smoke up one’s ass

middle-age American living in New Jersey near the Lincoln Tunnel «« Donovan: Grazie for the time on the phone.  We talked while I was on a recreational walk with my wife between point AAA 974 J F Kennedy Blvd E Weehawken NJ 07086 and point BBB 974 J F Kennedy Blvd E Weehawken NJ 07086, which google says should take 46 minutes.  It’s a picturesque walk high on the palisades above the Hudson River including seeing the Verrazano Bridge and the GWB from various points.  Por supuesto the Manhattan skyline is in between.  I had planned to walk with Hana and talk to you including preparing Hana for my attention to be elsewhere, so your timing was perfect.  “Pay to play” is what I remember most of our conversation, and I want to add another phrase to reinforce the memory, but first I’ll reintroduce Josh.  Josh is the one internet marketer who persisted trying to sell me a website and SEO services.  His pitch was distinctive, because he knew of the amount of attention I attract and retain online whereas the other pros just harvested my phone number and pitched me blind.  Josh assured me what I was hungry to hear that my recreational activity online could be leveraged with the website he would build.  My activity would make Josh’s website perform even better.  I checked the use of this phrase in urban dictionary, and it’s exactly what I remember from childhood.  Josh was blowing smoke up my ass.
