the essence of bullshit and how not be a bullshitter

Thus it is important for us to take bullshit seriously, and understand the nature of bullshit.  We need to know what constitutes “bullshit” and reflect on when and why we bullshitted in the past, in order to avoid doing so in the future. 

In the excerpt of "on Bullshit," Frankfurt uses Wittgenstein's reaction to Pascal's statement "I feel just like a dog that has been run over" to illustrate the nature of bullshit.  "To the Wittgenstein in Pascal's story, judging from his response, this is just bullshit." (par. 3).  How so? 

According to Frankfurt, "because he perceives what Pascal says as being - roughly speaking, for now - unconnected to a concern with the truth. Her statement is not germane to the enterprise of describing reality. She does not even think she knows, except in the vaguest way, how a run-over dog feels. Her description of her own feeling is, accordingly, something that she is merely making up. She concocts it out of whole cloth; or, if she got it from someone else, she is repeating it quite mindlessly and without any regard for how things really are. It is for this mindlessness that Pascal's Wittgenstein chides her." (par. 4 & 5).  For Wittgenstein, "[h]er fault is not that she fails to get things right, but that she is not even trying" (par. 6) 

Through the discussion of Wittgenstein's reaction to Pascal's statement, Frankfurt defines bullshit as such " It is just this lack of connection to a concern with truth - this indifference to how things really are - that I regard as of the essence of bullshit. . . . ..  To be more precise, when a person says something, s/he does not care about whether what s/he says is true, and does not even bother to find out, this person is a bullshitter, and what s/he says is bullshit.
