The Art of BS [Thursday, January 29, 2015]
"Right, so we have about two weeks until Valentine's Day," Josh said, "which means it's time to find a date for that dance. And BSing--used in small quantities because open and honest communication yadda yadda relationships blah--certainly helps to grease the wheels a bit at the beginning of things."
He gestured to the supplies he'd gathered. "So today I want you to make yourself a Valentine's Day card to give to someone else with words that are flattering but not so over the top that they won't think it's sincere--and then you need to present your proposal for why you'd be a great prospect as a date to the dance. And then you can eat the conversation hearts. Because conversation hearts."
He clapped his hands together. "Okay. Go."
