense, big animals make big poos. Calling something a big poo means it is very stinky, a huge waste, etc. Very yucky. But bat poos? Those are teeny tiny, small bats make small poos. What do people have against the poos of bats?
Also, what about larger animals? Whale poos are huge, and yaks, buffalos, etc. all make big poos. Don’t ask me how I know.
Bullshit is meaningless talk or meaningless tasks.
Horseshit is a falsehood.
Batshit is crazy or deranged.
Dogshit is something low-quality.
Apeshit is out of control angry or excited
Chickenshit means “contemptible.”
Calling someone cowardly was my understanding of chickenshit.
Cowardice is indeed worthy of contempt.
Judge: “I sentence @[email protected] to life in jail for making a comment on the internet.”
You: “That’s some bullshit”
Judge: “yes, I agree that’s just meaningless talk”
Okay, meaningless or spurious.
I would suggest “without good cause” instead of “without meaning”. Related for sure… things without good cause can often have no purpose. But I think it’s the lack of just cause that makes it BS to begin with.
