Flake Detector
04/18/2007
I’ve heard of the BS detector and gaydar, but I had not heard of the “flake detector” until a friend mentioned it to me. I still think that BS and flake go together, but I’ve been told that is incorrect. When asked for an explanation of “flake,” I got “dishonest” as a synonym. But isn’t that the same as BS? Well, if anyone out there can explain, I would be grateful.
Apparently this detector is good for singles and sales. Who knew?

I’ve acquired gaydar, bs detector, flake detector and douche-detector. All I need now is an STD detector and I’d be near flawless.

Is a flake detector needed in Silicon Valley? I’d think it would be more needed in LA.

Hmmm.. I have been called a “flake” for not following the predescribed path, but I have never been called a BS er, at least accurately.
So the differences are substantial, from where I sit in the universe.
