Actually I think you'll find that it isn't shit, it is bad. Shit is an subjective judgment and not objective.

if someone starts a sentence with 'apparently'

it is a caveat
i wish i could remember where i read the "actually" thing. i'd like to say my friend's psychology textbook (she's doing a phD in psychology, how scary is that), but it was probably the national enquirer.
