crock of shit
Complete utter baloney
A crock of shit is something utterly false, worthless, or nonsensical—a vulgar dismissal of claims, explanations, or situations perceived as deceptive or absurd.
The expression likely derives from crock as a container, suggesting a vessel full of excrement.
His excuse about the car breaking down was a crock of shit.
The phrase is emphatic and contemptuous, often used when someone feels insulted by an obvious lie or flimsy justification.
