pre-thunk

Thoughts that you are wise enough to formulate before they are needed.
The reason I can respond to your inane bullshit with a coherent argument expressed succinctly and delivered in but six seconds is because I have pre-thunk thoughts and you are a parrot parroting the parrots on Fox News.

Reductio ad Absurdum

A process of making something stupid because that is what Google says it is.

For Example: If you put “Reductio ad Absurdum” into Google Translate it detects the language as Latin, and translates it to English as: “Reductio ad Absurdum.”

Another Example: For years (through May 29, 2018 at least) if you ask Google "What does it mean to be an American?" it responds with this as the first answer (in a box even):

"It means that I can say "The Pledge of Allegiance" and that I can vote for the President, my county clerk, and the Mayor. But to me it means most of all to be free and to be proud that I live in the United States of America here in Wisconsin."

Dig deeper and you'll find it is written by an 10-year-old who, in addition to thinking that the U. S. is in Wisconsin, does not know that to be an American means she is free to NOT say the pledge and that she has 10 years to go before she can vote.

Thank you Google for establishing a 10-year-old as the #1 expert on what it means to be a patriot. Way to go.
If we're going to Make America Great Again we've got to stop all this Reductio ad Absurdum going on.

Double Word Float

Two single word (or 64 binary digits) capable of expressing numbers as large as 1.7 E 308, which is 1 E 206 times the number of atoms in the known universe. (1.7 E 308 means 1.7 times 10 raised to the 308th power.)
Why did the system crash? After we got sued for coding gender as binary we decided to use double word floats instead. That worked in beta test in New York but when we brought California on-line the whole thing crashed.

subroutine

Anything a sub does for a dom on a routine basis without needing to be told.
We're headed for divorce. This is the third time in two years that I've come home and you haven't cleaned the house, cooked dinner and greeted me at the door on all fours. You know it's part of your subroutine.

Notnomic

Notnomic was created by people who want to explore different forms of governance because although Nomic was originally invented by philosopher Peter Suber for that purpose, the discussion had become idiotic. Although (as of 2019) that hasn't happened to Notnomic yet, Nomicisists predict it will by the end of the 2020 election cycle, and if Trump is reelected for a third term in 2024, they expect Notnomic to be outlawed.

Note: Mathematical purists refer to the game as Aleph-Naught Nomic so as to make it clear that the game has a “countably infinite” number of turns in contrast to irrationally infinite number of turns. Regardless, Aleph-Naught Nomic's not Nomic.

Carol: I've rolled a 3. That makes the score for the Democrats 142,311,102 vs. 142,311,099 for the Republicans. I propose that we get rid of the filibuster. May we have a vote?

Ted: I've rolled a 5. That gives me the floor. First, I would like to point out that as a representative of the great state of Alabama, which joined the union on the fourteenth of December in, 1819, and which – if my math serves me right – is more than 100 years ago – has, I might add, the best primary school mathematics teachers in this great Union, who I will propose in forthcoming legislation that we honor by making ...
