Depends on which definition of BS you apply to it. Real BS contains some elements of truth (IMO) mixed with elements of fiction. The above is all fiction, no real way you could expect anyone to believe it, and your intention is likely not to have anyone believe it. The statement is more pure nonsense than anything... however some define BS to be nonsense... so it depends on who you talk to.
To me, BS is a more subtle use of truth and fiction to persuade people to believe something that may not other wise be entirely true. To me BS is much more complex than just nonsense. You have to be smart about how you mix in the truth I think for it to be real BS.
It's not easy... it's a complicated subject. We're all learning about it here.
Don't worry... you'll get better over time... I improve my BS every day... detecting it... writing it...chatting about it... and doing it
It's a beautiful thing.
