Ha! These guys get it.

One week till spring break, and you know what that means: MIDTERMS! I have finance and marketing tests this week, as well as a take home final for my leadership class. After spending 8 hours writing the most ridiculous paper on Coca-Cola, I proudly bounded out of my room and loudly exclaimed to my roommates that I had finished principle bullshittery, or the rough cut. All it needs now is a quick edit before I send it in.

I felt quite amused with myself after uttering it. And for the second time in a row, this one is not in Urban Dictionary yet. I think it really sums up the paper writing process which, as any cinematographer will tell you, is an art form.

prin·ci·pal·bull·shit·a·ry [prin-suh-pahl-bool-shit-uh-ree]

-noun

1. The phase during which a paper is mostly written, usually including large amounts of fluff. The draft is then sent for final editing or 'post': Hey Nick, I just finished principal bullshittery on my take home final, one quick edit tomorrow and I'm turning it in.
