These days I never hear the expression "bull-shit" at all.
But many years ago, in order to get the message across in the presence of
impressionable
children, the expression "heifer-dust" would be used, and the substitution was
completely
understood.
Children in those days were not supposed to learn the word "shit" as it was
considered too
rude for polite company.
