A slippery slope is the perceived danger of a "bad" behavior or situation easily degrading into an even worse behavior or situation, resulting in a downward spiral.
Declaring that something leads to a slippery slope is a common tactic in fearmongering.
Following this definition, a "slippery-slope slippery slope" is a situation in which people accept baseless slippery-slope arguments too readily. This leads to the inevitable acceptance of dangerously ridiculous slippery-slope arguments.

"...but once you give a pass to seemingly reasonable evidence-free slippery-slope arguments, you end up with people arguing that state-subsidised health insurance leads to death panels. It's a slippery-slope slippery slope!"

Get the Slippery Shrimp mug.This is a variation of the Clevelnad Steamer, the main difference is that when trying to deficate solid fecal matter square in the center of the recipients chest, a series of gaseous diarrhea like shit filled squirts exit the rectum. It is the force of the gases exspelling intermittent shots of runny shit on top of each other that causes this "skipping" effect. The end result is, well you guessed it, a chest filled with what looks like a combination of chili and chocolate sause.
I was in the middle of giving my girlfriend a mississippi mud skipper when I heard someone knock on the door. I guess I must have moved when I turned to look at the door because when I returned focus to my girlfriend, it looked like someone shot her in the face with a double barrel shit canon.
