sotticism 

A sotticism is a statement that denotes lack of judgement and wit. It possibly originates from the French word "sottise" which means incongruent, stupid, trifle idea or action.
Saying that ones religion is the only true one is a sotticism that only a one-eyed, one-minded, one-sided and one lame of a leg person can possibly sustain.

Stoicism 

The ancient philosophy of Epictetus, Seneca the Younger, and Marcus Aurelius, among others. Stoicism focuses on living a virtuous life, and devoting yourself fully to your task at hand, while stressing indifference to the events outside of your control. Stoicism teaches that the quality of life depends entirely on the individual, and that events can only make you persistently depressed or unhappy when you are a faggot.

Stoics experience emotion like any other person, they have just realized that it is a self-harming choice to allow emotions to effect your well-being after the initial emotional reaction has passed.

A Stoic is, in effect, the extreme polar opposite of an emo.
Person 1: I find it amazing how Brian continues to exert amazing effort in his career, keep a polite demeanor around others, and continue to ritually hit the gym every morning even though his wife died last month.

Person 2: Brian practices Stoicism, he knows that reducing work ethic, ceasing politeness, or jeopardizing his health because his wife died is completely illogical.

2: Okay, *listens to song*.

2: It's shit. (this criticism offers no advice, therefore is not constructive, and is therefore shiticism).
