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.

Bob: I'd like to call the 116th session of Notnomic to order.
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 ...
Alice: If we haven't repealed the second amendment yet, would someone please shoot that guy.

Get the proximatemug. 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.

Get the Double Word Floatmug. A federal agency established after 9/11/2001 to carry on the work of the terrorists. They help us fear nature by taking over FEMA and diverting funds that would have been spent on hurricane relief to equip meter maids with assault rifles. Constant reminders to "report suspicious behavior" to the police have made us fear each other and criminalized social anxiety disorder. Thanks to their fine efforts, being too shy to ask a girl for sex is now as likely to get you investigated as asking a girl for sex.

Get the Homeland Securitymug. The act of putting a silent “p” in front of a word so that one can create a new word that is pronounced exactly the same way so as to distinguish it from all other instances of the same word. A psmithsized word can mean exactly the same thing, something completely different or anything in between.
The word was first coined by Rupert Psmith, a much loved fictional character from phumor writer P. G. Wodehouse. According to Psmith himself, the P is silent “as in pshrimp” and he added it to distinguish himself from other Smiths. Some scholars believe that the “P.” in P. G. Wodehouse was in fact a psmithization by G. Wodehouse, however others believe this ptheory is a bunch of pbaloney.
Needless to say, psmithisize is pronounced the same way as smithisize although it means something completely different.

Bob: Honey, now that we've both read Cat's Cradle you'll have to admit that we form a duprass. We're clearly a karass of two people with a bond so strong that even our children cannot invade our union.
Carol: No way. While it's true that neither of us care squat about the kids, Bokonism claims that the two members of a duprass die within a week of each other. Not me, babe. You kick the bucket and I'm finding myself a new squeeze post-haste.
Bob: All that kicking off together is just foma but just to make it clear, let's psmithisize it and say we are members of the same pduprass. Deal?
Carol: Deal.

Second Person: Ooooh, that sounds interesting, but I want three ice cubes. Why is it called that?
Barman: Because one of you is going to get lucky and the other is going to get destroyed.
Second Person: Well, let's stop after this one drink.
First Person: That was the plan.
