Datalatrous

Partaking in datalatry; worshipping data; especially in the case when a researcher engages in data dredging wherein they re-analyze their data until they get the statistically significant result they want & then despite the fact that their data has no true correlation with the question they are addressing, they still cite it as the answer to a problem -- data in this case becomes a false idol.

The survey study on whether one is happier if one becomes a parent was datalatrous humbug. No matter whether the data indicates that more people are happier being parents or not, it cannot properly answer the question. This is because it cannot study parents who became and never were parents at the same time. It also cannot study how those who choose not to become parents would have felt if they did. Finitude in the end is what blocks researchers from coming to a conclusive answer in this tangible world.

sappy-sufferance

Patient endurance, during the pain inbrought via the excessively emotional scene from a drama, television program, anime, film, etcetera.

My appreciation of the K-dramas is borne of great sappy-sufferance.

borderline non sequitur

1. A statement that only just succeeds in logically following the statement that came before it.

2. A statement that logically follows the statement that came before it, but to an insignificant degree.

Adi: Cha' it makes sense, twas a borderline non sequitur though. You were quite roundabout in the way you were trying to explain your point. I almost thought you were about to continue that abrupt transition to it's endmost unrelated-ness. Where we would begin exploring a path of some non sequitur, but you just barely somehow inbrought all those tangential thoughts together to explain your point. I'm impressed.

Cynocentrism

1. Cynocentrism is a dominant or exclusive focus on dogs in theory or practice; or to the advocacy of this.1 Anything can be considered cynocentric when it is concerned exclusively with a doggies' (or a dog's) point of view
2.(political philosophy) A dog-centred, as opposed to human-centred, value system.
3. An ethical viewpoint that extends inherent value to all doggy life, regardless of its sentience.

Etymology
"Cyno" comes from the Greek word meaning “dog”

An individual's obsession with cynocentrism sometimes leads one to believe that a doggy's death, in a film, is much sadder than a human's death in a film.
