Kelly – Your awesomeness continues! Late to comment but I bookmarked this a couple weeks back. I think we are all guilty of spewing B.S. (hopefully unintentionally) in an attempt to market ourselves, product, service, etc… In my field, “greenwashing” has become rampant. It’s gross and counterproductive. I am trying my best to ensure that I along with my clients don’t fall into the trap. Your brilliant B.S. detection device is invaluable! Thanks!

Now if only I could get a b.s. detection chip installed in my brain….

In the South, I grew up hearing, ‘bless his little heart’. You could be saying someone was bufugly, and vile but make it all better with ‘bless her little heart’.

I wonder if ti works the same way for copy?

How shrill does my dinosaur voice have to be?

Scary funny- and making me want to write copy less and less on my own, perfectionism already not pretty.

Other side effects of not waiting the 24 hours to edit.. mindless trance-like staring into refrigerator.

I am still hung up on how much other people’s BS copy sells (you know who I’m talkin’ about!)

thanks Kelly-

Briana, “bless his little puppet heart” just became my favorite phrase. I’m looking for the very next chance to use it!

Lindsey, my theory is that cringing is like lifting weights. You know you’re doing it right when you feel the burn. If you’re not cringing, you’re not writing hard enough. So, yay, us!

So, Victoria, yes, I’ll have Aaaaagw’s people contact your people. Be on the lookout for Aaaagw’s assistant–a tiny lizard wearing a trenchcoat.
I always start with “so,” too. It just makes sense. So?

Megan! Yes! A Mastermind Group, of COURSE! Why didn’t Aaaaagw think of that? It’s like if it doesn’t involve television cameras or celebrity endorsements, he’s not interested.

Josiane, as are you.

Can I hire Aaaaaagw to come over and read my copy to see how it sounds? (Okay, I confess. I’m just looking for an excuse to hang out with him.)

I have a propensity for committing sin #9. My favorite is to start sentences with “So…” I’m always having to go back and take at least a few of them out.

So glad Aaaaaagw convinced you to share this device!

“Arithmetic, no hands!”

I laughed until I cried. And then I went back to the article I am working on and scanned it. You’re right – I did indeed feel a slight cringe.
