Vulgar but versatile: dog shit works literally (canine excrement, the bane of urban pavements everywhere) and figuratively in two distinct ways. It can mean physical rubbish or worthless junk — clearing out the dog shit from a junk room means chucking the useless stuff. It also means total nonsense, lies, or baseless garbage talk — when someone's story doesn't add up, it's dog shit. The phrase has a satisfying directness; it doesn't hedge or euphemise. Whatever deserves the label, dog shit calls it exactly what it is.
He sat through two hours of corporate buzzword dog shit before anyone mentioned the actual budget cuts.
