[PSUBS-MAILIST] It's time for this one again: Bullshit bingo for submarine design discussions

[Michael B Holt <tlohm@juno.com>]

It's been almost two years since I posted it.


Do you keep panicking at some ideas you hear offered during
submarine design discussions?   Do you worry that others 
may not recognize those ideas for what they are?

"Bullshit Bingo" is a way to change all of that:

1.  Before (or during) your next meeting, on-line discussion, or 
new thread, prepare your "Bullshit Bingo" card by drawing a 
square (I find that  5" x 5 "is a good size) and dividing it into 
columns -- five across and  five down.   That will give you 25 
1-inch blocks.

2.  Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:

a) no-cost
b) propane
c) automotive
d) impossible
e) never deeper than
f) accepted practice
g) take that off-line
h) gasoline/petrol
i) completely safe
j) good enough
k) nuclear
l) cast iron
m) win-win
n) think outside the box
o) determined after launching
p) result-driven
q) PVC/plastic
r) knowledge base
s) probably doesn't matter
t) will never happen
u) mindset
v) government surplus
w) ballpark
x) plywood
y) riveted

3.  Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of those
words/phrases.

4.  When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or 
diagonally, stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"

Testimonials from satisfied "Bullshit Bingo" players are
hereby solicited.
