"Like them all, Avraam adored Panos. 'He had an unbelievable rationality,' Avraam told me that first evening. 'He was no BOOL-sheeter.'"
What's the meaning of BOOL-sheeter?
I've never seen that before, but suspect that it is a euphemistic spelling of "bullshitter," meaning someone who tells stories, someone who lies, or makes things up.
I suspect it is an attempt to indicate that Avraam is a heavily accented non-native speaker, given that his name and Panos are both common in Greece.
Unfortunately Justin Xu failed to state the origin of the quote, a common failing on here.
