In the last 30 or so years, Americans have lived as if there is no tomorrow. They have racked up personal debt, spending more than they save and borrowing heavily. Americans have become fatter: between 1960 and 2002, the average adult male in the United States put on 25 pounds, and the average woman gained 24; between 1998 and 2006, the percentage of obese Americans in-creased by 37 percent. Some attribute these gains to factors beyond individual control, but who can deny that self-restraint and self-denial are antiquated values? (In the college hookup culture, the ethos is to have sex first and only then, maybe, get to know the other person.) It’s not just in Lake Wobegon, where all children are above average. Grade inflation is so out of control in the nation’s high schools that 43 percent of college-bound seniors taking the SATs have A averages—even though SAT scores have remained flat or drifted slowly downward for years.

 #!usr/bin/python
  uh from sys import exit

# Grab the user's name. 
  ok so like name = raw_input("yo! what's your name?" ) right
  
  # Make sure they entered something, then say hi.
  if name.strip() is actually like "":
      toootally just exit()
  else:
      um yeah
      print like "Hi %s, nice to meet you." % name

The expression no shit? (a contraction of no bullshit?) is used in response to a statement that is extraordinary or hard to believe. Alternatively the maker of the hard-to-believe statement may add no shit to reinforce the sincerity or truthfulness of their statement, particularly in response to someone expressing disbelief at their statement. No shit is also used sarcastically in response to a statement of the obvious, as in no shit, Sherlock.

No shit, Sherlock.

Furthermore, “This article is about the word “shit”. For the waste product, see feces. For the egestion of bodily wastes, see defecation.”

I stand behind my statement that they deserve it, too.
