Find a word related to B A L D E R D A S H

The idea is to find an English word (synonym or antonym related to the word –

B A L D E R D A S H (sustantivo) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Or an unusual use of the word.

Example:

I find that most of what has been said by most of our leaders about recent religiously motivated terrorist attacks to be almost complete balderdash.

Me parece que la mayoría de lo que se ha dicho por la mayoría de nuestros líderes sobre los ataques terroristas de inspiración religiosa recientes para ser un disparate casi completa.

That offends me - how should I react?

Eso me ofende - ¿cómo debo reaccionar?

Pictures are a good idea.

This link might help you find some ideas.

We have no official corrector for this challenge yet.

I think I can manage to be the corrector for the English ?

Please encourage everyone by voting for them and me.wink

This was the previous challenge.

Agreed, quite entertaining :) You have to admit though, global warming isn't nearly as bad as the media make it out to be :) - 00ffada9, Jan 21, 2015
Not yet. Well, not unless you're a polar bear or an Alaska native whose village is underwater. - AnnRon, Jan 25, 2015

I see much vulgarity scrawled on walls in public places, of which most is rubbish...

Por lo menos él admite que su cabeza está llena de tonterías, pero generalmente la gente no lo reconocen.

At least he admits that his head is full of nonsense, but usually people do not recognize it.

Hay gente que cree que todo lo que los científicos escriben sobre los efectos de los seres humanos en el medio ambiente es de paparruchas, y hay otra gente que cree que estamos causando la extinción más masiva desde hace 70 millones de años, pero la mayoría simplemente prefiere ignorarlo y vivir sus vidas como si nada estuviera ocurriendo.

There are people that think that everything that the scientists write about the effects of human beings on the environment is a bunch of drivel, and there are other people that think that we are in the midst of causing the most massive extinction in the past 70 million years, but the majority simply prefer to ignore it and live their lives as if nothing were happening.
