It's more acceptable than b*llsh*t I guess but means the same and could be used in polite company.

Quite apt.
I'm sure it'll take off.

I would coin the term "DubYap".
I had a bit of that this morning, when a young brother was keen to explain to me why the new RNWT Bible was gray ... a way to represent the "sword of the spirit". Ermmm.... right. DubYap.

Just thought I would let you all know. You are not speaking English. As a JW I used many words and phrases that I know are not English, now joining the exJW world I need to learn this apo slanguage you speak of.
Please translate for me my first new word
DUB
I have seen it a lot and cant put it into a phrase. I know the word sheeple- thats cool ----self explainitory
thanks kate xx
