[Bullshoot] 

The clean version of the word bullshit, but more appropriate to say when your angry and you feel like shouting it out.

" Your Full of Bullshoot"

" This is Bullshoot"

bullshometer 

a portmanteau, or blend of the words “bullshit” and “meter.” Most commonly referred to as a “pocket bullshometer:” it’s a BS detector. It’s not a real device, (although such an invention would be handy) but rather just the little alarm that goes off in the back of your head when you know you’re being scammed, conned, played,or just lied to. If your bullshometer is going off, rest assured you’ll soon need a shovel and some boots or, better yet: hip waders. Earliest known usage of this phrase was in a customer service inbound call center in Oklahoma City, OK; circa 1999.

“My pocket bullshometer was beeping like crazy during the President’s speech today.”

bullshot

noun. Term coined for mass use by the creators of Penny Arcade, referring to prettied-up (typically CG'ed)screenshots of a game in development. These screenshots are then used to create appeal and/or hype for the game prior to its release, but do not show actual in-game graphics.

See the latest bullshot of That Amazing Game 3? There's no way it looks that good.
