With intent to offend

“It is part of a good education to know when it is necessary to be rude.” Joan Fuster says so in her recently reissued book of Advice, proverbs and insolence. Aphorisms, at least the good ones, are not more or less funny occurrences like a tweet. They are, according to Jordi Muñoz in the prologue

A few weeks ago, Restarting Badalona was absolutely in favor of the City Council presenting its candidacy to be able to organize and host the Copa del Rey basketball tournament. So much so that we are even organizing an event to explain to the city the benefits of hosting major events, why it is important

Bullshit

In English, the word bullshit is used to refer to lies and all kinds of statements and arguments that we consider uncertain. It is a dirty word, a word, but widely used.
