15 Real-World Scenarios Where Bullsh*t Man Could Save The Day

11. Political Puffing

Imagine what would happen to politics if Karl Pilkington's superpower really existed. Bullsh*t Man would be a very, very busy man indeed! Politicians make many empty promises in exchange for votes as part of the popularity game, but the added popularity can be a complete nightmare when the promises are broken. For example, when Nick Clegg managed to win the votes of many students on the back of his tuition fees promises, the subsequent U-turn caused you-know-what to hit the fan. If we had an honest, straight-forward political system then there would be no proverbial fan-hitting at all. Basically, It would prevent a lot of mess. The world would need an army of Bullsh*t Men to deal with the everyday puffing of political nonsense.

My life is an odd blend of the real and surreal. By day I study law but by night I live my life vicariously through science fiction and fantasy, as a Whovian, gamer and writer.
